Steve Bannon, Destined For the New Sculpture Garden

Former White House chief strategist, Steve Bannon, was arrested for fraud in connection with bilking investors who contributed to Bannon's 'Build the Wall' fund.

'Bannon, Kolfage, Andrew Badolato and Timothy Shea are charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering.
"As alleged, the defendants defrauded hundreds of thousands of donors, capitalizing on their interest in funding a border wall to raise millions of dollars, under the false pretense that all of that money would be spent on construction," Acting Manhattan US Attorney Audrey Strauss said in a statement. "While repeatedly assuring donors that Brian Kolfage, the founder and public face of We Build the Wall, would not be paid a cent, the defendants secretly schemed to pass hundreds of thousands of dollars to Kolfage, which he used to fund his lavish lifestyle." -CNN

The Post Office Gets Castrated


"The items are the post office and the $3.5 billion for mail-in voting,"  Donald Trump told Fox Business Network, saying Democrats want to give the post office $25 billion. "If we don't make the deal, that means can't have the money, that means they can't have universal mail-in voting. It's just can't happen." -Donald Trump

'The president has repeatedly claimed that the 2020 election will be “rigged” and rife with fraud if an expected surge of mail-in ballots is allowed to take place.

The president’s most recent comments suggest he believes he can quash expanded mail-in voting plans, and the Postal Service’s ability to accommodate them, if he refuses to agree to fund those efforts.'   -CNBC
