Trump ally, convicted of contempt of Congress, fails in bid for emergency delay and must report to prison by Monday
The supreme court has rejected Steve Bannon’s attempt to avoid prison time following his contempt of Congress convictions.
In a brief order issued on Friday, the supreme court ordered Donald Trump’s former adviser, who has been challenging convictions over his defiance of subpoenas surrounding the House’s January 6 insurrection investigation, to report to prison by Monday.
“The application for release pending appeal presented to the chief justice and by him referred to the court is denied,” the order said.
