The co-founder of a fundraising group linked to Steve Bannon that promised to help Donald Trump construct a wall along the southern U.S. border was sentenced to four years and three months in prison on Wednesday for stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from donors.

Brian Kolfage, a decorated Air Force veteran who lost both of his legs and an arm in the Iraq War, previously pleaded guilty for his role in siphoning donations from the We Build the Wall campaign.

A co-defendant, financier Andrew Badolato, was also sentenced to three years for aiding the effort. He had also pleaded guilty. A third man involved in siphoning funds from the wall project, Colorado businessman Tim Shea, won’t be sentenced until June.

Kolfage and Badolato were also ordered to pay $25 million in restitution to the victims. …

Disgusting.

[KittyKares]

I believed in Kolfage and am very disappointed in him. And Bannon? What?

[Taxman]

Did they REALLY divert $$$$ to their own use, or is this yet another dirty hit job by the LIEberal SCUM?

[JayGalt]

Exactly. This smells like a hit job.

[Olog-hai]

Apparently Kolfage was to plead guilty according to other sources who reported this on the eighth of this month.

Anyone ever seen Kofalge’s blonde wife? She’s smoking hot!

We will know when some big guns from the left start going to jail.

We will know the justice system is fair when some big guns from the left start going to jail.

[Glad2bnuts]

HIT JOB, clearing the decks for the coming climate lockdown, that will mirror the book 1984 by the time it is completed.

[DiogenesLamp]

Disgusting.

Yes, it is very disgusting that the corrupt Federal Justice system can prosecute political enemies and imprison them for bullsh*t made up charges.

But this is where we are now. We are on the edge of Nazism.

[DiogenesLamp]

Apparently Kolfage was to plead guilty according to other sources who reported this on the eighth of this month.

The way a Federal prosecutor works is they can threaten to keep you in prison forever if you don't plead guilty. It is my understanding they "win" most of their cases by forcing the defendant to plead guilty.

They use extortion and any threat they can think of to push people into pleading guilty.

[Olog-hai]

The Bill of Rights means nothing to those “prosecutors”, of course.

[Taxman]

Beginning after President Trump becomes POTUS 47 in January, 2025!

[Taxman]

Perhaps we can head that Dystopian World off?

We can, but it will not be an easy chore!

When we WIN, though, it will be a SWEEEEEEEEET VICTORY!

[Taxman]

He “got an offer he could not refuse?”

I refuse to believe Kolfage is anything but the victim of an EVIL prosecution!

[Olog-hai]

Once Biden usurped, the political imprisonments that started under Obama resumed.

[ConservativeInPA]

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg brought new, state charges against Bannon last year. He is awaiting trial. Presidential pardons apply only to federal crimes, not state offenses. Bannon has called the case “nonsense.”

You can be assured that the case is complete bull chit.

[Taxman]

THERE WILL BE A RECKONING!
