Steve Bannon set for New York trial starting Feb. 25, judge rules
CBSN
Steve Bannon, one of President-elect Donald Trump's loudest supporters, is scheduled for trial in February in a case in which Trump once pardoned him — but this time a White House pardon isn't on the table.
A judge Tuesday set Feb. 25 as the start of Bannon's trial on charges related to alleged money laundering, conspiracy and a scheme to defraud. The case stems from Bannon's alleged role in an organization that raised millions on the promise — during Trump's first term in office — that they would privately build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Bannon and the now-defunct group, called We Build the Wall, are accused of pocketing donations. He has entered a not guilty plea in the case and called the charges "nonsense," accusing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg of pursuing allegations out of political animus.
