NOT BANNON EVER!!!!

“A six-count indictment charges Bannon with money laundering, conspiracy and scheming to defraud for his alleged role in We Build the Wall, a group that raised at least $15 million to construct a barrier along the border with Mexico but skimmed the donations.”

What exactly did Bannon do?

“He was accused of cheating donors to a fundraiser designed to help Mr Trump achieve his policy goal of building a wall on the US-Mexico border. Prosecutors in New York alleged that he had lied to donors to the “We Build the Wall” project and diverted some of the money to two of his associates.”

“Despite being pardoned, Bannon still faces New York state money laundering and conspiracy charges over the wall under an indictment from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Bannon, 69, has pleaded not guilty.Apr 26, 2023”

My husband and I gave $100 to the “We Build The Wall” project.

For a $100 you were to have a brick inscribed with your names on it. I have NO WAY OF KNOWING if that ever happened.

I like Bannon. I don’t pay much attention when New York (especially Alvin Bragg) go after the likes of Bannon. I take what is printed about him, as with everyone close to Trump, with a grain of salt.

He’s done more than almost anyone to get people in the fight. For that, I give him lots of credit.
