    Schiff says WH imposed a “gag order” that was “breathtaking” in scope to deny Bannon from answering questions about transition and his time in the WH; Conaway says subpoena remains in effect for Bannon

        Bannon should be on the Title 5 list, if so, he is barred from communicating with WH under 18 USC 207.https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/207 …

        Good get, Fraser! This would make those communications a violation of that statute. In addition, any instructions to withhold evidence would show intent, which put the teeth into a charge of Obstruction of Justice.

        Richard W Painter has been expressing his displeasure with WH/Bannon communications since Bannon departed, & saying it violates this statute. So, it wasn't me. Also, he must be on the Title 5 list for the statute to apply. Since he was a top advisor he should be on the list.

        Yes. And I follow Painter also, as many of us do, but you were the one who caught the relevance of it and brought it to us. So, again, good get, brother.

        WH has demanded Bannon not talk about his time in WH and the transition but the Peter Smith-Flynn plot to "find HRC's deleted emails" with help from Russian hackers was during the campaign... Maybe he would give up the goods there – thought he may just blame it all on Flynn...

        our thread branched off in another direction... I think maybe he doesn't have a deal w/Mueller, yet, and may not be able to talk because he may incriminate himself

        Then why is his lawyer consulting with the WH on what Bannon can answer? Earlier, @RepSpeier said Bannon wanted to answer questions but was being compelled not to. @RepAdamSchiff said they would recess bc lawyer had to call WH & seek counsel... Not normal.https://twitter.com/dcpoll/status/953436488162791426 …

        After cmte subpoenaed, Bannon's lawyer contacted WH, which doubled down on demand he not answer questions. Bannon refused to answer questions EVEN UNDER SUBPOENA.

        I think it could be a mix of various things based on different topics/questions, but it's just my speculation - and you're right, totally not normal!

        Whitehouse is risking an obstruction charge so you would expect that Bannon can torch them. Mueller will move fast to put him in the grand jury and let the district court rule on the privilege assertion. This is where Trump having F- legal team will become a big deal.

        I remember 45 saying that if this investigation continues, people will die. Nobody asked him what he meant by that. Maybe these folks are scared of being killed. Many Russians have died mysteriously.

        Yup. We had seven or eight Russians rubbed out on the Upper Eastside in the last 18 months. Drumpf eats McDs because he is afraid of being poisioned !
