Trump ally Steve Bannon surrendered to officials at a federal prison in Danbury, Conn., on Monday for his contempt of Congress conviction, saying he was “proud” to do so as a “martyr” for the MAGA movement.

Bannon, 70, held a press conference with far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), 2024 Minnesota Republican Senate candidate Royce White and fans of his “War Room” podcast a little before reporting to FCI Danbury at noon.

“I am proud to go to prison,” he told his supporters. “If this is what it takes to stand up to tyranny; if this is what it takes to stand up to the [Attorney General Merrick] Garland corrupt criminal DOJ; if this is what it takes to stand up to [House Speaker emerita] Nancy Pelosi; if this is what it takes to stand up to Joe Biden — I’m proud to do it.”

A Catholic priest at a nearby retreat house in Connecticut made a cameo following his remarks and vowed to pray for Bannon
