Steve Bannon, former top adviser of United States of America President, Donald Trump, has today been charged to court for alleged $25m fraud.
Bannon is facing charges for his role in an online fundraiser, “We Build the Wall,” started for the purpose of erecting a wall on the Mexican border.
The venture which was never embarked upon, fetched Bannon and two others the sum of $25m.
