I gave money to the original fund. Withholding judgement for now. The timing is suspect.

They spent 3 years attacking the President over complete bs, and so far have gotten away with it. They will have no qualms about trying to frame anyone for anything.

From FecesPedia:

We Build the Wall is an organization raising donations to build private sections of the wall along the Mexico–U.S. border. It started as a GoFundMe campaign by United States Air Force veteran Brian Kolfage in December 2018.

However, Kolfage later announced the formation of a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization in January 2019.

Its advisory board includes politicians and activists with a hard-line stance on illegal immigration, including former Senate candidate Kris Kobach, ex-Congressman Tom Tancredo, and former Trump advisor Steve Bannon, who is chairman of the board.

On December 3, 2019, a Hidalgo County judge ordered the group to temporarily halt all construction due to its plans to build adjacent to the Rio Grande, which a lawyer for the National Butterfly Center argued would create a flooding risk.

On January 9, 2020, a federal judge lifted the injunction, allowing construction to resume.

On August 20, 2020, the Acting U.S. Attorney [an anonymous unnamed individual in this "report"] for the Southern District of New York unsealed an indictment charging Brian Kolfage, Steve Bannon, Andrew Badolato and Timothy Shea with a scheme to defraud hundreds of thousands of donors. The men face charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Each charge is a felony with up to 20 years in prison.

One would think that the rotting piles of lying dogsqueezins at SDNY would have figured out that there was "fraud" going on here before the end of the tenth week before the November election.

Guess they haven't managed to pry loose the Access Hollywood tapes yet...
