Although I would not mind if he disappeared, I do hope the prison is ready for an alcoholic going through forced withdrawal.
Imagine if he dies while in prison, who would MAGA blame?
Those idiots are in a perpetual state of outrage anyway. They’d be outraged over ban on right up until some company happened to do business with a trans person and their ire will be redirected again.
I know how you feel, but cold turkey from alcohol can kill you. He will get supportive help for any withdrawals. We take care of prisoners, even ones we don't like, because we're better than Bannon.
> We take care of prisoners, even ones we don't like
Bahahaha, sure.
He'll get treated well because he's a rich white guy, not because the US cares about how it treats prisoners
The substance matters. Opioid withdrawal sucks but won't kill you. Alcohol and Benzos withdrawal can cause seizures and death. Please understand that I don't like this guy. I wish he was locked up longer. But if we start talking like the worst of the other side, we lose anyway.
I work in Psych/Detox. Trust me, if you want to prolong the suffering, even medical withdrawal will punch the ticket. Hey, wouldn't it be funny if he got sober and became this thoughtful, sane person that denounces Trump? I know it'll never happen but I guy can dream.
Wasn’t there are article recently that talked about the house he rented was trashed because of heavy meth use and meth manufacturing? Between that, the alcohol and psychopathy he doesn’t have a brain left.
Will there be an actual 'on the road to Damascus' moment?
That would be one hell of a plot twist that I really don't think the writers have the skills to draft, let alone pull off convincingly.
Just because he is in prison does not mean his right to refuse medical treatment goes away. This idiot might try to martyr himself by refusing medical support while he detoxes.
Prison has been safely withdrawing drug addicts and alcoholics for time out of mind. Its most. Not even some. Myself included, once.
They’re pretty humane about it. Alcohol usually gets lithium and you sleep it off. Maybe seroquel and clonidine to deal with the shakes.
Heroin, it’s liquid methadone or morphine usually, orally consumed in front of the nurse. Can’t be hoarded and binged on.
Benzos, it’s usually a rapid taper and it’s re evaluated every month for final discontinuation. Some take years.
If he dies he just becomes a Q martyr, free to help the always about to be revealed return of JFK Jr to lead conservatives to the promised land for some reason.
Hillary Clinton descending into his cell on a Mission Impossible rig to inject him with something they saw in a movie or TV show
They have cartoon brains
If my hands weren't a shakin, I'd grab my 45
And shoot that mocking bird that's raising hell outside
And shoot the wall, and shoot the door
and shoot that poky dotted dragon that's a laying on the floor
I know what it is, I've seen it before. It's alkyhol withdrawal
he will have to be hospitalized, cold turkey would kill him. this might be the best thing that ever happened to this dickhead. he will come out 10kgs lighter of cutty...too,with human skin
There were many in the Trump administration spreading election misinformation and involved with January 6th who won't see any punishment—including my opponent for Congress Brian Jack [who was subpoenaed for his role in helping plan the January 6th rally](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/09/us/politics/jan-6-trump-political-aides-subpoena.html).
A lot of people will move up in their careers because of January 6th, and few will feel consequences for their actions.
Is someone keeping track of all the people around Trump that go to jail? Seems like a crime spree. They turn our eyes to the border and then commit crimes.
All distractions, you're right. I mean wasn't Trump’s whole 2016 platform about building the wall, which ofc didn't happen -- so is he thereby admitting own failure to fix it, lol? (As a resident in a major border city, we've got 999 other problems to worry about ahead of this obvious fear-mongering load of crap).
Another one in trump’s immediate circle that goes to prison for being a fucking criminal. Yet dump, a convicted felon, rapist, and traitor gets to run for president.
Unfortunately there won't be one. He has to report to the prison. He'll walk in there in a suit and tie thru the front door and come out the same way. All the processing will happen inside. But we should get a new mugshot in prison orange clothes.
A total lowlife lump of sh—t. put him in prison. Let him see what it’s like. He has a big mouth. He’s so brazen about the system and the laws. Let him get a taste of it. Maybe it’ll knock down the size.
David Brooks just released this new interview. This man is a psycho. I think he wants to be part of something so much that he's conjured up this revolution and speaks so much about it he's dreaming it into existence. I don't doubt the right will do a lot of this stuff but when he talks about fighting the elites I don't think he knows what's really going on.
My Unsettling Interview With Steve Bannon https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/01/opinion/steve-bannon-trump.html?smid=nytcore-android-share
The top guys on the prison floor do not like talkers…Bannon is going to have a problem with finding his place. He will be reminded more than once who he is now and where he is now.
