A "STATE indictment" in the Southern District of New York (SDNY)? And "U.S. District Judge"?

Did you just post ....

"...know the law. Numb nuts"

?

Did these alleged activities have anything to do with "Russian Collusion"?

How about fucking hot Russian ladies? Not that either?

The best part is that it wasnt the FBI that arrested him. It was the United States Postal Inspection Service.


Quite a significant amount of detailed factual evidence pleaded in this indictment. If the prosecutors can prove even half of it—and there’s no reason to believe they can’t prove all of it—they have the defendants dead to rights. It’s an open-and-shut wire fraud case. Major prison exposure for Bannon.


If he flips you have to realize that it is because he knows that Trump won't be around to pardon him.

Don’t think so BambiBoy ..it’s a STATE Indictment

That's a distinction without a difference. It does not rebut the point about NY liberal bias against Trump.

If anything, NY state courts are even more biased than NY federal courts.

So, the point still stands.

Also, federal courts can charge state law violations against criminal defendants if there are also federal charges that can be combined with the state charges.

In the case of fraud, there are almost ALWAYS grounds for a federal charge because the federal wire fraud statutes are so broad. It is practically impossible to commit a large scale fraud without using phones or the internet.

Just more illegal shit from trump buddies. No wonder trump n Barr dogg can't do a decent job for taxpayers

Of course Trump has denied knowing any of the people other than Bannon involved in that scam.

Did he also deny knowings Bannon too?

Trumpers forgive the guy for stealing the "build the wall" money. They don't care about anything but winning even if they know they are voting for a criminal enterprise. They lie, steal, cheat. Trumpers just shrug it off.

I just hope Canada will tear down that wall!!! And let Americans in just in case Putin pulls off another miracle to keep America really stupid. Twit head will pardon all his crook buddies and appoint them as acting for his services on his protection committee

Bannon Was Busted on Luxury Yacht Owned by Billionaire Chinese Fugitive

The notoriously anti-China populist, who has also railed against the “global elites,” was arrested by inspectors from the U.S. Postal Service while cruising Long Island Sound in the $28 million vessel Lady May. Just the day before his arrest, Bannon appeared to host a podcast episode from the yacht and even interviewed We Build the Wall’s founder Brian Kolfage to promote the fundraiser.

While Bannon is most likely involved in this scam (he IS known as a grifter)... Trump literally has nothing to do with it, other than the fact that they used his Wall plan as a way to create a scam.



Trump isn't involved in this one-- he's been distancing himself from Bannon for quite some time now. He learned that the price to pay for Bannon using Breitbart to help him get elected... was entirely too steep.. and he learned just how much of a shit human Bannon really is. Or rather.. he has always known, but decided to use it to his advantage until the disadvantages started outweighing the advantages.



Once again-- it wouldn't surprise me if they have him dead to rights-- but it really has nothing to do with Trump.

it looks like they were trying help brian kolfage.


post office inspectors arrested bannon? interesting.


Bannon has money, why would he get involved in a scam?
