the door for Mueller. He also probably did more damage to the Trump Crime Family than he even realizes.
Papadopoulos isn't the lowly "campaign volunteer" that Trump likes to pretend he is, but he's not as big as Trump, Stone, Manafort, et al.

Plea deals.

IMO, the later the charges, the more severe they could be. Besides, Mueller would be very intimidating to a target.

that was supposed to be about aliens and ghosts but did a lot of global warming denial and anti dem/liberal conspiracy bullshit

and they would also get stone on there - aside from all other RW talk radio related work going back to stone in 2000 times using cuban rw talk radio etc to stop recounts etc.

and manafort/putin/limbaugh may have coordinated to force mccain to pick palin, who was meeting with russians about alaskan oil gas deals - manafort was the campaign cochair and limbaugh wouldn't endorse mccain - a disaster - until he picked palin - timed within minutes of the startt of the limbaugh show so he could announce it and finally support mccain on the eve of the gop convention

they're all up to their necks in vast rw conspiracy and hopefully mueller will expose how putin's been using the vast rw conspiracy fake news media to spread global warming denial, anti-democratic bullshit, racism, and fascism

And I don't know if he is innocent of whatever charges there might be. But I do know that very few people have the resources to withstand a federal investigation. So people in the country who are in fact innocent plead to some charge just to get it behind them. They don't have hundreds of thousands of dollars to spend on lawyers, etc. to defend themselves. Do you?

This has been going on for over a week. Corsi was scheduled to appear on something -- I believe a right-wing show -- when his lawyer called him to say don't talk publicly. The lawyer immediately recognized that Mueller had Corsi by his (tiny) balls, and began seeking terms.

To a country club person like Corsi -- or any of the lily-white Republicans (are there any other kind?) in Trumpworld -- the prospect of spending the rest of their life as a prison plaything has to be a powerful incentive to cooperate with Mueller.

Besides, he doesn't look good in orange:
