EXCLUSIVE: Court documents show how Steve Bannon racked up this $601,000 tab by engaging in a futile legal battle against the bipartisan Jan. 6 panel, who sought answers about Bannon's role in the violent MAGA assault on the Capitol building.
from the White House notifying Bannon’s team that President Joe Biden wouldn’t assert any executive privilege—thus significantly undermining the right-winger’s excuse.
Bannon got charged another $5,950 the next day, when Costello received a letter from Thompson rejecting the podcaster’s plea for time and watched the nighttime televised hearing in which the committee voted to hold Bannon in contempt. But the 71 pages of legal bills also show how Bannon—despite appearing to have steady financial support from a—routinely fell behind on his bills. And the documents show how Costello kept diligently working on Bannon’s case, despite his client’s financial tardiness.
By the time Costello had put in nearly 300 hours of work over five months, and billed just over a quarter-million dollars, Bannon had only forked over $6,611. He paid another $120,000 during the next few months as the bills kept piling up, using his podcast company’s bank account to wire the funds. Records show that Warroom LLC’s account at TD Bank wired the money.
But he noticeably stopped paying before his federal trial started during the summer of 2022—and never paid another cent to Costello’s firm after the team lost in court.
