This is correct. They convicted him despite Tromp waiving the EP and allowing him to testify prior to the trial, which he agreed to. It's garbage.

Cross examine allows someone to speak. During public congressional investigation committees during Trump Presidency were filled with Republicans talking over and interrupt those testifying.

Sorry your party did not get the chance to make the proceedings like that of a Jerry Springer show; again.
This is a terrible practice for a body that can refer charges for prosecution.

Garbage? Explain… even ignoring Rain’s insist on talking about privilege to my discussion on order.

Mr. Bannon's tenure as a White House employee ended in 2017

The committee could assuredly still request Bannon to discuss event before Jan 6 2020 while ignoring the time before his tenure. Still making it illegal for Bannon refuse the request.

Conversations with the president after his tenure were not off limit.

Plus

Released on 10/8/2021
And even if the committee was "inclined to accept the unsupported premise" that executive privilege reaches communications between Bannon and Trump, the letter notes that Bannon "does not enjoy any form of absolute immunity from testifying or producing documents in response to a Congressional subpoena."

Announced on 10/18/2021
January 6 committee rejects Bannon's executive privilege claim

Followed up by President Biden saying on 10/26/2021
He Disallowed executive privilege from the previous president being allowed.
This is Biden’s right
”The power of the Executive Branch is vested in the President of the United States“ (note not from Wikipedia)

Yes I know the committee has disallowed the EP invocation.

That's...the problem. There's no basis for this in history or law.

When was the last time a sitting president tried to overthrow the U.S. government just because he lost an election?

Non sequitur. Not the topic.

Right and then you talked about something else in history. That's why it doesn't apply.

Never, and neither did Trump.

But I'm old enough to remember this charade kicked off JAN 6 2017.. before the Russia Hoax charade, before the impeachment-based-on-a-phone call to your Ukrainian Hero charade, before the COVID mail in vote charade.. and on and on
