Summary
Steve Bannon's trial on state charges of fraud, conspiracy, and money laundering pertaining to the 'We Build the Wall' campaign is now set for February 25, 2025. Initially scheduled for December 9, the trial was delayed after prosecutors were allowed to present evidence that linked charity funds to Bannon's other nonprofit's debts. Bannon, who has pleaded not guilty, is under scrutiny following a previous federal indictment for similar allegations that resulted in a presidential pardon from Trump. The case has gained significant attention, especially considering Bannon's recent prison term for contempt of Congress.
