“Build The Wall” Founder Participated In FL Trump Boat Parade, Feds Say He Bought The Boat With Donor Funds

The Verge reports:



The recently unsealed case alleges that Bannon and others broke repeated promises to put “100 percent” of donations toward the wall. The group secretly arranged private payments through a nonprofit, giving Kolfage $100,000 within months of starting fundraising.

While claiming the funds went toward social media expenses, they allegedly diverted $350,000 to Kolfage — money Kolfage allegedly used to buy a boat (apparently named “Warfighter”), a luxury SUV, and cosmetic surgery.

“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,” said US attorney Audrey Strauss.
