    Bannon's worst nightmare: Out of the gutter and into the shower.
  • @khanafzal1700
    So if you're not scared stop whining about it and go to prison!!!
  • @franvarga709
    Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200.
  • @qwadratix
    I'm sick of watching these things walk right up to the wire and then have some inexplicable turnaround that lets the guilty walk free.
  • Imagine actually stealing from people, being arrested on a yacht and then pretending you are a political prisoner. The most outrageous level of entitlement because we live in the US -- meanwhile he's trying to outlaw immigration and throw women in jail for receiving healthcare.
  • He’s not a martyr, he’s a traitor who should be locked up for life or worse.
  • Why do media continue to not say former white supremacy leader, why wouldn't they say that.
  • @Shelley-em4op
    Bannon isn't a political prisoner.. All he is, is a legend of his "own" mind! PERIOD! Lock him up and throw away the key.
  • If he doesn’t care about going to prison…. Why is he fighting so hard to avoid it?
  • @johngodley256
    Since when are defying a court order and stealing money political. Get the scruff behind bars.
  • Why does Bannon always look like he just spent the night in a dumpster?
  • He stole from MAGA and MAGA still loves him. A perfect case of cognitive dissonance.
  • @tammy389
    Bannon in a concrete fart box for a couple of months when all he had to do is show up and say nothing is the ultimate self own.
  • They should extend his sentence by four years for delaying it so long.
  • @hangdogit
    Make it 4 years for BAD BEHAVIOR. -- Treason.
  • @RobertEskuri
    He's just like Alex Jones. Sure the money is nice. But persuading others to be violent on your behalf is the power he craves.
  • @luvspaiste
    I'm a psych nurse and I work with homeless people who are more put together than Steve Bannon. A prison jumpsuit is a fashion upgrade.
  • Access to the internet in prison is so restricted its almost non existent
  • @gregorbos
    WHY will prisoner Bannon be permitted to communicate, engage and stir up his ugly messaging from prison? He should be locked up for his sentence and we shouldn't be hearing from him.
