why was the indictment-plea of Pap unsealed today? was there some timeframe that forced it? i can't imagine that if he was still participating that they'd put it out there into the public like this, although i could be wrong

Sounds like Mueller may have reached the end, and this is all he got out of it

Unless he's now going after the Podestas

Wondering if Papadopolous is a cooperating witness now.


"now"?...lol.

he's referred to by the DOJ as a "proactive cooperator." that's a specific term of art that we prosecutors use.

it means at some point he wore a wire.

why would they unseal his indictment/plea today, if he's this major cooperator? what advantage does that bring, on today of all days?

Let's be real for one minute..

Dude was trying to dig up dirt on Clinton. He was trying to get it from Russians. Higher-ups in the campaign knew it. They made efforts to keep DT's name out of it. The Trump campaign ended up meeting with Russians for exactly the reason dude was working on.

Now, collusion isn't a crime
But that is certainly collusion

So all of the cries about the SC don't matter. There's collusion, and he's investigating it, and it will continue for a while.

it's a message to the Executive branch that there's more coming (a lot more), and it's related to the original charge given the Special Counsel.

in other words, shite's about to get real.

but it appears to be completely independent of each other

i mean even accepting all of your above as true, everyone was "colluding" with Russia. if it's not a crime, then what are we doing? if it is a crime, is everyone going to jail? i honestly don't care either way.

still doesn't make any sense, especially given that it has to share the spotlight with Manafort (which isn't related to Trump)

why not wait a week, or release the info a week prior? having it dropped the same day as Manafort doesn't make much sense unless there is some law requiring its release.

even his indictment says the meeting he was trying to have, never happened

NBC News: Manafort is one of the unnamed officials in Papadopoulos document

So this is how they are connected. Mueller has Papadopolus' confession with emails including Manafort telling him to work with the Russians on Clinton dirt.

so we expect more indictments against Manfort? because what he was indicted for has literally nothing to do with Pap's case

do we think that the prosecutor is threatening Manafort when he already dropped like 10 charges on him today?

And what message did it send to Podesta, since he doesn't happen to be part of the Executive branch

I think you're about to be hugely surprised on who the shite is about to get real on

How would Papadopolus know that the “Professor” had substantial connections to Russian government officials?
