Save the date: Leader Hoyer has announced that the full House will vote on the Jan. 6 committee's criminal contempt report for Steve Bannon on Thursday, October 21.

Rep. Perlmutter to Jordan and Gaetz: “I’ve never heard such an effort to obfuscate the question .. This Congress is within it’s full rights to demand the truth from Mr. Bannon, to demand that he appear. If he chooses, Mr. Gaetz, to plead the 5th Amend, that’s his prerogative.”

The House Rules Committee has advanced the resolution recommending Steve Bannon be held in contempt of Congress for refusal to comply with the Jan. 6 committee subpoena. It was a 9-4 party line vote.

Matt Gaetz now testifying at House Rules Committee in opposition to holding Steve Bannon in contempt for defying subpoena in Jan. 6 probe. His testimony follows Jim Jordan’s. “All of this is ridiculous,” Gaetz said

Jan. 6 committee releases:
- Letter from Bannon attorney requesting a postponement
- Letter from Thompson rejecting that request
- WH letter calling Bannon's executive privilege arguments "not justified"

Liz Cheney: "Mr. Bannon's and Mr. Trump's privilege arguments do, however, appear to reveal one thing: They suggest that President Trump was personally involved in the planning and execution of January 6th, and this committee will get to the bottom of that."

The three dogs have been stranded for weeks in an abandoned yard covered with volcanic ash on the island of La Palma.

The drone operator will have just four minutes to lure a dog to the net, and another four minutes to fly it out 2/5

A Spanish drone operator received permission to try to rescue three emaciated dogs trapped near a volcano in the Canary Islands, by catching them with a remote-controlled net and flying them out over a stream of lava https://t.co/WCqadr4IfJ 1/5

They have been fed by drones dropping packages of food, but until now no one has been able to figure out how to rescue them. Helicopters are banned from flying to the area because of hot gas that can damage their rotors 3/5
