Former Trump White House strategist Steve Bannon was sentenced to four months in prison Friday, three months after his conviction on charges of contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the special House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols granted a defense request that the flamboyant adviser to former President Donald Trump be allowed to remain free pending appeal.
