He'd better be careful that he doesn't end up in Mueller's net with the rest of the reprobates. Sounds to me like he's doubling down on obstruction of justice.

document from production. If that happened Justice Department would request a Privilege Log identifying date, sender, recipient and general description of document sufficient for Justice Department to determine the applicability of the stated privilege. If the defendant didn't establish the prima facie (on its face) applicability of the stated privilege then the Justice Department could file a Motion to Compel requesting that the Court compel production or at least review the document in camera (ie in Court by Judge) to determine whether the document was privileged. Once the judge ruled the losing party might seek to appeal the ruling. But right now the cat is out of the bag. There is a small exception for privileged documents mistakenly produced by accident but not when voluntarily produced without assertion of privilege. This scenario plays out in almost 100% of major litigation.

Bannon proves he's a Buffoon-Magna Cum Laude graduate of Trump Law School

and most of these communications probably wouldn't qualify anyhow.

no doubt appealing to the crazies he wanted to, including Trump? My guess is this is brand promotion. His product is chaos and destruction of western liberal democracy. And while Trump's still in the WH...

Stevie Miller? Who is listening to/associating with this powerhouse of multiple shirt-wearing weirdness??

Oy!!

go fuck off and find a nice spot to decompose.

the decomp began LONG ago...

of walking into Mueller's office and farting.

Get a shave and a haircut. And while you're at it, some marbles. Prior testimony is like the proverbial horse that's left the barn. Closing the barn door won't change one damn thing. Idiot. I so hope Mueller burns his sorry ass down.

is legal?

Attempting to mess up our democratic system is also legal?

This is bullshit!

I think that Executive Privilege might be like Attorney-Client Privilege- not valid if used to cover a crime. Bannon would be much smarter to get out and stay out of the entire matter, unless he wants to expose himself to legal liability, like Obstruction of Justice.

but the time to do it was 15 months ago. Politically, now, it won't play with the public, it won't play with Democrats on Capitol Hill, it won't play with moderate Republicans who have just gone along to get along. It's the plot for a fantasy novel. It's political jujitsu that cannot be injected into a hyper-polarized, hyper-political body politic. Nixon tried it, and no one really understood what was happening at the time. Without WaPo Nixon might have succeeded.

Trump only has credibility with Fox News and his base. His tweets are a lasting record of his intentions and crookery. Smothering the investigation will produce impeachment and mass demonstrations. It would be over before the strategy reached MTP.

always the patriot isn't he?

What are the chances that Steve just got a notice he is under indictment?

Perhaps Steve should be told that, by far the most serious of the allegations including Treason, Money Laundering, Bank Fraud, etc.etc.etc. are FAR more serious than the Obstruction charge that was committed while he was in office. The rest of this crap is a financial enema into a 40 year crime family history that is the Trump crime family and has nothing to do with any "executive privilege" that he believes the orange genius can hide behind. BTW, what were YOU doing before election. Oh, that's right, committing felonies while working with/for Cambridge Analytica w/the Mercers.

Cambridge Analytica, et al.

He knows his dirty laundry is about to be aired out. Sending an S.O.S to trump to try to save his own butt.

As they get into their jump suits and get into the black SUV's.

Another long day.

So he can't bother anyone

Liquor talk.

Sober up dude. Enter a program. Go to meetings. Get a life.

guilty of multiple crimes and the entire administration is totally corrupt and treasonous.

That's about as realistic as Bannon's proposals. And this drunken buffoon is considered an intellectual? Only by the reich-wing's impossibly low standards.

A Stabler Genius! A retroactive privilege-r. A bucket of radioactive pus.

He's so dumb and starved for attention that he either doesn't know or doesn't care that it's a bad idea to publicize his goofy little plot to have the pResident of the United States obstruct justice.

He's just trying to up the web site hits on Breitbart so he can pay the bill at the liquor store.

.........

And didn't Bannon publically say he fully cooperated and told Mueller "everything"?

so he plays both sides against the middle to keep the discord going.

Sometimes I stop to wonder how people are born and raised and eventually evolve to become a person like this, a literal Faust.

He's a nihilist.

That pretty much sums up the lot of them.

Hope for all his posturing he ends up indicted.

Have Trump act like he is guilty.

Go for it.
