Steve Bannon’s Spiritual Exile

On July 1, former Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon reported to the Danbury Federal Correctional Institution to begin a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress. In an interview a  few weeks earlier, Tucker Carlson had asked him: “What do you plan to do with that time?” Bannon replied that he would view the time as “serving his country,” and added that he had a regimen to keep himself mentally fit: “I do a lot of spiritual exercises, Saint Ignatius of Loyola, different spiritual exercises that come out of the Catholic Church.”
