Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon is currently serving a four-month prison sentence for failing to comply with a congressional subpoena related to the attacks on the US Capitol in 2021. Bannon reported to the Danbury Federal Correctional Institution in Connecticut on July 1, 2024 [38e6341e].
Despite being in prison, Bannon has arranged for guest hosts to continue producing content for his podcast, 'War Room'. These guest hosts include Noor bin Laden, the niece of Osama bin Laden, and Andrew Giuliani, the son of Rudy Giuliani. Bannon livestreamed his ride to prison on his podcast and gave a speech declaring himself a 'political prisoner'. He remains a staunch loyalist to former President Donald Trump and has claimed that he will have a 'much bigger impact' on Trump's campaign while in prison.
Bannon is currently housed in the Danbury Federal Correctional Institution, a low-security facility in Connecticut. The prison does not have internet access, and inmates are not allowed to operate a business while imprisoned [38e6341e].