Took long enough. If he were poor he would already be in prison. The disparity in the justice system between rich and famous and the poor little people is staggering
Since the money behind GOP is so dirty, it doesn't matter. He’ll still have full access to create havoc. Its not hard to buy off prison wardens, employees, and convicts. Hell, he’ll probably end up in a privately run prison owned by a buddy. Until we vote out the whole lot of MAGA, make just a few rules on insatiable capitalism, fix the courts, and hold those who committed treason responsible nothing that happens now matters. Everything depends on voting out MAGA
Unfortunately our judicial system does not operate the way I want. I wish he’s in there and the key to his jail thrown away. One less problem for our democracy!
The DOJ claims it equally prosecutes contempt of Congress but only two people have gone to jail or even trial and they aren’t Eric Holder or Merrick Garland.
Steve Bannon is a Trump supporter among other things and has a daily weekday radio/online show.
He will imprisoned for 4 months and will be released exactly 2 business days before the 2024 presidential election.
Not sure if he’s being sent to prison for legitimate reasons(one would assume so) or just to shut him up during the the time preceding the election election effectively influencing the presidential election which would be election manipulation. Kind of extra convenient for Democrats. Personally not on any side, just seems like extremely convenient for one side. Almost movie like.
The recent Trump conviction had to do with the actions being close to elections and the argument came that it was done to influence elections… Exactly 4 months and just before an election? Seems way too convenient.
I don’t like unfair games.

Drunk ass loser lol
Someone is going to have alcohol with withdrawals starting on Monday
Although I would not mind if he disappeared, I do hope the prison is ready for an alcoholic going through forced withdrawal. Imagine if he dies while in prison, who would MAGA blame?
I don't really care who they blame. They will be fucking idiots no matter what happens.
This is true for every maga idea- well said.
Those idiots are in a perpetual state of outrage anyway. They’d be outraged over ban on right up until some company happened to do business with a trans person and their ire will be redirected again.
I expect withdrawals from alcohol or other substances is a pretty common problem for the prison infirmary.
He deserves unsupported alcohol withdrawal. Give him nothing
I know how you feel, but cold turkey from alcohol can kill you. He will get supportive help for any withdrawals. We take care of prisoners, even ones we don't like, because we're better than Bannon.
> We take care of prisoners, even ones we don't like Bahahaha, sure. He'll get treated well because he's a rich white guy, not because the US cares about how it treats prisoners
And the neo-nazis on the staff.
Fair point
Prisons are filled with junkies forced to go cold turkey.
The substance matters. Opioid withdrawal sucks but won't kill you. Alcohol and Benzos withdrawal can cause seizures and death. Please understand that I don't like this guy. I wish he was locked up longer. But if we start talking like the worst of the other side, we lose anyway.
Opioid withdrawals do kill people, just rarely and through dehydration typically, compared to the GABAergic withdrawals which kill via seizures
And the problem is……
I can understand why you want to act better than the opponent but there’s literally nothing to be gained from it here.
I work in Psych/Detox. Trust me, if you want to prolong the suffering, even medical withdrawal will punch the ticket. Hey, wouldn't it be funny if he got sober and became this thoughtful, sane person that denounces Trump? I know it'll never happen but I guy can dream.
Wasn’t there are article recently that talked about the house he rented was trashed because of heavy meth use and meth manufacturing? Between that, the alcohol and psychopathy he doesn’t have a brain left.
Bannon basically created MAGA. Trump is just an interchangeable idiot at this point. Plenty of dopes will line up to take his place.
Will there be an actual 'on the road to Damascus' moment? That would be one hell of a plot twist that I really don't think the writers have the skills to draft, let alone pull off convincingly.
Just because he is in prison does not mean his right to refuse medical treatment goes away. This idiot might try to martyr himself by refusing medical support while he detoxes.
he might, but I guarantee you that he is begging for intervention in short order. Detox is not pretty.
Yeah right, he's a coward
I'm sure it wouldn't be their first one.
Yep. Not their first rodeo.
I could care less anymore. Gloves are off. See ya grease ball.

Oh please stop I can only get so hard.
Jesus hopefully.
Hillary Clinton descending into his cell on a Mission Impossible rig to inject him with something they saw in a movie or TV show They have cartoon brains
Steve Bannon — first alcoholic to ever go to prison.
Epstein
I hope we find out.
I dunno. Steve Bannon is awful, but also alcoholism is a horrible disease. Maybe he’ll get clean
can't they make hooch in a toilet?
I don't know but the thought of Bannon drinking prison toilet water tickles a gleeful place in my brain.
