WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court removed a key hurdle Monday and set the stage for the Justice Department to toss out the charges against President Trump’s ally Steve Bannon for defying congressional subpoena demands in 2022. Bannon already did jail time from July to October 2024 after being convicted of the contempt of Congress charges, but the Trump administration is seeking to toss the case nonetheless as a symbolic gesture. In its order list on Monday, the high court agreed to vacate an appeals court ruling upholding the conviction against Bannon and kick the case back to a district court judge in DC.
