US lawmakers vote to hold Trump ally Steve Bannon in criminal contempt

Description

US lawmakers have voted to hold Steven Bannon, a key ally of ex-president Donald Trump, in criminal contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena to testify before a panel investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol. The House of Representatives has voted to refer him to federal prosecutors to make a decision on whether to press charges, although the ensuing legal battle would likely play out over several months, potentially frustrating the probe.
