WTF? Bannon given more time to sort out with WH what he can tell Hill investigators

[spanone]

Washington (CNN)The House Intelligence Committee has agreed to give former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon until the end of the month to return to the panel and finish his closed-door interview, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the matter.

Bannon's attorney, in a letter to the committee shared with CNN, said the committee asked that his legal team work out with the White House the scope of the executive privilege President Donald Trump could potentially assert in the future.

Bannon was expected to return at 2 p.m. ET Thursday to respond to a subpoena issued during his closed-door testimony on Tuesday, when Republicans and Democrats were irritated by his refusal to answer questions relating to the transition and his time in the White House. Bannon refused to answer certain questions at the direction of White House lawyers who instructed that they might want to assert executive privilege.

The postponement follows an exchange of terse letters by the House panel and Bannon's attorney, William Burck.

1. With WH and with Mueller, I suspect. (n/t)

2. Nunes chairs the committee, the GOP controls it.

They're running interference for the White House. Party over country. Power above principles.

Elections have consequences.

3. YEP, as i suspected.

[Wellstone ruled]

4. Will not happen.

Mueller issued his Subpoena to short cut Nunes and his Gang from getting any Documents or verbal answers that might screw up his investigation. Nunes is all in with his attempt to spike the Trump Russia Gate Scandal.

Waiting for a Raid on Bannon's drug den any now.
