1. In federal custody

For fraud involved in crowdfunding campaign “We build the wall”

[AllyCat]

28. Those 3 words just made my morning

Conservatives view any opportunity to make money for themselves as fair game, especially when it is theft.

[skip fox]

2. fantastic!!!!!

[Sanity Claws]

3. Today is a good day!

6. Ohhh, mail fraud, detected by US Postal Inspection Service!

Maybe this is part of Turd's motivation to destroy USPS!

[h2ebits]

30. My immediate thought also.

I think we have found the reason for Trump to destroy the USPS. Sounds like another Trump University, Trump steaks, etc.

[uponit7771]

58. +1, right now its just wire fraud which isn't that far away if documents had to be mailed ...

... but Trump will no doubt Pardon Manafort

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

60. Yep...

... I hadn't noticed your post before I made my Postal Inspectors comment below. As a former USPS employee, if the Postal Inspectors are on to you, they are going to get you.

[Johnny2X2X]

7. Lock him Up, Lock him Up, Lock him Up!!!

He's in custody! Fantastic!

[Scarsdale]

50. Oh, no!

He will have to peel off those layers of shirts, take a shower and wash his hair! FINALLY.

[BKDem]

8. Gotta love that it's Wall-related

It's all about greed, not policy.

[SiliconValley_Dem]

12. excellent!

[superpatriotman]

13. The Human Fund

A fund for humans

[rownesheck]

48. I don't think

Costanza was ever brought to justice over that. I hope SDNY will investigate.

[Claustrum]

14. Um.... I guess Trump has another friend to send a pardon soon n/t

[soothsayer]

18. Yup

[OAITW r.2.0]

23. Trump can't help him....this is going to be slow walked by prosecuters

until Trump/Pence are out of office. Can't pardon if no conviction occurs before the Trump regime ends.

[Native]

55. I wonder if they've got more they've been holding off bringing forward for this very reason

Wouldn't it be wonderful if indictments just starting rolling off the production line now?

[uponit7771]

59. He can still pardon Bannon based just on the charges, it would've been better for SDNY to wait to

... charge Bannon so I think Barrs fingers on in this big time.

[Dios Mio]

68. I never met the guy.

[USALiberal]

15. So, another Trump pardon??? nt

16. BANNON Indicted?!

[NurseJackie]

17. Will Trump pardon him before it even gets going?

[duhneece]

56. That was my first thought-questio

Can Trump pardon him?

[uponit7771]

61. yes, there's no benefit of the doubt extended to a braggart of passing dementia tests

[maxrandb]

19. Maybe this is another reason traitor Billy Barr tried to get his

own corrupt dipshit in this office.

The guy who made sure his job went to his successor as required by law should get a fucking medal.

[Johnny2X2X]

20. Please let there be footage of his arrest!

Hope he resisted and was thrown to the cement. He's a lowlife.

[thinkingagain]

21. Is the us attorney Strauss

Thanking USPIS as in The United States Postal Inspection Service?
For their help in bringing bannon and crew in for their part in the fraud?
Is that why the sudden destruction of the Post office mail? I know that trump has been set to destroy it but it had sudden upturn in destruction.

[octoberlib]

22. One of the reasons Barr was trying to get Berman

out of the way

24. I love the SDNY! They give me hope when all else fails.

This story made my day!

Now, get ready for Trump. We're relieving him of POTUS duties on Nov. 3rd and he will be a private citizen January 20th. He'll be all yours!

[Chichiri]

25. Here's the SDNY press release.

27. So Bannon is not going to speak at the RNC next week?

Link to tweet

[Trueblue Texan]

29. So THAT'S why he's suddenly resurfaced in the media!

[Buckeye_Democrat]

31. Like a harsh liquor, 2020 is improving with age!

Drink up, Bannon! Smoooth!

[Progressive dog]

32. Barr and his client must be furious.

IMO Barr will try to squelch the indictments before Bannon trades knowledge of other criminals for leniency.

[RoadRunner]

33. Holy Moly

Only the best people

[Codeine]

34. I did Nazi that coming. nt

[2Legit]

44. Ha!! Good one.

I have spent nearly four years trying to figure out what Democrats needed to do to take these asshats down. Turns out that, one by one, they are getting just a wee bit too sloppy with their arrogance and they are taking themselves out. It's the sweet, sweet comeuppance of hubris.

37. Haha

Birds of a feather

[Butterflylady]

38. Evidently the people that donated money

Were that stupid that they would think they could raise billions of dollars to build their stupid wall. Good, I for one am glad they got conned. Hopefully they spent their wad so they won't be able to donate to orange face.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

39. Trump pardon pending?

Just the kind of stupid election year stunt he'd be inclined to pull.

[Lonesome Beet]

47. I'd imagine Bannon has more than enough dirt on Drumpf

to warrant a pardon. Or to put in his "tell all" book. Decisions, decisions...

[magicarpet]

97. Bannon gave lots of juicy tidbits to Woodward about trDumpie,...

.... for inclusion to Woodward's newer book,... "Fear: trDump in the White House".

