Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon charged with fraud in border wall campaign

So it is not false. It is unproven -- which means that they don't know if it is true or not.

It's unproven that you are a drug smuggler and until proven otherwise, the accusation remains unproven and you will be called a drug peddler for everyone else's political convenience.
 
That's the problem with meth-head criminals . . . . . they become sloppy and greedy that the other guy is pocketing more.

Trump directed Homeland Security to give $400 million to firm tied to Bannon’s We Build the Wall scheme

President Donald Trump was caught in a precarious position when one of his top former aides and former campaign CEO was indicted for fraud after running a fake effort to build the wall on the southern American border.

Over a year ago, the Pentagon inspector general began looking into a suspicious $400 million contract given from the Department of Homeland Security to the construction company linked to Bannon’s group. The funds came at Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-ND) and Trump’s urging

“On Dec. 2, the Pentagon announced a contract worth up to $400 million to Fisher Sand and Gravel for the construction of 31 miles of new border barriers along the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge in southern Arizona,” said the Washington Post.

CEO Tommy Fisher launched an aggressive effort to try and score a contract, making several appearances on Fox News and paying at least $100,000 in lobbying. Fisher also personally lobbied the president, gave hefty donations to Cramer’s Senate campaign, and attacked the Army Corps of Engineers for excluding their firm. Fisher was then Cramer’s guest to Trump’s State of the Union Address in 2019.

“The company also has partnered with right-wing activist group We Build the Wall to construct fencing on private land with millions of dollars raised through online donations,” said the Post.

The American Civil Liberties Union said that they are demanding answers:
 
So it is not false. It is unproven -- which means that they don't know if it is true or not.

I will fucking pay for you to do a course on logical fallacies at this stage.

It gets worse..

If Snopes has evidence that it is false then they state directly it is false.

Unproven simply means it is unproven to be either true or false.

Or is means there is no evidence.

Have you heard or Russell's teapot?
 
Try this on for logic

Unproven does not equal false

For goodness sake man, you have a nearly average intelligence brain, use it.

Russell's teapot is an analogy, formulated by the philosopher Bertrand Russell, to illustrate that the philosophic burden of proof lies upon a person making unfalsifiable claims, rather than shifting the burden of disproof to others. Russell specifically applied his analogy in the context of religion.Wikipedia

So by the time you twist all of Russell's mumbo-jumbo around into something reasonable -- it can only mean that Unproven equals True.

Let's go to the definition of Unproven provided by Snopes.
This is the standard that should be used when attempting to assert something from the Snopes website.
"This rating indicates that insufficient evidence exists to establish the given claim as true, but the claim cannot be definitively proved false."
