In the twilight of his administration, Donald Trump pardoned Bannon for charges that he conspired to commit wire fraud and money laundering in connection with a crowdfunded effort to construct a barrier on the U.S.-Mexico border, but the former president left Bannon’s accused co-conspirators twisting in the wind on similar accusations.
Now, two of the three remaining defendants — We Build the Wall’s president Brian Kolfage and Timothy Shea — have signaled plans to “enter pleas of guilty to the certain charges” against them without a trial. We Build the Wall promised that every penny raised would go to construction, but prosecutors said Bannon pocketed $1 million.
Kolfage took $350,000 plus went on a spending spree to buy a Jupiter Marine yacht called the Warfighter, a Range Rover SUV, a golf cart, jewelry, and cosmetic surgery, according to the indictment.

How exactly did a space dedicated to the study and preservation of the lepidoptera land in the crosshairs of far-right extremists?
