Former White House chief strategist and ally of former President Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, has lost his appeal of a conviction for defying a congressional subpoena related to the January 6th Capitol riot investigation.
Bannon was found guilty of contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena issued by the House committee investigating the events surrounding the Capitol riot. He had been charged with two counts of contempt, with each count carrying a maximum penalty of one year in prison.
