NEW YORK—Steve Bannon, the onetime top strategist for former President Donald Trump and recipient of a presidential pardon, on Tuesday won dismissal of an indictment that accused him of defrauding donors to a fund to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres in Manhattan said that a dismissal was “the proper course” in light of the pardon, which Bannon received in the final hours of Trump’s presidency.
