Former President Donald Trump gained back a close ally on Tuesday after War Room podcast host Steve Bannon was released from a Connecticut prison following a four-month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena.

“This show has never been more powerful. The voices behind it have never been more powerful. The audience has never been more powerful,” the former White House adviser said live from New York following his release from prison on Tuesday morning, speaking to an audience of more than 150,000 live viewers, according to metrics on X and Rumble.
