The House Special Committee voted unanimously that Bannon despised Congress in favor of criminal punishment.

According to CBS News on the 19th, the Special Committee of the House of Representatives investigating the riots in the U.S. Capitol on January 6 unanimously voted on the evening of the 19th that Steve Bannon, a senior strategic adviser to former U.S. President Trump, despised Congress, on the grounds that it refused to testify in court against the subpoena.

According to the report, Benny Thompson, a U.S. Democratic member of the House of Representatives and chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said before voting, "I expect the House of Representatives will quickly refer this case to the Department of Justice, and the U.S. prosecutors will perform their duties to despise Congress. Prosecute Mr. Bannon." CBS stated that Bannon was ordered to attend the committee hearing last week, but his lawyer said that in accordance with the instructions of the then U.S. President Trump’s legal team, Bannon refused to provide testimony in court or provide relevant supporting documents. .Therefore, on the evening of the 18th local time, a special committee of the US House of Representatives had recommended that it be tried in contempt of Congress.
