House GOP Moves to Revoke January 6 Subpoenas for Trump Aides
Resolution aims to rescind subpoenas and contempt charges against Bannon, Navarro, Meadows, and Scavino.
- The resolution, introduced by Reps. Burlison, Biggs, and Massie, seeks to nullify subpoenas issued by the January 6 Committee.
- It also aims to withdraw contempt of Congress charges against Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, who were convicted and sentenced to prison.
- The measure has garnered support from 24 Republican co-sponsors but faces criticism for potentially undermining the rule of law.
- Former January 6 Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson asserts the resolution will have no legal impact.
- Even if passed, the resolution is unlikely to affect the prison sentences of Bannon and Navarro.
