Steve Bannon, a former adviser to Donald Trump, will be released from prison on Tuesday.

The timing puts him back in front of the media exactly one week before Election Day – and he’s already called his first press conference, which will take place just hours after his scheduled release.

On Tuesday, Bannon will have served his four-month prison term, which came with a $6,500 fine.

He was sentenced on two counts of contempt of Congress for failing to comply with a subpoena related to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol.

      You. Is he bad at what he did? Because it seems like it went well for him all things considered. Which is sad. Dude should be in jail for much longer.
