HARLINGEN, Texas (Border Report) — Reaction to the arrests of We Build the Wall’s leaders was swift and stinging Thursday in South Texas, where many oppose a 3-mile border wall that the organization raised money to build on private property this year along the Rio Grande south of Mission, Texas.
On Thursday, President Donald Trump’s former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, and three associates of We Build The Wall were indicted on criminal charges that they crowdsourced online to raise over $25 million to build private border wall structures, but actually spent very little of the funds on the wall. The indictment, which was unsealed in New York, alleges that Bannon took $1 million of the donated funds and gave it to co-defendant Brian Kolfage, founder of We Build the Wall, for his personal use. According to the indictment, the defendants used fake invoices and sham vendor arrangements to try to hide their efforts. Under the arrangement, Bannon and his co-defendants allegedly paid Kolfage $100,000 up front and an additional $20,000 monthly.

It’s everything we’ve been saying for the last nine months,” said Marianna Treviño Wright, the executive director of the National Butterfly Center in Mission who has filed a civil defamation lawsuit against We Build the Wall that is pending in federal court in McAllen, Texas.
The privately-funded border wall is located near the Butterfly Center’s riverfront headquarters. Treviño Wright and the butterfly center, which also is a co-plaintiff in the lawsuit, contend that they have been at the center of a smear campaign by We Build the Wall organizers who have labeled them as involved in “human trafficking” and “drug smuggling” through various social media posts.
