So YES the DOJ will do that, and NO it’s not lip service

Post is for those that are already saying otherwise

A school board member from Satellite Beach FL is terrorized by the anti-mask rabble. Her home is vandalized, false child abuse claims are filed against her (requiring invasive exams on her children from the authorities), and her life is threatened.

Bannon, and his cult leader still make inflammatory claims about the election and openly call for an insurrection - they are free to continue their attacks and Bannon, presumably, still walks the streets.

Us and Them: no contest.

at the Capitol on January 6, and Steve Bannon (From Woodward/Costa's Peril).

Millie concluded that some were Brown Shirts, a U.S. version of the Nazi Party's paramilitary wing, and that it was a planned revolution.

"Steve Bannon's vision coming to life. Bring it all down, blow it up, burn it, and emerge with power."

During the November 5, 2020 edition of his webcast, Bannon called for the beheadings of Anthony Fauci, the government's top infectious diseases expert, and FBI Director Christopher Wray. Bannon said that if it were up to him, after beheading Fauci and Wray, "I'd put the heads on pikes" and display them outside the White House "as a warning to bureaucrats" who dared oppose Trump. By the end of the day, Facebook and YouTube had deleted the video from their platforms, and Twitter had permanently banned his account for glorifying violence. Mailchimp also disabled Bannon's email newsletter.[261] The next day, Bannon was dropped by a lawyer who had been defending him against federal charges of fraud

in essence, too. The "red in tooth and claw" following he's talking to are eager for public executions, before or after "trials" for treason.

smashing of laws and norms SOP, leaving upholders of the law looking for ways to block behaviors there are no effective stops for, and beheadings and disappearances would be very definitive faits accompli.

How disappointed some must have been that Pence wasn't hung on the steps of the Capitol as a soul-searing lesson to those who'd oppose tRump.

Arrest and imprison Bannon's body odor, to start with. Whatever remains should be pretty easy to deal with.
