The veteran who set up the GoFundMe fundraiser for President Trump's border wall
allegedly pocketed money meant for wounded veterans in the past, according to a new
BuzzFeed News investigation.

Brian Kolfage, a triple amputee and Purple Heart recipient, reportedly previously
spearheaded a crowdfunding campaign that raised thousands of dollars for an effort to
mentor veterans at military hospitals.
