Junior is scared . . . . . trying to distance himself. ‘Stupid’ Donald Trump Jr. mocked after trying to distance himself from Bannon’s scheme In the wake of reports announcing the arrest of Steve Bannon over his connection to the “We Build the Wall” crowdfunding campaign that allegedly misappropriated the funds they raised, focus is circling back to Donald Trump Jr., who enthusiastically endorsed the campaign in the summer of 2019. “This is what capitalism is all about. This is private enterprise at its finest. Doing it better, faster, cheaper than anything else. What you guys are doing is amazing,” Trump Jr. said at the time. Now that news that the campaign was allegedly a scam has broke, Trump Jr. released a statement distancing himself from the campaign, saying that although he gave a speech at one of their events, he “has no involvement with their organization,” adding that his “previous praise of the group” was simply because he believed in their “supposed intention” to help build a wall on the southern border.
I see the court mandated anti frauding training didn't take after the Trump foundation imploded. What can you expect after robbing cancer kids?
Fox News Lawyer says . . . . . . . . ‘It doesn’t look good for him’: Fox News analyst explains why Steve Bannon is ‘facing 20 years’ in jail Fox News judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano said on Thursday that former Trump campaign adviser Steve Bannon could spend up to 20 years in jail if the government’s case against him holds up. Following Bannon’s arrest, Napolitano spoke about the allegations that Bannon defrauded donors through a charity that raised $25 million to build a border wall. “This entity — We Build the Wall — promised its donors that not a penny — quote — not a penny would go into their pockets,” Napolitano explained. “So rather than putting the money directly into their pockets, they funneled it to third-party charities and those charities paid the money, according to the indictment, to Steve Bannon and to the others.” The United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York announced Thursday that Bannon and other members of the “We Build the Wall” crowdfunding campaign were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering. “They are facing 20 years each,” he continued, “for the money that they paid themselves in defiance of their promise not to do so.” Napolitano predicted that Bannon will defend himself by claiming he deserved to get paid because other charities pay their officials. “Their use of the third-party charities to actually pay them — so as to hide the payments from the donors and presumably from the government — is an effort to cover your trail,” the analyst noted. “Because they knew they had misled the donors.” “It doesn’t look good for him right now,” Napolitano added.
I think there will be a market for these in red and white “Their use of the third-party charities to actually pay them — so as to hide the payments from the donors and presumably from the government — is an effort to cover your trail,” the analyst noted. “Because they knew they had misled the donors.”
