Trump adviser Bannon reports to jail to serve sentence

Steve Bannon, a prominent rightwing figure and former senior adviser to Donald Trump, reported to prison Monday to begin serving a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress.

Bannon, 70, spoke defiantly as he showed up at a federal prison in Connecticut to start doing time behind bars. He was convicted of defying a subpoena to testify before the congressional panel that investigated the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol by Trump supporters.
