“(ORDER LIST: 603 U.S.) FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 2024 ORDER IN PENDING CASE 23A1129
BANNON, STEPHEN K. V. UNITED STATES
The application for release pending appeal presented to The Chief Justice and by him referred to the Court is denied.”
The man with the sickly green complexion and jaundiced eyes, Steve Bannon, will have one more evening to scare the daylights out of us from his podcast, The War Room before his incarceration at BOP’s Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut.
I, for one, look forward to being able to relax for a while, he scares me so. With him in the hoosegow, I’ll not have to continue to hide in the basement (yes, of my Mother’s house) quivering, for four months anyway, that’s the length of his prison sentence for his contempt of Congress conviction, to begin tomorrow afternoon.
A Purple Heart Kind of Guy
He’s a brave man, one who advises his MAGA soldiers to offer up their lives for good MAGA causes, like liquidating Democrats. He had this to say two weeks ago at Turning Point USA’s People’s Convention, a gathering of recruits for General Bannon’s army which he will of course lead from the front should Donald Trump lose the election:
Between now and Election Day they’re going to try to take out so many people and that’s where it’s next man up, its next woman up. Are you prepared to fight? Are you prepared to give it all? Are you prepared to leave it all on the battlefield?
I can’t hear you and they can’t hear you.
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s very simple, victory or death.
Bannon oozes bravery. For example, he was brave enough to file multiple court attempts to avoid having to show up for prison tomorrow. Previous acts of bravery include his beseeching Trump for a pardon for his “Build the Wall” scam, for which his cohorts are presently serving long prison terms while he avoided federal prosecution altogether. New York state, however, has indicted Bannon for virtually the same fraud, money laundering and conspiracy crimes; the gift of Trump’s pardon does not apply to state prosecutions. See the NY AG’s indictment. His trial is in the offing, which, by the way, he characteristically commented on at a 2023 court appearance with “Let’s roll!” The courage of the man . . .
Brave as he is, though, according to the Daily Beast, “[H]e is dreading his soon-to-be-reality of being housed alongside sex offenders and violent criminals when he reports to prison in Connecticut on Monday, a source close to him told The Daily Beast on Friday. . . The source said that’s something Bannon is ‘quite concerned with.'” Surely, this anonymous source is mistaken. Major General Bannon,
being a brave man, will easily fend off any amorous entreaties by fellow inmates simply by the force of his reputation as a man who has survived many lawsuits and other white collar crime wartime experiences.
