Washington (AFP) - Steve Bannon -- the anti-establishment outsider who helped bring Donald Trump to the White House -- found Friday that his years-long loyalty to the former president may well land him in jail. Bannon was sentenced by the federal court in Washington to four months in prison for refusing to testify to the Congressional committee probing the January 6, 2021 attack by Trump supporters on the US Capitol. That probe has Trump and his advisors, including Bannon himself, in its sights, for allegedly planning or taking part in an illegal effort to prevent Joe Biden from becoming presi...

The Justice Department said in a sentencing recommendation that the 68-year-old Bannon should receive the six-month sentence and pay a fine of $200,000 because he repeatedly...
