WASHINGTON — The last time Steve Bannon was a free man, Joe Biden was the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. Randilee Giamusso, a Bureau of Prisons spokesperson, confirmed that Bannon was released. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols — himself a Trump appointee — ordered Bannon in June to report to prison by July 1. Just days after Bannon reported to prison, Biden announced his decision to drop out of the race, and Harris became the Democratic nominee. Peter Navarro, a former White House official, was also convicted of contempt of Congress and served a four-month sentence, as well.
