For those tracking Steve Bannon’s situation, you see the official story is now that there is simply not enough time to release him to home confinement.
They think that you’re stupid. And that you’ll buy that the Bureau of Prisons can’t make demands of its subordinates or its contractors (unclear which in the CNN story). But whether they are contractors or sub-units of the BOP, they can certainly be made to carry out orders. Don’t be fooled.
There is just no will in the Harris-Biden Administration to do so. They want Bannon to serve *every last second* of his sentence in the jail.
