Bannon Refused to Answer Committee Questions

https://politicalwire.com/2018/01/16/bannon-refused-answer-questions-house-committee/

"SNIP..........

Steve Bannon “refused to answer questions Tuesday from the House intelligence committee about his time in the White House, prompting panel members to subpoena him on the spot,” Politico reports.

“According to the source, Bannon’s attorney told the committee that he wouldn’t discuss anything about his time in the White House or during the transition after the 2016 election.”

It sure sounds like Bannon was trying to send a signal to the White House that he’s remaining loyal to President Trump.

and Bannon's lawyer is also Priebus' lawyer, which means Bannon has already made a deal with Mueller.
