Danbury, Connecticut – Former White House strategist Steve Bannon reported to federal prison on Monday to begin a four-month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena. Bannon, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, is the second ex-Trump aide to be imprisoned for contempt of Congress after Peter Navarro.

Both Bannon and Navarro were found guilty of not complying with subpoenas from the House Select Committee investigating the events of January 6, 2021. Despite his claims that he was following legal advice regarding executive privilege, the courts did not allow Bannon to argue his case before the jury.

Before his prison sentence, Bannon, a conservative podcaster and vocal Trump supporter, maintained a busy schedule. He even attempted, but failed, to persuade Trump to skip a presidential debate. Bannon’s confidence in maintaining his media platform, “War Room,” during his absence remains unwavering.

As Bannon begins his time in the low-security Danbury Federal Correctional Institution, his world is set to drastically change. Inmates at the facility do not have internet access and communication is restricted to monitored emails without attachments. Bannon’s access to his audience through his media platform will be severely limited while in prison.

Despite his impending confinement, Bannon remains steadfast in his support for Trump’s 2024 campaign. He anticipates having a more significant impact on the campaign from behind bars. As Bannon goes through the intake process at the prison, he is prepared to acclimate to life in his new surroundings.

Although Bannon’s time in prison may restrict his communication with the outside world, his dedication to his political pursuits remains unyielding. Bannon’s supporters, however, will not be able to reach him through letters, as he expressed his intention not to read any correspondence during his incarceration.
