Special Counsel Robert Mueller recommended in a court filing on Friday that a judge sentence former Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos to up to six months in prison for lying to federal agents investigating whether Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Papadopoulos pleaded guilty in October to lying to FBI agents and is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 7.
According to Muellers sentencing memorandum to the judge, Papadopoulos lied about his contacts with people who claimed to have ties to top Russian officials, including his meeting with a professor who said Russia had dirt on Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The defendants crime was serious and caused damage to the governments investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, Muellers memo said.

P2 recommends 6yr for Mueller at Club Gitmo’ for RICO Sedition.
Poor little Schmuck, Mueller claims a ridiculous victory.
What? No collusion with the Rooskies by Trump?
I'd like a complete explanation wrt the alleged "damage"...
Is this a felony?
I’ll have to second that recommendation.
My understanding is he was confused by the questions, then he was hung for lying.
Mueller needs to be perp walked bigtime.
And I demand Spandau Prison for life for Gestapo Chief Müller
6 years in prison for John Brennan
Recommend hanging for treason for Mueller.
The FBI can lie to you and the American people but if they say you lied to them whether you did or not you go to jail. The FBI is not worth the danger they now pose to the Republic.
What did the FBI know about the New Mexico child terrorist training camp and when did they know it?
Was the Obama FBI involved? The media spent months 24/7 talking about how to identify school shooters before they act and here weve caught a group red handed training kids to kill and we hardly hear a word about it. Were these Muslim connected to the Muslim brotherhood?
So if a person is set up in a trap by the FBI, and the FBI operator does not disclose he is with the FBI, they can lie to you, but you can’t lie to them even when no underlying law was broken, and you still serve jail time? This sounds Stasi-esque.
Papadopoulos was setup by FBI/DOJ hacks. Everyone knows it, including Mueller. This is a witch hunt.
How about prison for Hillary. The one that everyone committed these crimes for.
Mueller takes himself quite seriously.
“Papadopoulos was setup by FBI/DOJ hacks. Everyone knows it, including Mueller. This is a witch hunt.”
A real judge would throw it out.
Recycle the rope
Don’t take it. With all the new stuff coming out about Strzock and Ohr I would recant and ask for full discovery
The cabal led by Clapper , Brennan, and Mueller all of a sudden want to go lenient.....wonder why
Signed by none other than Jeannie Rhee who obviously wants this to go away.
0-6 months imprisonment
$9500 fine.
Works for me
