WASHINGTON—A judge on Monday declined to delay the contempt of Congress trial of former President Donald Trump’s former adviser Steve Bannon, just one week before it is set to begin.
Bannon was indicted last year for refusing to answer questions from the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol.
Bannon told the panel over the weekend he was ready to testify, a change of heart from days before he was due to be tried for contempt of Congress.
