A federal court in Washington on Friday sentenced Steve Bannon, who was an adviser to former US President Donald Trump (2017-2021), to four months in prison for refusing to collaborate with the legislative committee investigating the storming the capitol from January 6, 2021.

Judge Carl Nichols also accepted the US Attorney’s request that Bannon pay a fine, although he reduced the sum to $6,500, compared to the $200,000 requested by the Justice Department.
