The Biden-Harris regime launched a lawfare campaign to imprison not just former President Donald Trump but also other political opponents who are allied with him, such as former adviser turned popular podcaster Steve Bannon, who was prosecuted and sentenced after Democrats declared him to be in contempt of Congress.

Early Tuesday morning, Bannon was released after serving four months in federal prison just one week before Election Day, and he wasted no time in using his regained freedom to go on the attack against those who are arrayed against his former boss Trump, ABC News reported.

Within hours of his release, Bannon was back broadcasting an episode of his "War Room" podcast, which he planned to follow with a national press conference in New York City on Tuesday afternoon.

Released after serving prison sentence

According to anonymous sources, ABC News revealed that Bannon was released from a federal prison in Connecticut around 3 am after serving a four-month sentence and paying a $6,500 fine.

That punishment came as a result of Bannon being charged with two counts of criminal contempt of Congress, stemming from his defiance of subpoenas issued by the highly partisan and now-defunct House Jan. 6 Select Committee, which sought to link Bannon to the unrest at the U.S. Capitol in 2021.

In an overt display of partisanship, the Biden-Harris Justice Department fully prosecuted the contempt charges against Bannon and he was sentenced to prison two years ago in 2022 by a federal judge, though that sentence was postponed while he appealed the ruling.

However, after a federal appellate panel upheld the sentence in May, and after the U.S. Supreme Court declined an emergency request to intervene, according to the Associated Press, Bannon was ordered to serve his time beginning on July 1, even though the appeals process had not been completely exhausted.

Bannon intends to continue pursuing his appeal of what he claims is a wrongful conviction of his rightful defiance of an invalid congressional subpoena that ignored his lawful invocation of executive privilege to avoid being compelled to discuss his private conversations with the former president.

Bannon "empowered" and not broken by prison sentence

Upon his release from prison on Tuesday, Bannon almost immediately returned to his podcast and asserted that the apparent effort to diminish and silence his influential and powerful voice in the final months before the critical presidential election had backfired and only resulted in making him and his show "more powerful" and consequential.

"The four months in federal prison not only didn't break me, it empowered me," Bannon said. "I am more energized and more focused than I've ever been in my entire life, and I can see clearly -- just like in 2016 and in 2020 -- exactly what is going on here and what we have to do to defeat it."

Bannon "proud" and has "no regrets" about his defiant actions

The AP reported that when Bannon was ordered to report to prison earlier this year, he said that he was "proud" to have been turned into a "political prisoner" by the "corrupt" Biden-Harris DOJ and Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Shortly before his prison sentence began in July, Bannon told ABC News that he had "no regrets" about his defiance of the Democrat-controlled House Jan. 6 Committee's subpoenas and said in an interview at that time, "If it took me going to prison to finally get the House to start to move, to start to delegitimize the illegitimate J6 committee, then, hey, guess what, my going to prison is worth it."

As for what Bannon did with his time behind bars, his prison consultant Sam Mangel told ABC News that he taught other inmates about U.S. history and the government, that he "held his head up high" and earned the respect of his fellow prisoners, and added, "I'm sure he's quite glad to put it behind him and move on with his life. From what I'm told, he feels he's got a lot left to accomplish now."
