The 'Law and Order' Republican Party Just Overwhelmingly Voted in Favor of Letting Steve Bannon Do Whatever He Wants

Cheney was one of only nine Republicans to vote in favor of the measure. Reps. Adam Kinzinger , Peter Meijer , Brian Fitzpatrick , Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler , Fred Upton , John Katko , Anthony Gonzalez , and Nancy Mace were the others. House Minority Whip Rep.

Cheney and Kinzinger are the only two Republicans who serve on the Jan. 6 Select Committee, which voted on Tuesday night to send the criminal-contempt resolution to the House. The committee has been investigating the events leading up to and surrounding the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, andwith ties to Trump. Bannon was the only one to defy the committee’s request for testimony, however, arguing that he was protected by executive privilege .

The committee has emphasized that it will do everything in its power to hold Bannon accountable for failing to comply with the subpoena. “Mr. Bannon has declined to cooperate with the select committee and is instead hiding behind the former president’s insufficient, blanket, and vague statements regarding privileges he has purported to invoke,” Chairman Thompson said last Thursday after Bannon informed the committee he would not show up for his testimony. “We reject his position entirely.

It's 'if you are a Repub we will allow you break all laws and if you are a Dem we will hang for things you didn't do' party.

The same Republicans that sent Susan McDougal to jail for 18 months during their 'throw a bunch of shit up against a wall and hope something sticks' Whitewater 'investigation?' The ones who impeached a President for a private consensual extramarital affair? Appalled by consent?
