for bannon. judges don t like it when parties can t work out stuff among themselves and they run into course, and that s particularly true here, given bannon s specific claim. he s basically saying he s complaining that he can t publicly discuss the contents of certain documents, and i have a very easy suggestion for him if he s worried about that, testify. this guy is afraid to go and tell the truth about what happened under oath, and that s what all of these legal skirmishes are about. that s the part that s frivolous. so i think he s going to lose these claims and it s going to bolden the house investigators. legally the only question for bannon is whether he has any right to defy. he hasn t provided any great legal argument there. when you get to the logic of it, you point out another big hole here, which is this isn t exactly the justice hiding out in a cabin because he doesn t
