In a recent statement, former Donald Trump aide Steve Bannon criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, suggesting that she played a role in prolonging his prison sentence beyond his earliest possible release date. Bannon, who is currently serving a four-month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena, accused Harris of being the 'Queen of Mass Incarceration' and implied that her actions may impact her future political aspirations.
Bannon's statement, obtained through his daughter Maureen Bannon, a former US Army captain, highlighted his frustration with the Biden administration and the Federal Bureau of Prisons for allegedly failing to implement the First Step Act effectively. The First Step Act, passed during the Trump administration, allows for early release of federal prisoners who are deemed non-threatening to public safety.
