I read the info on this when it was new. It honestly sounds like they got him dead to rights. He stuck his dick in the crocodile's mouth and then cried political persecution when he got bit.

The dude solicited millions and millions in donations on the basis that like a janny, the main guy "does it for free", and then he had a secret deal with the guy to backdoor a huge amount of money to him through his PAC or whatever, making the solicitations fraudulent. There are tons of emails with them telling on themselves and a clear paper trail of the money being paid to Bannon, Bannon keeping most of it, then paying a bunch back to the guy.

Bannon was VERY HIGH VISIBILITY and a major political lightning rod, engaged in a VERY CONTROVERSIAL project (private border wall construction) and the dude decided to run a fucking grift to enrich himself, then only after he got tipped off that the feds were snooping around did he stop and try to cover up what he'd already done. He deserves everything he gets for being such a dumbass. It's such a shame that Trump was surrounded by people like this, but unfortunately when you are a political outsider, it turns out that the outcasts who you cobble together are often shady. Sad.

edit: so I wasn't following this story and just looked it up

  1. He was dead to rights on federal charges

  2. Trump pardoned him as he was leaving office [honestly shitty and should not have been done]

  3. "In August 2022 he was indicted by the Manhattan District Attorney on New York State charges" I have not seen the charges and do not know whether the jurisdictional nexus is valid or if any state law actually applies. I am doubtful that if they had a case, that they would have waited over a year and a half to bring charges, since they're just going to copy all the evidence over from the pardoned federal prosecution.
