But I brought up those cases because you mentioned Bannon and Navarro. And actually in those cases, those were the only 2 who the DOJ pursued for "Contempt of Congress", and who ended up serving time, where Executive Privilege was argued (although in one case, it wasn't even invoked initially). Many of the others subpoenaed were semi-cooperating so it never went as far as those two.

from what I can tell, the legality of this privilege remains undecided, both Bannon and Navarro went to prison for it cadoman Jun 2025 #9

Bannon wasn't in the administration during the time period leading up to J6 BumRushDaShow Jun 2025 #13

true but his case involved another salient point: TFG did invoke executive privilege w/respect to Bannon's conversations cadoman Jun 2025 #15
