Conservative strategist Steve Bannon’s border wall fundraising trial has been postponed to February, instead of next month. A New York judge reset the date Monday.

Summary

Steve Bannon’s trial on state charges of conspiracy and money laundering related to the WeBuildTheWall Inc. charity has been postponed to February 25.

Prosecutors allege misuse of donor funds, including over $600,000 to pay off a credit card debt linked to another Bannon nonprofit.

The judge is also considering whether to keep the jury anonymous, following a request by prosecutors.

Bannon recently completed a federal prison sentence for contempt of Congress.
