Papadopoulos Says Silence Was Never An Option


By Josh Kovensky

November 21, 2018 1:44 pm

As if anyone had any doubts remaining, George Papadopoulos tweeted on Wednesday that “all must be exposed” amid a court battle in which he is petitioning a judge to delay the start of his jail term.

I NEVER flipped against the president. What I did do, however, is expose the corruption of this “investigation” for the world to see. The legacy is what matters now, how history remembers these days. Silence during these critical days was never an option. All must be exposed.

Truth? Well, THAT does seem to be an option for you! And one you prefer not to use...

Can the judge change the sentence? Is that what the prosecutors will seek? This seems like a curious position for Papadopolous and a bad strategy.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.

I doubt the judge is going to let him withdraw his plea. Period.
