A federal grand jury has indicted Steve Bannon on two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena issued by the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6th insurrection. On this special episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the news and the prospects for similar charges to be brought against Mark Meadows, Jeffrey Clark, and other Trump aides who — like Bannon — refuse to comply with the committee’s investigation. 

Attend “Midnight in Washington with Honorable Adam Schiff and Preet Bharara,” Thursday, November 18, at 7pm in NYC.
