Papadopoulos was also sentenced to 13 months supervised release, 200 hours community service and a $9,500 fine. Before his sentencing, the former adviser said he was “deeply embarrassed and ashamed.”
“My entire life has been turned upside down, I hope to have a second chance to redeem myself,” he said. Mueller’s team had pushed for a six-month prison sentence, while Papadopoulos’ defense had requested probation.
Trump reacted:
14 days for $28 MILLION – $2 MILLION a day, No Collusion. A great day for America!

You should also know that Papadopoulos spoke to Jake Tapper.

Let me get this straight
The entire Trump-Russia investigation began because of George Papadopoulos, but it has now been proven that he did not collude with Russia
Time for Mueller to pack it up!

George Papadopoulos has been sentenced:
1. 14 days in prison
2. 1 year of supervised release— Yashar Ali 🐘 (@yashar) September 7, 2018
Take all of that as you will.
But Trump is right. Still no collusion.
The judge announced that no Russia collusion was found in the George Papadopoulos case
I’m sure that means the entire media left will now apologize for spreading conspiracy theories about him and his family
I’ll wait
