A former political adviser of United States
President, Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, was
on Thursday arrested for his role in an online
fundraising scheme.
The NBC reports that Bannon was charged
with fraud by a Manhattan attorney for
defrauding people of millions of dollars.
In a statement by acting US Attorney, Audrey
Strauss, Bannon was said to have capitalized
on donors’ interest in building a border wall to
raise millions of dollars later channelled to
fund the “lavish lifestyle” of “We Build The
Wall” founder and public face Brian Kolfage.