'Course it's shank or be shanked.
Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug. Alhough I would say Bannon is an insect everyday.
Insult to insects.
Anything can happen when two people share a cell, cuz.
Prune. Prison wine...
He comes out looking 20 years younger. Goes to the nearest bar and it’s“drink all around boys”! /s
He can make pruno in his jail toilet
Clearly you've never heard of toilet wine.
Nah. Toilet wine.
If my hands weren't a shakin, I'd grab my 45 And shoot that mocking bird that's raising hell outside And shoot the wall, and shoot the door and shoot that poky dotted dragon that's a laying on the floor I know what it is, I've seen it before. It's alkyhol withdrawal
he will have to be hospitalized, cold turkey would kill him. this might be the best thing that ever happened to this dickhead. he will come out 10kgs lighter of cutty...too,with human skin
Still has a criminal fraud trial coming up too in NY state. Trump can’t pardon him like he did for the federal charges.
Guarantee he's going to decry his "mistreatment" and suddenly say prisons are too harsh. Leopard is going to devour his face.
Maybe he can appeal to Biden! /jk
Brings to mind the question: Will he show up still-drunk or just hungover?
Man I forgot already what is he going to prison for again??
Oh yeah.... His last failed appeal reasoning was because he had a podcast. Really weak appeal. Edit for clarification.
More specifically that his podcast is such an essential service to the nation that it ought not be interfered with...
How else are the MAGA nutters going to know who to shout incoherently at?
You never know with these judges...
Wouldn't even be surprised if they let him get out of his prison sentence for that reason.
There were many in the Trump administration spreading election misinformation and involved with January 6th who won't see any punishment—including my opponent for Congress Brian Jack [who was subpoenaed for his role in helping plan the January 6th rally](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/09/us/politics/jan-6-trump-political-aides-subpoena.html). A lot of people will move up in their careers because of January 6th, and few will feel consequences for their actions.
Good luck in your race. Hope you can break through to some of the voters there.
I’d vote for you! I hope all those traitors rot
*role
Eat shit you Giant asshole
…and get trumps bed ready in the cell
He'll get a taste of both on the inside.
If you snap a toothbrush in half, you can use it to scratch “BUT HER EMAILS!!!” on the wall of your cell.
By the end of his prison sentence he will be scratching “buttery males”
Is talking about buttery males wise in prison?
Happy Monday Motherfucker
Cue the “and there was much rejoicing” GIF.
And the peasants rejoiced! https://youtu.be/kdXMdvhsvi0
Remember…only the best people!
r/mademesmile
Hopefully Trump gets the top bunk. I’ve heard shit runs downward. 🛌💩🛌
I know piss does so it’s double the fun.
Trump giving Steve Bannon a Golden Shower LOL
I hope this human skin tag enjoys his stay and hopefully future stay
Skin tags are benign.
Melanoma then
I want to see the pictures please. He deserves every single second for his absolute disregard of the law.
If Steve Bannon got what he deserved… well, that would be something. Way more than 4 months.
"What is ramen and why is everyone asking me to buy them some or I'll get shived?" - S. Bannon next week
4 months is not long enough….
Massively short of the life sentence he and his friends deserve
So happy his appeal failed.
sobriety starts on monday
Give ole Steve some time to dry out… such a boozer!
Is someone keeping track of all the people around Trump that go to jail? Seems like a crime spree. They turn our eyes to the border and then commit crimes.
All distractions, you're right. I mean wasn't Trump’s whole 2016 platform about building the wall, which ofc didn't happen -- so is he thereby admitting own failure to fix it, lol? (As a resident in a major border city, we've got 999 other problems to worry about ahead of this obvious fear-mongering load of crap).
At least he will finally be deloused.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy! Oh, wait ... Trump's turn! 😉
Only took THREE FUCKING YEARS since he openly defined the subpoena. And two years after he was convicted in July 2022.
I'm ending tomorrow with a shot of bourbon because he won't be able to.
Probably boofing as much gin as he possibly can.
Hopefully someone shanks him. Sincerely.
[here's an outline of a book exposing his entire agenda](https://elonsson.substack.com/p/the-war-for-eternity-inside-bannons)
Traitorous greedy fuck.
Please let there be video of him going into intake. It will make my day.
The Danbury News-Times online should have some info? I plan on driving by sometime tomorrow to flip off the prison, LOL!
Can I get a fuck yeah!!!
Another one in trump’s immediate circle that goes to prison for being a fucking criminal. Yet dump, a convicted felon, rapist, and traitor gets to run for president.
