Two Men from We Build the Wall Plead Guilty, Admit Bilking Donors
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Two men with ties to former Trump adviser Steve Bannon have pleaded
guilty and admitted to stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from
donors who supported their plan to privately build a wall along the
U.S.-Mexico border. Bannon had also been charged in the fraud case but
was pardoned by Donald Trump last year. A fourth man connected to the
group We Build the Wall is scheduled to go on trial next month.
