American right-wing populist ideologue and former White House adviser to Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, reported to a federal prison in the northeastern United States on Monday to begin serving his sentence for obstructing the congressional investigation into the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, an AFP photographer observed.
“I am proud to go to prison today if that is what it takes to stand up to Joe Biden,” said the influential figure of the ultra-conservative movement before entering Danbury prison ( State of Connecticut). He must now serve four months behind bars.
