A federal judge in Washington, D.C., at a hearing Thursday ordered former Trump White House aide Steve Bannon to report to jail by July 1 to begin serving a four-month sentence for his criminal contempt of Congress conviction.The order by Judge Carl
Nichols came three weeks after federal prosecutors urged him to lift a stay on Bannon’s sentence pending an appeal of his conviction for failing to comply with a subpoena from a House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.A federal
appeals court panel in a unanimous ruling on May 10 upheld Bannon’s conviction in the case.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — After being ordered to report for incarceration on
July 1 following a failed attempt to remain free during the appeal
process, former Trump White House advisor Steve Bannon admitted that he
was looking forward to a hot shower, shave, and clean clothes in prison.
The conservative firebrand was ordered by a federal judge to report to
prison next month to serve a four-month sentence for contempt of
Congress, which will allow Bannon the long-awaited opportunity to bathe,
comb his hair, and have his clothing laundered for the first time in years.
"Honestly, I could use a wash," Bannon reportedly told his attorney
after the judge's order was given. "Though I adamantly maintain my
innocence and point out that other people have done the same thing and
were not sent to prison, I'd be remiss if I didn't concede that having a
hot shower, a shave, and a change of clothes didn't sound appealing. I
hear I'll even get three hot meals a day while I'm there. I guess being
sent to prison does have its upside."
Those closest to Bannon said this may be a good thing for him. "He's a
great guy," one insider said. "Spending time behind bars might help him actually look presentable for once. You've seen him, right? Scruffy
whiskers… unkempt hair… I don't know the last time he washed that green jacket he wears all the time. I think he sleeps in it. Anyway, we might
see a whole new Steve Bannon when he gets out."
At publishing time, Bannon had reportedly told friends that he was even
more excited to report for his prison sentence after learning inmates
get free haircuts.
