Trump was almost certainly aware DOJ was targeting these guys. So it makes sense he was trying to distance himself from these charges.

SO glad I never gave a penny to this organization. I admit I was tempted when I first heard about it.

Stupid yes. We are not talking about a sophisticated guy like Bannon. Brian only graduated from college in 2014. He fought for his country, but was a low level airman.

Exactly.

Nobody should be happy that Bannon and Kolfage were spending money raised for the wall on themselves, but this type of fundraising and personal spending is done by “our” political elites every. single. day.

And the DoJ doesn’t care. In fact, check out yourself what kind of fund raising and foundations the last several Attorney Generals of the United States have had that personally fed them.

Equal justice under the law is what we want—two systems of justice is what we get.

There likely will be some restitution. Havent looked to see if there is money left.

I would definitely try to stop your donation.

Ah, I’m leaving this thread alone. It’s too politically explosive and Im too tired to argue :)

I would say I agree that it is inexcusable.

But like I said, i’m in no mood to argue with others tonight.

maybe another night lol

The problem is because of the way it was set up and what was promised.

I suspect he got talked into it by more sophistcated scammers like the mob affiliated guy.

One of them was connected to the Gambino family in some way.

No it isn’t.

This isnt about Gofundme’s fee. That is taken off the top.

They concocted an elaborate scheme to hide things.

What suprises me a little is Bannon. He should have known relying on this guy as his dupe was going to end badly

How many movies have you see where they say..dont go flashing the money around ..after a crime.

This was probably relatively easy for the Feds to untangle

I will keep an open mind on this, but if they did commit fraud then let justice be done.

However, ALL OF US should demand the same accountability of all such groups regardless of politics. Period.

Why do some get prosecuted (these guys) and some don’t (the Clinton Foundation or Biden’s).

The double standard must end.

I make a monthly donation.

I’m still waiting for evidence before I turn it off.

I hope this is nothing more than another Leftist witch hunt.
