A jury was selected Monday for the trial of former Donald Trump advisor Steve Bannon for defying a subpoena to testify before lawmakers investigating the attack on the US Capitol.
US lawmakers have voted to hold Steven Bannon, a key ally of ex-president Donald Trump, in criminal contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena to testify before a panel investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol. The House of Representatives has voted to refer him to federal prosecutors to make a decision on whether to press charges, although the ensuing legal battle would likely play out over several months, potentially frustrating the probe.
