Papadopoulos gave Mueller four people to be investigated as part of his guilty plea

Former US Attorney reveals Papadopoulos gave Mueller four people to be investigated as part of his guilty plea
Tom Boggioni TOM BOGGIONI 04 NOV 2017 AT 13:37 ET

Appearing on MSNBC, a former U.S. attorney said that it appears that former Trump advisor George Papadopoulos gave special counsel Robert Mueller the names of four people who may now be under investigation — or cooperating with the FBI– as part of his guilty plea.

Speaking with host Alex Witt, ex-U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade said the former Trump advisor may be a “small fish” in Trump’s world, but that he wouldn’t have received the plea deal his lawyers got from Mueller without giving up valuable information — including names linked to Trump.

“He is now cooperating with Mueller’s probe,” Witt remarked. “It’s part of his plea deal. Is it likely at this point that Mueller has gathered a lot more information from Papadopoulos than we are aware of at this point?”

“I think that’s highly likely,” McQuade began.

Figuring out how and when to make the movie.

Right now, we are living the first part of the movie.
Hollywood is waiting for the middle and ending parts.

Overwhelming at times...we are just beginning! So, keeping daily details would be essential for a good story.... bringing out the American anxiety along with details.

Ohhh....this is huge.

Those of us who have lived through momentous times understand.

And the movie cannot be made yet since the story is just now unfolding.
Buy yes, someone out there is probably keeping good notes for the book and movie that will come out one day.
