January 6 panel moves to hold Steve Bannon in criminal contempt
The committee investigating the January 6 Capitol Hill riot announced Thursday it is moving forward to hold Trump ally Steve Bannon in criminal contempt for refusing to comply with a subpoena, as his game of chicken with the House panel now enters a new and critical phase.

About time!
It's going to take a long time, and be a long process. But I would hope the People are successful. I'm fine with following a long process to the end. Do it once, give him an orange jumpsuit, and his friends will think twice before displaying contempt.
I suspect the People will be lucky to see this play-out by the midterms. But I do indeed hope it plays-out to the end, even if it's before the '24 election.
Of course, Bannon can always show-up at the hearing - at any point in the process - and claim the 5th to every question! This was a S.O.P. for many La Costra Nostra in the '60's.
Anyway, I'm taking great interest in this.
