In a newly-discovered video clip from a 2019 “We Build the Wall” telethon, Steve Bannon jokingly brags about being on a “million dollar yacht” with Brian Kolfage, who Bannon quips paid for the yacht with “all that money” from donors.
Both men were arrested yesterday — Bannon was actually on a yacht — and charged with fraud and money laundering.
