One week before the election
Ex-Trump adviser Steve Bannon released from prison
One week before the US presidential election, Donald Trump's former chief strategist has been released from prison. Now the ultra-right publicist Steve Bannon wants to intensify his "fight" for the Republicans again.
Bannon had been sentenced to four months in prison for ignoring a subpoena from the committee investigating the attack on the Capitol on 6 January 2021 and failing to provide requested documents. The 70-year-old presented the accusations against him as politically motivated. However, "the four months in prison could not break me. They made me stronger", Bannon emphasized after his release.
Wants to mobilize the Trump base
During his prison sentence, Trump's former campaign manager and host of the podcast "War Room" had made it clear that he wanted to continue to influence the elections and mobilize the Trump base. He did not waste much time after his release, hosting his show just a few hours later.
Despite being in prison, he is said to have remained in contact with a small circle of loyal followers to discuss current news and political issues.
