Report: Bannon to Surrender on New York State over Charges in We Build the Wall Fraud

HeadlineSep 07, 2022

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon is expected to surrender Thursday in New York, where he faces state charges for defrauding donors to an anti-immigrant nonprofit called We Build the Wall. He is accused of personally pocketing donations that were given to privately fund sections of a barrier wall to be built along the U.S.-Mexico border. Bannon was first charged by federal prosecutors in 2020, but then he received a pardon from Donald Trump.
