It’ll be nice if this is the first of many.
If you believe either party has a monopoly on corruption you’re delusional.

If you rep that 100% of donated funds go to building a wall, but you siphon off a portion to your personal account...what is that called? Is it legal?
I don’t know what the fine print was. But the language is usually proceeds which would allow for expenses.

You should read the indictment.

Also to add.
Did no one notice bannons involvement went through his long standing non profit?
But they don’t claim the non profit violated tax laws?
So if the money went to his non profit and the non profit is in good standing, how can you claim bannon took a profit?

Ok. But if even a few of those facts are true, Brannon is going to jail.

It’s an image scan in SDNY, so I can’t post text.
Basically someone does an online campaign to raise private money to pay for the wall. It succeeds beyond all expectations, Raising 20 mil.
The funding platform says it can’t release that kind of jack to the individual who started it. He needs a nonprofit, and, worse, all the donors have to “opt in” individually to transfer the money to the nonprofit. Basically they have to reraise the money.
Enter Bannon. Repeated assurances that no salaries will be paid, and that “100%” of all money raised go directly to construction. They reraise the entire 20 mil plus five more.
The guy running it decides he wants a salary, despite saying he wouldn’t take one. So Bannon has them donate the salary to another nonprofit he controls, which pays the salary. Money laundered.
The guy uses the money that Bannon channeled to him from the nonprofit (which had promised no salaries and 100% spent on construction) on cosmetic surgery, a boat, his personal taxes, stuff like that.
Brannon’s nonprofit ends up sucking about one million out, about 650 of which goes to his personal expenses unrelated the the build the wall effort for which it was promised. He will have a hard time explaining that away as travel expenses.
I don’t prejudge the man. He gets his day in court. All I’m saying is that it’s a strong indictment for fraud and money laundering.

I believe you’re conflating bannon with kolfsge because the entire point is to wrap bannon up with kolfsge to hurt the president. Because the sdny is trash.
100% of the funds raised . . . will be used in the execution of our mission and purpose” because, as BANNON publicly stated, “we’re a volunteer organization.”
That’s the strongest statement they have from bannon. The money went to his national sovereignty non profit. Seems right in line with their mission and purpose.

Nope. Read the indictment.
Bannon’s problem isn’t fraud. It’s money laundering in aid of Kolfage’s fraud.
Bannon knew that Kolfage had made representations in reraising the money (no salary).
Bannon then used his nonprofit to funnel that money as a salary.
That’s trouble right there.

Looks like the boys got a little haughty.

There's more to this story.
Keep an eye on the Chinese dude Bannon was hooked up with.
