The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected Steve Bannon's emergency request to remain free while he appeals his conviction for contempt of Congress. Bannon, a former adviser to President Donald Trump, was convicted in July 2022 for defying subpoenas from the House January 6 committee. As a result of the Supreme Court's decision, Bannon must report to federal prison by Monday, July 1, to begin serving his four-month sentence. The court's decision was made without any public dissents.
