Ex-Trump aide Papadopoulos must report to prison for two-week term, judge rules


Former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos must report to prison on Monday as scheduled, a judge ruled Sunday, denying his bid to delay his term until an appeals court rules in a separate lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's appointment. Papadopoulos was sentenced in September to 14 days in prison for lying to the FBI during Mueller’s investigation. Before his sentencing, the former adviser said he was “deeply embarrassed and ashamed.”“My entire life has been turned upside down. Mueller’s team had pushed for a six-month prison sentence, while Papadopoulos’ defense had requested probation. Meanwhile, former Infowars Washington Bureau Chief Jerome Corsi said in a livestream earlier this month that he expects to be indicted soon for perjury in the Mueller probe, which has already produced dozens of indictments since it began in May 2017.
