Scum of the earth
Then push it out to 2024. The beat goes on.
So mostly convenient watching so many Trump people including Trump conveniently getting trial dates when Republicans get the opportunity to get back in control.
That’s ridiculous!
This is absolutely ridiculous 🙄!!! When will these people be held accountable?
So, let him go free, so he can keep screwing with our politics.
That's PATHETIC!!! Wy don't we just TRASH this USELESS - WOERTHLESS Juridical System once and for all. Beyond Embarrassing. SHAME!!
Sounds like the judge want to drag the trial as far as possible in case Trump get re-electe so can pardon Bannon if found guilty.
why? Why are these things dragged out for years?
This country , it's politics, it's laws is fricken joke. At this point I want to tell Putin to look for another to infiltrate. He is better off without our circus!
Gives him lots of time to do more crimes.
StellaBeat Outrageous!
The time has come for who is the supreme court to be elected by the people. Like electing a president
Sure... let's wait until election day to resolve this matter... wtf
I hope the judge allows cameras in there. Let the world watch it.
Total BS, who else in this country gets a year to prepare
WTAF!!! Why are these criminals keep getting away with crimes? I’ve had enough!!!

Privilege once again
Geezus krist! I don’t even care anymore. Just don’t show me his face anymore. He doesn’t exist to me.
therealzanetta Send Steve Bannon to Rikers until his trial date. These crooked judges make me sick. Poor people go to jail for not paying their parking tickets. These greedy rich jerks steal Millions and don't spend 10 minutes in the courtroom. Justice for the rich.
He is getting special treatment. This DOJ has been bought and paid for.
therealzanetta Of course not. These criminals have flouted the law for years then the courts just keep right on patting them on the back.
Doesn't everyone have a right to a speedy trial? Can others sue on his 'behalf' to make it happen sooner?
What kind of BULLSHIT is this?
Ridiculous Another corrupt republican bought judge
HemsleyMarty They all know how to drag this out. Being rich clearly has its privileges.
So that means if Republicans win anything we can kiss any sort of justice goodby
F’ing ridiculous!! 🤬
