(Associated Press) – Longtime Donald Trump ally Steve Bannon has been released from prison after serving a four-month sentence for defying a subpoena in the congressional investigation into the U.S. Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021.
Bannon left the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut, on Tuesday morning.
He later resumed his podcast, saying he was focused on helping Trump win back the presidency.
A jury convicted Bannon in 2022 of refusing to sit for a deposition with the Jan. 6 House Committee and refusing to provide documents related to his involvement in Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 loss to President Joe Biden.
