By Michael Warren Davis, Crisis Magazine - On August 20, Stephen K. Bannon was arrested on charges of fraud connected to $1 million he received from an organization called We Build the Wall, Inc.
We Build the Wall began as a GoFundMe campaign. Its goal was to raise funds to build the “Trump Wall” along the U.S./Mexico border. Eventually, it evolved into a 501(c)(4) nonprofit—We Build the Wall, Inc.—which is now worth $25 million. Mr. Bannon serves as chairman of the group’s advisory board, and supposedly allocated $350,000 to We Build the Wall’s founder and president, Brian Kolfage.
