Steve Bannon was sentenced to four months behind bars and a $6,500 fine on Friday for his contempt of Congress conviction. Bannon left the Trump administration in 2017. Following Bannon’s indictment last fall, other Trump allies appeared to take the consequences of blowing off the Jan. 6 committee more seriously. It was yet another astounding act from a president unbridled by any sense of the responsibility the office carries. While these statements do not prove his guilt, they certainly place him in a circle of possible co-conspirators.
