Supreme Court orders review of Bannon's contempt conviction.

The U.S. Supreme Court has ordered a lower court to reconsider Steve Bannon’s conviction for contempt of Congress, potentially allowing the Justice Department to dismiss the case. This decision follows a request by the department to end the prosecution citing the “interests of justice.” Bannon, a former Trump aide, had already served a prison sentence for refusing to testify about the January 6 Capitol attack. The court also issued a similar order regarding former Cincinnati Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld, who was pardoned by Trump.
