Jan. 6 Hearings MegaThread

I really hope that the NSA has been tasked with tracking everything people in trump’s orbit are up to.

There’s an old PostIt note somewhere that says that the NSA can’t spy on Americans.

Some fun bits from coverage of the Steve Bannon trial that demonstrate how far his status has fallen since Trump vacated Washington. He promised fireworks before the trial but he comes across as a disheveled has-been goon who can’t even make enough of a spectacle to make people take notice of him anymore.

  • The WaPo describes him as a “right-wing podcaster.”
  • “The Stephen K. Bannon contempt of Congress trial doesn’t have the high-pressure feel of other high-profile cases. The spectator benches aren’t full, and the line to get in this morning wasn’t notably long. There are cameras outside the courthouse but no demonstrators or other interested people.”
  • “Bannon also has three pens attached to his outermost shirt, like a restaurant waiter. But he has nothing to write on.”

But he used to be a disheveled well-connected goon.

I read somewhere earlier today that described he was wearing multiple shirts on top of one another with a blazer on top of that. Weird.

Kevlar underoos maybe?

That’s been his thing for a long time: one button-up shirt under another. It’s like Steve Bannon is the world’s most off-putting superhero and the secret identity he hides under his business shirt is also Steve Bannon.

Or maybe this is just his version of molting.

If Steve Bannon isn’t Hydra it’s because he failed his audition.

I mean, those Hydra dudes were evil but at least they didn’t dress like total slobs. Hugo Boss from top to bottom.
