Former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos has been sentenced to 14 days in prison -- the judge said he was prepared to sentence him to 30 days, but was impressed with Papadopoulos's show of remorse buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
George Papadopoulos donned sunglasses and did not speak to reporters as he exited the courthouse with his wife and got into a black SUV. Story: buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
George Papadopoulos was the first person to plead guilty in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, in October 2017. Nearly a year (and what feels like several lifetimes) later, he was sentenced to 14 days in prison buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…

NEW: The federal judiciary now expects to have enough money from other sources to keep the courts largely business-as-usual during the shutdown through Jan. 18 (previously it was Jan. 11) — this is the latest from the Administrative Office of the US Courts (HT @hsu_spencer)
In order to make the funds that the judiciary does have (absent a congressional appropriation) last as long as possible, "courts have been asked to delay or defer non-mission critical expenses, such as new hires, non-case related travel, and certain contracts"
DOJ, of course, is already affected by the shutdown, so most judges have been approving requests or issuing blanket orders to delay civil litigation involving the federal govt during the shutodwn (criminal cases still have to proceed as usual)

Some fireworks in court this morning as a judge criticized the lawyer representing Concord Management & Consulting in the special counsel Russian troll farm case for his language and harsh words about Mueller's office in filings — "unprofessional, inappropriate, and ineffective"
The judge told attorney Eric Dubelier that his strategy was "ineffective" and that his approach to filings — including pop culture quotes (see: assets.documentcloud.org/documents/5676…) and accusing Mueller's office basically of lawlessness — was "undermining your credibility in this courthouse"
"Knock it off," Judge Dabney Friedrich told Dubelier. This then led to a heated exchange where Dubelier said he needed to consult his client since the judge had accused of unprofessional conduct, and now there might be bias from the judge. There's no bias, the judge replied.
