Mr. Bannon was separately indicted during Mr. Trump’s first term, charged with misusing money he helped raise for a group backing Mr. Trump’s border wall.
Extracted from: Lawmakers Review Unredacted Epstein Files , The New York Times
Evidence
“An effort to fund Mr. Trump’s wall on the border with Mexico led to charges that Mr. Bannon had pocketed hundreds of thousands of dollars in funds from contributors. A state court sentenced him to three years’ probation on a fraud charge in February 2025, but Mr. Bannon escaped a trial on related federal charges when Mr. Trump pardoned him just before leaving office in January 2021.”