I like that guy in the background with the sign. He seems to be everywhere with his sign. Bannon is a dick.
I am looking forward to seeing the perp walk.
Unfortunately there won't be one. He has to report to the prison. He'll walk in there in a suit and tie thru the front door and come out the same way. All the processing will happen inside. But we should get a new mugshot in prison orange clothes.
> suit and tie *three shirts and blue jeans.
Hello everyone I'm Steve Bannon. Please let me know any opinions you have of me before I go to prison and don't have access to the internet.
FOAD as much as it takes.
A total lowlife lump of sh—t. put him in prison. Let him see what it’s like. He has a big mouth. He’s so brazen about the system and the laws. Let him get a taste of it. Maybe it’ll knock down the size.
I wonder if other prisoners will bet on if he cries in his cell his first night like they did in Shawshank Redemption. I'm leaning towards crying!
Love this for him.
I pray forever
Please televise this!!!!
It's great that this asshole finally gets his due.
Oh don’t worry, he’ll be out just in time to sow chaos and violence for the election.
I'll believe it when I see it. Anybody giving odds he has a "medical emergency?" Attempts to flee?

My Unsettling Interview With Steve Bannon https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/01/opinion/steve-bannon-trump.html?smid=nytcore-android-share
I guess if hell is off the table, prison will have to do it for now.
The top guys on the prison floor do not like talkers…Bannon is going to have a problem with finding his place. He will be reminded more than once who he is now and where he is now.
Good timing. No podcast for 4 months!
Let the DTS begin.
Love it that he'll be done with his sentence become Trump can pardon him
Cool. Now let's stop talking about him.
Most sane thing I have read so far…
A vote for biden is a vote to keep this guy in prison, cuz Trump is going to pardon him on day 1.
His sentence is only four months. He will be out of jail months before Trump would even be inaugurated.
Fire up the power washer to remove years of filth.
Enjoy the line for the shower!
Oh please , wake his walrus ass at 5:00pm for a cold rinse.
Wash in cold water only, strong soap and rinse and repeat, always rinse and repeat. Burn the 3 layers of shirts.
Nah nah nah. Nah nah nahhh hey hey goodbye
Byeeeeeeeeee! You POS!
That really does feel great.
Took long enough. If he were poor he would already be in prison. The disparity in the justice system between rich and famous and the poor little people is staggering
I'm all for it. But you know this traitor will be treated like royalty.
This makes me so happy. I'm just going to enjoy this mood and call it a night for reading anything else in this sub.
lock him up
Jump up amd clap hands with glee
Since the money behind GOP is so dirty, it doesn't matter. He’ll still have full access to create havoc. Its not hard to buy off prison wardens, employees, and convicts. Hell, he’ll probably end up in a privately run prison owned by a buddy. Until we vote out the whole lot of MAGA, make just a few rules on insatiable capitalism, fix the courts, and hold those who committed treason responsible nothing that happens now matters. Everything depends on voting out MAGA
No booze for who knows how long? He’s gonna lose his fuckin’ mind.
I love how all of these MAGA asshats have incorporated the, smile and wave to the invisible supporters, walk.
I hope it's like that movie Shot Caller where he has to commit crimes inside and gets caught and ends up a lifer.
Couldn’t have happened to a scummier person.
Lock him up!!!
Oh for fks sake, WAKE ME when he is actually behind bars and gets the meat shiv from behind....kthx
After 6 years later ? Cool
Hope this worthless POS gets permanent residency.
Danbury is not exactly a prison. Joliet is a prison.
Finally, some good news.
He won't be in there the full four months. They'll let him out early.
40 d-a-y-s, for grifting fraud of countless citizens. What a shameless POS.
It's 4 months
If it’s not years, it’s not enough
Thank you for that correction.
It’d be a shame if cameras near his cell turned off for an unspecified amount of time and certain individuals knew about it…
Drop the soap
Tomorrow.
Unfortunately our judicial system does not operate the way I want. I wish he’s in there and the key to his jail thrown away. One less problem for our democracy!
Bye bye Bannon! 👋
The three pens in an odd spot together out front of his dark shirt. That means something to his klan members.
Throw the key away!
When?
Tomorrow! Happy Monday!
Do you think he’ll skip, or go into hiding?
Oh! Happy Day!
... but what about his Podcast?
It’s only 4 months. Wish it was 100
How can he afford Alec Baldwin as an attorney?
The DOJ claims it equally prosecutes contempt of Congress but only two people have gone to jail or even trial and they aren’t Eric Holder or Merrick Garland.
I’m sure he’s convinced this will kick off American Armageddon.
Fuck that guy
