The Supreme Court has declined to intervene on behalf of Steve Bannon, a former Trump White House adviser, who must begin serving a four-month prison sentence for contempt of Congress. The ruling was issued in a one-sentence order on Friday. Bannon's sentence is set to start on Monday at a low-security federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut, where he will be housed alongside sex offenders and violent criminals. Bannon, who considers himself a 'political prisoner,' has vowed that his WarRoom platform will not be silenced. He has urged his supporters to focus on 'total victory' and not to send him letters in prison. Despite his incarceration, Bannon plans to continue his political activities and influence.
