CNBC reported that the White House had preemptively agreed to limit the scope of questioning with former White House Staffer Steve Bannon. The White House argued, according to the report, that Executive Privilege covered his interactions over White House policy, and agreed to the questioning under the condition that the questions were restricted to 2016 campaign. The House has not stopped at campaign-related questioning, according to CNBC.  
 
Due to the privilege question, the White House was said to instruct Bannon not to answer questions that extended beyond the campaign. The White House has not formally asserted Executive Privilege, as the media ramifications would be problematic. The report claims that upon the White House’s intervention to urge the limitation of the scope of Bannon’s testimony, the House committee subpoenaed Bannon on the spot to answer the non-campaign questions; the result of that is not clear at the time of this writing. 
 
On Wednesday morning, Mueller’s office issued a Grand Jury subpoena to Bannon, according to the Associated Press, yet Bannon is under a ‘gag order’ from the White House, according to a top Democrat quoted in the story.  What is clear is that the legal maneuvering between the branches of government will continue; what isn’t clear is who has the authority to prevail.  The back and forth between so many committees test the internal procedures of the government as the swamp continues to fish for scandals.
