Former White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon and three others were arrested and charged with defrauding hundreds of thousands of donors who contributed to a fundraising campaign for a private border wall, the U.S. attorney's office for the Southern District of New York said Thursday.
Bannon, Brian Kolfage, Andrew Badolato and Timothy Shea allegedly defrauded donors of the online crowdfunding campaign known as We Build the Wall, which raised more than $25 million. The four defendants are expected to appear in court Thursday afternoon.
"As alleged, the defendants defrauded hundreds of thousands of donors, capitalizing on their interest in funding a border wall to raise millions of dollars, under the false pretense that all of that money would be spent on construction," acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss said. -snip
I knew Rob or Pooty would eventually post this story which is why I didn't bother with it.
I've never really liked Bannon since he made that statement he made about praising Satan a few years ago. I knew then that he was not a trustworthy individual.
With that said, he is entitled to a fair trial and a presumption of innocence until proven guilty.

I swear if you put a cowboy hat on him he looks like an evil oil tycoon.

Not surprisingly you have tried to turn this into being about Trump instead of Bannon, himself. You're becoming so boring and predictable, Robbie.
