A Manhattan state court judge on Tuesday said he expects Steve Bannon, a longtime ally of former President Donald Trump, will face trial on money laundering and fraud charges in November 2023.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James on Sept. 8 announced that Bannon, 58, and the Florida-based nonprofit We Build the Wall Inc. had been indicted for allegedly collecting more than $15 million from thousands of donors on false pretenses in a year-long scheme.
