Steve Bannon arrested in alleged fraud scam linked to border wall

Hah! I just got to that part and came over here to comment.

Trump won’t object to his followers getting ripped off. But he will be pissed that somebody else was stealing money he planned on stealing.

Trump is speaking now. You guys nailed it almost word for word.

And because there is always a tweet: (from one year ago)

Ooops!

So does this additionally set them up for some sort of lawsuit for violating copyright laws?

(Pardon if I’m not catching your snark–I was speaking figuratively about the Hall of Villains.)

No snark. I’m not a comic book reader. I thought they actually named their LLC after something that was used by the DC comics publisher.

No–it just sounds that way. Why the HELL would you name your money-laundering scheme something like that, when you could instead name it “Fluffy Bunnies and Eagle Scouts LLC”?

A one up on: “Fraud Guarantee, LLP” ?

Face eating Leopards LLC

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement that Trump had previously disavowed the project.

“President Trump has always felt the Wall must be a government project and that it is far too big and complex to be handled privately,” she said, adding: “President Trump has not been involved with Steve Bannon since the campaign and the early part of the Administration, and he does not know the people involved with this project.”

At least Trump has the buses running on time.

Just a bit of schadenfreude thinking about these meatheads stealing from Trump supporters. OK, a lot of schadenfreude. :rofl:

Noice!

What about Bannon’s non-profit he named “Non-Profit-1”? These goons were just asking to get taken down.

If Trump is upset about this it’s only because his Capo didn’t kick up his cut.

Nevermind - I think Non-Profit-1 is code (similar to calling someone Individual-1). Why would they need to protect his fake non-profit?

It’s just shorthand so that they don’t have to keep writing the names over and over. All of the actual companies are listed near the end of the document.

I think Bannon’s is “Citizens of the American Republic.”

This made my day!

Bravo.
