“There’s a lot of lessons there for the MAGA movement,” Bannon said on his show about his time in prison.

Hours after leaving federal prison in Connecticut, Steve Bannon returned to hosting his podcast with his usual fire and fury about forcefully seizing a Republican victory in next week’s election.

“The four months in federal prison not only didn’t break me, it empowered me. I am more energized and more focused than I’ve ever been in my entire life,” he said, calling for right-wing Americans to prepare for a vicious fight well beyond Election Day to ensure Donald Trump returns to power.

Notably, Bannon was also surrounded by top MAGA figures, fulfilling his promise to immediately play a role in attempting to return Trump to the White House.
