How the corrupt Special Counsel (Mueller) is prosecuting George Papadopoulos for giving statements that turned out to be true.
Here's what George said: Joseph Mifsud was "talking up connections" and "BS'ing."
The indictment called that a false statement.

Mueller's problem: the statement of @GeorgePapa19 proved to be true.
As the indictment explains, the Russian woman set forth by Mifsud "was not in fact a relative of President Putin."
And they had no access to the Russian Ambassador.

Now go to the Special Counsel's sentencing memo: there's nothing about whether @GeorgePapa19 was correct. Instead, they focus on his state of mind.
In Mueller's world, it's a crime to tell the truth if you think the truth is a lie.

Speaking of lies (and @ProfMJCleveland has covered some of this) - how about this doozy: @GeorgePapa19 undermined the FBI's ability to question or "potentially detain" Mifsud.
Mifsud was in the US for a State Dept-funded event from 2/8/17 to 2/11/17.
The FBI questioned him on the same day he flew out (2/11/17).
The FBI chose not to do the interview on 2/8/17 and corroborate Mifsud's claims with @GeorgePapa19

Mueller also claimed that GP "hindered the govt's ability to discovery who else may have known" about Russians having dirt on HRC.
The problem is that fn.2 of the Gov't Memo reveals the FBI knew of the "dirt" on HRC before they interviewed Mifsud.

Finally, something else troubling. FBI Agents asked 4 different questions in a row to Papadopoulos. (See pic.)
He responded with a "No."
Special Counsel calls that a "false claim." But it was a true statement to the 4th question.
