Steve Bannon is found GUILTY of contempt of Congress for defying his January 6 subpoena:

Trump advisor now faces up to a year in federal prison after jury took three hours to reach verdict

The jury found Steve Bannon guilty of a misdemeanor contempt of Congress charge

Bannon thanked the judge and jury, but said he only had one disappointment after he was found guilty: 'The gutless members of that show trial J6 committee didn't have the guts to come down here and testify'

DOJ lawyer Gaston said that Bannon made an 'intentional' choice not to comply and said his executive privilege argument does not carry weight

'His belief that he had an excuse not to comply does not matter, that is not a defense to contempt,' she said

Bannon's attorney suggested the trial was politically motivated and accused the DOJ of bringing in biased witnesses

Bannon declined to speak in his own trial

His attorneys wrapped their case without presenting a defense to jurors