[Chainfire]

40. All and all he's just another brick in the wall

Or, Mr. Biden, tear down that wall.

[Tommymac]

65. Great comment! Best of the day so far imho +10000

[RainCaster]

41. "I know the best people"

He will get to know a lot more like that in Leavenworth.

[SergeStorms]

42. Some DUers called this years ago...

it was always a shady deal from the get-go. I expect pardons to be flying out of the Oval Office soon.

https://upload.democraticunderground.com/10142227107

THE ENTIRE LOT ARE NOTHING BUT CROOKS AND LIARS!

[Ponietz]

73. Great -- appreciated that

[smirkymonkey]

43. Who could have possibly seen this coming ?

"We Build The Wall" Fund. What suckers!

[In It to Win It]

45. Well, this morning just got much more entertaining!

[rateyes]

46. Thoughts and prayers, Steve. Womp womp. Wanna

bet that Trump got his cut, too?

[TNNurse]

49. He has to be convicted and sentenced first,

no reason not to drag that out for awhile.

[SergeStorms]

52. And even if he was convicted...

he'd probably be forced to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom as his penance.

[Stellar]

51. Trump always said he knew all the best people. NT

[TNNurse]

62. He knows a lot of criminals.

[NCjack]

53. Attention all Republican Federal Jailbirds.

Steven Bannon regrets that due to sluggish activity by DOJ, he does not expect to be incarcerated before the November 2020 election. Therefore, he will not accept the role of organizing the Republican Federal Jailbirds for Trump 2020.

However, he wishes to be considered for 2024.

[Ilsa]

88. That would make a great twitter handle. LOL. nt

[rateyes]

54. I bet "non-profit 1" is COAR. Bannon is fucked!

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

57. United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) got him...

... no wonder Trump and the GOP are out to kill the USPS. Their law enforcement arm nailed their scammers.

[MontanaMama]

63. This.

100% this. There’s more to come no doubt. The election is only part,of the reason they want to kill the USPS.

[crickets]

71. Yep! There's more to the USPS than mail delivery. nt

64. Kris Kobach and Curt Schilling Are on the Build the Wall Pac

77. And Eric Prince on the Advisory Board?! WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!

Run and hide, Eric! Run and hide!

Maybe your no-good public-school-killer sister Betsy DeVos can help you hide out.

Or maybe you'll have to hide out in the Seychelles or some out-of-the-way place far across the globe because the minute you set food on US soil, they're gonna arrest your ass?

79. Haul their asses into court as defendants/witnesses. Flip 'em. nt

66. "WHO'S GONNA PAY FOR THE WALL???" I guess the answer is "Stupid MAGAts!"

"Who's gonna grift off those stupid MAGAts?"

69. I'm greedy...I hope Stephen Miller is next.

[Ligyron]

70. Brian Kolfage is that RW Air Force nutbag or his father of the same name I think.

The son got one hand and his legs blown during a mortar attack in Kuwait but has milked his misfortune for all it's worth. He was often the subject of Barrack Obama's Werewolf Army satire site and I remember a lot of funny exchanges between the two over the period of a year or two back before Trump was installed.

I think another site, the Goat Army got involved at one point but were unsuccessful in gaining administrator status and basically destroying the site with ridicule as was their usual and usually successful aim on other RW nutbag hangouts.

It figures he'd participate in this sham and was no doubt little more than a useful idiot for Bannon who's light year's ahead of Kolfage in the brain department. Glad to see Bannon was dragged into this as it was no doubt his idea to begin with and probably thought he'd be able to hide behind Kolfage successfully.

for breakfast.

And all the other convicts.

I haven't awakened giggling with joy like this since my honeymoon!

81. I just visited the We Build the Wall website

there's a quote from scumbag jr "this is capitalism at its finest". Also quotes from Lewandowski, Gohmert,and others.

Then I clicked on the "buy a brick" link and got this message:

"Looks like something went completely wrong! but don't worry
It can happen to the best of us, and it just happened to you."

No, it didn't happen to me. Today it happened to you guys, for scamming people and being asshole grifters.

[FelineOverlord]

82. Bannon arrested on his boat

Remember the photo the other day when he looked like a drunk, sunburned sailor

Any word on the 3 others?

Don't think he can get away with pardons for all 4 and they all can sing.

[triron]

91. I am eager to know as well.

94. Timothy Shea

According to public records, Shea is 49 years old and lives in Castle Rock, Colorado, with his wife, Amanda. He currently works as a realtor, according to public records, and also owns a pro-Trump themed energy drink company called Winning Energy.

The company’s website described the product as “the official fuel of winners” and 12-ounce energy drinks made from “liberal tears made in America.”

86. Bannon was ON A YACHT when he was picked up?

That is sweet. I hope he was wearing more than a Speedo swimsuit. I wonder how inebriated he was on a Thursday morning on a yacht?

[demmiblue]

87. Another kick.

[Woodwizard]

89. I love it

90. Guess who: "I know nothing about it. I had nothing to do with it. It's been

a long time since I saw or talked to any of them." Answer: Pres. Trump.

Everything with this gang of criminals is a scam or fraud.
