    What a turn of events that would be....Papadopolous is beginning to feel as though he was SET UP, it seems.

    Perhaps a DEEPER LOOK into the relationship between disgraced former CIA director John Brennan ,the Obama Swamp KGB-FBI/DOJ, MISFUD AND DOWNER, etal, would be in order.

    And, of course, FINDING Misfud for questioning would be a plus, too, wouldn't it? He has "coincidentally" FALLEN OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH....shades of the Trump Tower BLATANT SETUP.

    Meanwhile, Papadopolous has failed to help the Witch Hunt Create a Crime for Pres.Trump, and they're not happy about it.

    In addition forcing a trial would give Papadopolous the right to DISCOVERY, which include records of ALL OBAMA SWAMP dealings with Misfud, Downey, etal….


    Papadopoulos could decide to withdraw guilty plea this week, wife says

    George Papadopoulos, the embattled former foreign policy advisor to Donald Trump’s campaign, is strongly considering backing away from the agreement he struck with special counsel Robert Mueller that led him to plead guilty to lying to the FBI, his wife told ABC News.

    The decision will be fraught for Papadopoulos, who pledged to assist prosecutors with the probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign in exchange for lenience on charges that, according to his wife, may have included allegations of improper work for the Israeli government.

    If he backs away now, she said, he could face a raft of new charges.

    Papadopoulos pleaded guilty in October to lying to the FBI about his contacts during the campaign with a professor who, prosecutors alleged in court filings, had “substantial connections to Russian government officials.”

    Court records filed by Mueller said the professor approached Papadopoulos after learning of his role in the Trump campaign. The court filing does not name the professor, but he has since been widely identified as Joseph Mifsud, then the director of the London Academy of Diplomacy. ABC News has been unable to reach Mifsud for comment.

    The professor told Papadopoulos the Russians had “dirt” on Democrat Hillary Clinton in the form of “thousands of emails” that they had procured, according to the court documents.

    Papadopoulos reportedly bragged about that offer to an Australian diplomat, who then tipped off the FBI and launched that agency’s counterintelligence investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
