Papadopoulos also minimized his interactions with the woman he had described as “Putin’s niece,” telling FBI investigators that he had no relationship with her, other than sending emails that amounted to “hi, how are you?”

There has to be some major puckering going on, not to mention many sleepless nights ahead in anyone who has been sucked into Trump's orbit. You have to wonder how far down/up the food chain Bob Mueller is willing to go.

“There’s a large-scale, ongoing investigation of which this case is a small part,” Aaron S.J. Zelinsky, a prosecutor on Mr. Mueller’s team, said at Mr. Papadopoulos’s plea hearing this month.
Must be plenty of fear in this corrupt administration this Halloween.

Trump, a man (or little boy) who lies multiple times per day, calls Pop a liar. Amusing.

Trump and his allies are laying the groundwork for a Saturday Night Massacre
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...ight-massacre/
Let’s be clear on what’s happening in our politics right now. President Trump and his media allies are currently creating a vast, multi-tentacled, largely-fictional alternate media reality that casts large swaths of our government as irredeemably corrupt — with the explicitly declared purpose of laying the rationale for Trump to pardon his close associates or shut down the Russia probe, should he deem either necessary.

This is an indeed scary situation and if it happens, hope the Blue states can hold back payments to the Treasury.

Now Trump's White House is claiming credit for Papadopoulos' arrest. You can't make this shit up.
The White House on Tuesday sought to take credit for the arrest of a former Trump campaign aide who had repeated contacts with Russia-linked officials offering “dirt” on Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton — marking the latest damage control move as the Russia probe intensifies...
Trump derided Papadopoulos on Tuesday morning as a “liar,” while former campaign aide Michael Caputo dismissed him as “the coffee boy.”
Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders went further Tuesday afternoon, claiming the White House and the campaign deserved credit for helping Mueller’s team build its case that Papadopoulos had lied to the FBI about his contacts.
