In a stunning revelation, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has admitted to illegally detaining former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, in violation of the First Step Act (FSA) of 2018.
Bannon, who was due to be released early under the provisions of this law, remains behind bars due to bureaucratic delays that his legal team attributes to political maneuvering by the Biden-Harris administration.
The First Step Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump, was designed to reduce prison sentences for certain offenders and encourage rehabilitation. It specifically provides mechanisms for nonviolent offenders to earn time credits through participation in prison programs, allowing for earlier release to home confinement or community-based facilities. Bannon, who has been incarcerated since mid-2024, was expected to be released on October 19, but remains in federal custody—raising serious concerns about governmental overreach.
The First Step Act (FSA) was passed in 2018 to reform federal sentencing laws, reducing mandatory minimums for nonviolent offenses and enabling prisoners to accrue time credits for good behavior and participation in rehabilitation programs. These credits allow eligible inmates to transition from prison to home confinement or halfway houses earlier than their originally scheduled release.

The more quickly that we can rid the country of these Fascists posing as Democrats - not just from positions of power, the better for the county.
