FLORENCE, COLORADO (The Borowitz Report)Amid news that Steve Bannon could soon be jailed for criminal contempt, the convicted drug lord Joaquín (El Chapo) Guzmán said that under no circumstances would he agree to share a prison cell with the former Trump adviser.
The ex-kingpin said that, although he had not heard of any plans to house Bannon in his prison cell, he was speaking out of an abundance of caution.
If the Department of Justice is looking for a place to lock Bannon up, dont even think about putting him in with me, El Chapo, who is being held at ADX Florence, a maximum-security penitentiary, said. Its not going to happen.
Ive tunnelled out of prison before, and I can do it again, he warned.
El Chapos sentiments have been echoed by the nations prison population, two million of whom have signed a petition refusing to share their cells with Bannon.
Speaking at the D.O.J., the Attorney General, Merrick Garland, commented on El Chapos recoiling at the prospect of sharing a small space with Bannon. I cant say I blame him, Garland said.

(16,352 posts)Like he's never seen a bar of soap, a toothbrush, a razor, or a comb. He's disgusting.
My new nickname for him is Pigpen, because he's like an adult (if you can call him an adult, which I know is a stretch) version of that kid in Peanuts who walks around in a self made cloud of dirt.
If he ever does go to prison, they'll cut his hair and make him shower once in a while. That would be quite an improvement.

Even sadistic drug kingpins have some scruples. Bunking with Bannon is cruel and unusual punishment no one should have to endure. At least El Chapo can draw the line somewhere. Bannon and Trump can't.
