Bannon’s Guilty Plea: No Jail Time Sparks Outrage
Steve Bannon pleaded guilty to defrauding donors to the “We Build the Wall” campaign, avoiding jail time under a plea deal. The agreement resolves state-level charges related to misappropriation of funds intended for border wall construction. Bannon, a former Trump strategist, will face restrictions on fundraising and charitable activities for three years. This plea comes after a federal pardon from President Trump and follows the convictions of other individuals involved in the project.
