SDNY sends response to Steve Bannon’s email to the judge requesting dismissal of the indictment. Link to it. If interested in pardon law worth a read. And Audrey Strauss is still the US Attorney.
1. Something odd is going on in the McGahan House subpoena saga. McGahn says Biden DOJ agrees to delay the En Banc argument (a big deal) scheduled for Feb 23. The House objects. Link to the filings.
