TL;DR Summary

Steve Bannon, former adviser to Donald Trump, is set to stand trial in May 2024 for his alleged role in defrauding Americans who paid money towards the construction of a southern border wall. Bannon faces five felony counts including money laundering and conspiracy, and could face a maximum sentence of five to 15 years on the most serious charge. He was pardoned by Trump in 2020, but Manhattan prosecutors were able to charge him because he had not yet faced a trial. Trump himself will stand trial two months earlier than his former adviser, if both cases proceed as planned.
