Bannon's refusal to answer House Intel questions may be a sign that he isn't going to let their sham of an investigation use his testimony to muddy the waters.

Did he plead the Fifth, executive privilege, what?

Interesting timing of the Bannon matter but typical Dem tactics. This week a lot of big news is supposedly due to come out courtesy of Devin Nunes House Intelligence committee I believe. Dem Deflection.
At very least, the liberals will throw a few wrist-slashing parties.

But shhhh... Let them have something to get them through the week.

He did not plea the 5th in the house hearings, he just didn't answer to their satisfaction. He plans to be interviewed by Mueller uninhibited unless the White House takes some action.

The White House directed him not to answer any questions.

Bigger than Watergate, folks.

You so called educated Loonies are the least informed of all, courtesy of your Pravda propaganda.

Oh, let the Loonies get their hopes raised by crooked Conspiracy News Network. It's so much fun to see them cry afterwards. You'd think they'd get the joke by now. "Look, we got them to send the DNC more money! What will be our next story when this one fails, so we can still get them to contribute?"
Sorry guys, "alt collusion" isn't happening. You just need to get past it already

If Bannon and President Dumbass don't have anything to hide, why not just answer the questions?

You can't just refuse to answer a question once subpoenaed. You have to say why-wether the fifth, or executive privilege! This is clear contempt of congress.

Maybe I'm wrong but I think Bannon still feels loyalty to Trump. But he would throw Jared and Donny Jr under the bus in a heartbeat because they didn't like him and wanted him gone.

If true this is a sudden and dramatic escalation. Apparently the white house was more then willing to be open and honest....until actual questions were asked.
He'll talk eventually.

He won't be left a choice.

I think he's still got a Trump crush. The White House told him not to answer questions today--how are they going to make sure he stays shut up? Going to offer him some deal? Money? Promising to take him back, kisses and hugs? He still wants to be in charge of Trump as a puppeteer. and he'd love to get back in Trump's good graces.
