Bannon arrives at federal prison for 4-month sentence: 'I’m a political prisoner'

Former White House strategist Steve Bannon reported to a federal prison on Monday in Connecticut to start his four-month sentence on contempt of Congress charges, calling himself a "political prisoner" of Democrats.

Bannon ignored subpoenas from the House Jan. 6 Select Committee.

"I’m a political prisoner of Nancy Pelosi. I’m a political prisoner of Merrick Garland. I’m a political prisoner of Joe Biden, the corrupt Biden establishment,” Bannon said outside of the prison. “It’s Nancy Pelosi and Merrick Garland that made me a martyr, right? But martyrs die, and I’m far from dead, baby.”

Bannon said he is "proud to go to prison" to serve his sentence if that's what it takes to stand up to Democratic leaders.

"If this is what it takes to stand up to tyranny, if this is what it takes to stand up to the Garland corrupt criminal DOJ, if this is what it takes to stand up to Nancy Pelosi, if this is what it takes to stand up to Joe Biden, I’m proud to do it,” he said.
