    Populist icon Steve Bannon was sailing on this mega yacht when he was arrested on charges related to a scheme to defraud donors to the We Build the Wall nonprofit. https://www.burgessyachts.com/en/buy-a-yacht/yachts-for-sale/lady-may-00002702 …pic.twitter.com/C9jb7hw2wN

        For contrast, this is the mega yacht whose use is at the center of Jerry Falwell Jr.'s current scandal. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/20/falwells-yacht-use-under-scrutiny-399424 … https://www.1800yachtcharters.com/explore-our-yachts/wheels-164/ …pic.twitter.com/4j2g3dm7bn
