Bannon had broadcast his defiance on the social media site Gettr, prosecutors said, posting that he told lawmakers he would"NOT comply" on Oct. 8, 2021, after the first committee deadline had passed. Defense attorney Evan Corcoran argued Bannon had made a mistake with the subpoena dates, which he called"placeholders." Corcoran also asserted that government witness Amerling had donated to Democratic political candidates and had been part of the same book club as prosecutor Gaston.Prosecutors said the effort to inject politics in the case amounted to a smokescreen to confuse the jury.
