That didn't take long either. Another Trump adviser, George Papadopolous, just pled guilty to lying to the FBI about his Russian contacts. He's apparently now co-operating with the Feds in hopes of sentencing relief. He pled guilty at the beginning of the month, but the plea was just announced today.

Defendant PAPADOPOULOS claimed that his interactions with an overseas professor, who defendant PAPADOPOULOS understood to have substantial connections to Russian government officials, occurred before defendant PAPADOPOULOS became a foreign policy adviser to the Campaign. Defendant PAPADOPOULOS acknowledged that the professor had told him about the Russians possessing "dirt" on then-candidate Hillary Clinton in the form of "thousands of emails," but stated multiple times that he learned that information prior to joining the Campaign. In truth and in fact, however, defendant PAPADOPOULOS learned he would be an advisor to the Campaign in early March, and met the professor on or about March 14, 2016; the professor only took interest in defendant
PAPADOPOULOS because of his status with the Campaign; and the professor told defendant PAPADOPOULOS about the "thousands of emails" on or about April 26, 2016, when defendant PAPADOPOULOS had been a foreign policy adviser to the Campaign for over a month.

Through his false statements and omissions, defendant PAPADOPOULOS impeded the FBI 's ongoing investigation into the existence of any links or coordination between individuals associated with the Campaign and the Russian government' s efforts to interfere with the 2016 presidential election.

And that's only what's in the pleadings that were filed.

It's still too early for a BINGO, but keep your cards. There will be more coming.

Well, everyone who had Michael Flynn, you can color in that square now. And the fact that he's only charged with one count means that he's flipped. Some might nervous people around the White House. Jared Kushner better start packing his toothbrush.

I’ve read a report stating Flynn will testify that Donny directed him during the campaign to contact the Russian government. —Bob

Nope, it was Kushner. But who told Kushner to do it?

ABC has retracted the story, saying that the direction occurred after the election but before the Inauguration. —Bob
