Quick thread on Bannon guilty verdict
Note. Bannon's trial was NOT about Jan 6th - he WILL face that trial too. This was about Bannon stupidly attempting to conceal his crimes
Let's do a quick Thread
First. Understand.. we know the 2 dozen organizers, plotters, planners of January 6th. They will ALL go to prison, for at least a decade, most for Life. Including the few who get plea bargains in the Grand #Flippathon
Bannon is one of original planners
But today Bannon's guilty conviction is a BONUS for us. He becomes literally the first of the January 6th ORGANIZERS to go to prison. And as a bonus, this is EXTRA time in prison Bannon serves, above and beyond his role in January 6th because of this attempt to conceal his crimes
Then consider what a catastrophic calamity this is for Bannon. He FEARS prison. He begged Trump for a pardon. He RECEIVED a pardon. And this he did AFTER his pardon, so his pardon does not shield Bannon from these new convictions, and prison time
Then look at Bannon's absurdly stupid destructive behavior during this trial. That is a public record. When his ACTUAL trial starts for January 6th, Bannon will have a history of defying the law - convicted twice - that is part of his record making his NEXT trial WORSE
Now what happens next? Bannon will of course appeal this. That will take some months, but the circuit court will be unanimous against him, and SCOTUS will refuse to hear such a frivolous complaint. Then he goes to prison. It is LIKELY Bannon is in prison for his NEXT trial !!!
And next up, comes failed TV Clown Peter Navarro, another of the ORIGINAL planners of Jan 6th. He faces exact same predicament, we get his trial shortly & he gets same guilty verdict & same mandatory prison sentence. Enjoy this. The convictions have started !!!
Happy Bannon Day
