Here's my report on tonight's sentencing memo from George Papadopoulos' lawyers, including the eye-catching claims they make in it about Trump, Sessions, and ... the Greek Foreign Minister. —>https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisgeidner/george-papadopoulos-special-counsel-sentencing-arguments …

(Also: Sorry for the dead link on the filing document itself earlier in the thread. I accidentally deleted it, thinking I had only posted it for myself because there was an error in the wording of the naming of the file. I re-uploaded it, though, and it's available in the story.)

Raise your hand if you know what a petard is. Bonus points if you can name who coined the phrase.

Shakespeare, methinks.

I’m surprised they didn’t mention Young George getting everyone’s coffee.

@MerriamWebster, you have anything to say about the use of ‘petard’ in this filing? George P. should get six more months just for that.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Pride goes before destruction; a haughty spirit before a fall ... Never be so greedy for glory and power that you forget to be moral. Broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many go that way.

You have no idea how to correctly use this expression. Petard - French bomb for blowing the doors open Hoisted - blows up in face George P is a kid who has had his life ruined by some jaded and entitled prosecutors. The special counsel will be hoisted by its own petard.
-
Young George was 10 years past being a kid.
-
Not when it comes to the machinations of prosecutors looking for a scalp. Twenty eight is a kid when your caught up in this type of thing. Ask yourself what (not what you think) he did that he should have a felony and prison time. This is madness to destroy people for what?
-
He's been convicted of a felony, but he "only" lied to the FBI. US has quite tough sentencing. There are much younger kids sitting in prison for a little marijuana, which, compared to involving Russia in USA's election, is small potatoes.
-
In prison or dead! Shot because they “smoked pot once.” Spare me the kid crap for this traitor.
-
I don’t think anyone should be locked up over pot unless they drove and hit someone. My goal is less authoritarian government from each side. Steven Halper was a CIA source. The US govt paid him 1 million over the past year. He is the one who supposedly was the Russian source

When was the last time you saw petard in a filing?

I'm fairly certain my preferred past tense third singular for "to hoist" is "hoist" not "hoisted."

So he needed to lie to the FBI & endanger our national security to make Trump happy.
