George Papadopoulos (far right) and Sam Clovis (second from right) Although Clovis claimed to have no recollection of attending the TAG 483 summit, Papadopoulos remembered discussing Russia and a foreign policy 484 trip with Clovis and Phares during the event. Papadopoulos’s recollection is consistent with emails sent before and after the TAG summit. The pre-summit messages included a July 11, 2016 email in which Phares suggested meeting 485 Papadopoulos the day after the summit to chat, and a July 12 message in the same chain in which Phares advised Papadopoulos that other summit attendees 486 “are very nervous about Russia. So be aware.” Ten days after the summit, Papadopoulos sent an email to Mifsud listing Phares and Clovis as other 487 “participants” in a potential meeting at the London Academy of Diplomacy. Finally, Papadopoulos’s recollection is also consistent with handwritten 488 notes from a journal that he kept at the time. Those notes, which are reprinted in part below, appear to refer to potential September 2016 meetings in London with representatives of the “office of Putin,” and suggest that Phares, Clovis, and Papadopoulos (“Walid/Sam me”) would attend without the official 489 backing of the Campaign (“no official letter/no message from Trump”).
