Steve Bannon unfazed by contempt of Congress conviction: ‘If I go to jail, so be it’

Steve Bannon on Friday night didn’t seem fazed by his conviction on two counts of contempt of Congress — declaring in an interview, “If I go to jail, so be it.”

The former White House strategist offered up the nonchalant remarks in an appearance on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson just hours after he was found guilty on the contempt charges.

“If I go to jail, I go to jail,” the 68-year-old said.

“’I will never back off,” he continued. “I support Trump and the Constitution and I’m not backing off one inch. If I go to jail, so be it.”

Bannon faces a minimum sentence of 60 days in prison and a maximum of two years behind bars for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot, as well as a fine of up to $2,000. His sentencing was set for Oct. 21.
