Steve Bannon Ordered To Report To Prison By Federal Judge
HuffPost
Bannon will serve a four-month sentence for his contempt of Congress conviction.
Steve Bannon, longtime ally to ex-President Donald Trump and former White House aide, was ordered to report to prison by July 1 to begin serving a four-month sentence for his 2022 contempt of Congress conviction.
Judge Carl Nichols granted prosecutors’ motion on Thursday to revoke Bannon’s bail after a three-judge appeals panel declined to overturn his conviction last month.
Bannon was convicted after defying a subpoena from the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Outside the D.C. courthouse following Nichols’ ruling, Bannon remained defiant.
“There’s not a prison built or a jail built that will ever shut me up,” he told reporters. “We’re gonna win this. We’re gonna win at the Supreme Court and we’re gonna win on Nov. 5.”
