In this episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce discuss the House’s vote to hold former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon in contempt for defying a subpoena to testify in the January 6th attack investigation, and the start of jury selection in the trial of the three men who stand charged with killing Ahmaud Arbery. They also break down the Supreme Court’s decision to schedule emergency oral argument for next week in DOJ’s challenge to Texas’s restrictive abortion law. The Court will determine whether the federal government has standing to sue Texas to block enforcement of the law and whether Texas can deputize private citizens to enforce the law.
