Summary

Steve Bannon pleaded guilty to defrauding donors of “We Build the Wall,” an online fundraiser for Trump’s border wall.

Under a plea deal, he avoids jail but faces a three-year conditional discharge, barring him from charity leadership and fundraising.

Prosecutors said Bannon secretly funneled donor money to the group’s president, despite promises otherwise.

Bannon, who was previously pardoned by Trump on federal charges, criticized the New York attorney general after his plea.
