Accused fraudster and former White House strategist Steve Bannon was aboard a $28 million yacht owned by a Chinese billionaire when he was arrested on fraud charges Thursday morning, according to reports.

The 150-foot mega vessel was in the Long Island Sound near Westbrook, Connecticut, when President Trump’s former strategist was picked up by US Postal Service inspectors, the Hartford Courant reported.

The boat, the Lady May, is owned by Guo Wengui, one of China’s most wanted fugitives, who is wanted in Beijing on fraud, blackmail and bribery charges

The president could care less about Bannon. He fired him remember?

Bannon has always had a reputation for being slick.

The indictment of Bannon is damning. Read it.

It is. Nobody ever accused Bannon of being a saint.

The problem is that because Democrats can get away with being crooked, people on our side think they'll get away with it too.

So, yes, Bannon will probably go to prison. Barr will talk about the law being applied equally. The Clintons will continue living comfortably in wealth and freedom.

You’re an idiot.

I don’t stand up for criminals. You obviously do.

I don’t stand up for criminals that create schemes to cheat hard working folk of their money then siphon the money into their personal bank accounts.

And I would remind you that Bannon has always been thought to have a sketchy jacket so you can quit the spin that he is a classy guy at the altar.

You are correct that clintons both belong in prison. What they did is 1000x worse than the fraud Bannon pulled off.

If the charges are true it’s not really “supporting our guys.” If he told people the funds were to build a wall and then took $1 million for himself that’s a crime.

You’re standing up for the criminal DEMONRAT Party by attacking our guys. This is OBVIOUSLY a politically-motivated indictment, but you can’t see that. Citiot.

And of course, you believe the Demonrat spin, as if it’s the gospel truth. This is how the Demonrats ALWAYS win. Their people ALWAYS stand for their people. Ours cut and run at the first allegation.

I don’t judge everyone by Donald Trump’s opinion of them. I knew who Steve Bannon was and read and watched his stuff long before Trump ever descended that escalator.

Whether it’s politically motivated or not fraud is a crime and bannons going to prison.

You can excuse crimes, I cannot.

You’re a Deep State enabler then. May the Most High judge you, ever so severely, for your part in what is coming.

I despise phones and phone calls almost as much as printers.

Goes double for wi-fi printers.

If true. That’s the question. He was busted in New York. I’m going to keep my powder dry on this one.

A decent 80s movie.

Dr. Who could have had some fun with the idea.

I remember the morning Christine Blasey Ford "testified" and at the lunch break, all you could hear was how compelling she was and Kavanaugh was doomed.

Then Kavanaugh spoke an that was the end of Ford.

Let's wait for the other side before we hang someone.
