SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Unfortunately, the unequal standard of justice is still on full display tonight after former Trump adviser Steve Bannon was indicted by the Biden DOJ for contempt of Congress -- by the way, I have complete contempt for Congress, most of them, anyway -- for not complying with the subpoena as part of the Democrats' sham, predetermined outcome January 6 probe. Where's the probe on the summer riots of 2020?

But ask yourself, where are the indictments for [former FBI Director James] Comey, [former FBI Deputy Director Andrew] McCabe? You might remember the Horowitz report. Yes, they referred them to some of the very same things that Republicans, conservatives, names you know got arrested and charged with and even convicted on. [Former FBI official Peter] Strzok, [former FBI lawyer Lisa] Page, the rest of this deep state cabal, for their role in what was the biggest abuse of power corruption scandal in history.

And remember back in 2012 when [former Attorney General] Eric Holder, he was held in contempt? Why didn't the DOJ ever indict him? And what about former IRS official Lois Lerner? She was held in contempt, she never got charged. But we only charge Steve Bannon? 

And according to multiple reports, Bannon is the first person to be indicted for contempt of Congress since 1983. Of course, if you're a conservative, you get five years in jail for jaywalking. If you're a Democrat, you pretty much can commit any crime and you're not held accountable for anything. Now, we know there's one standard for Democrats and one standard for the rest of us.
