The former Trump adviser convicted of lying to the FBI issued a challenge to former FBI Director James Comey on Saturday.

"If Jim Comey agrees to answer the below questions in a public testimony, I will agree to testify to the senate without immunity," George Papadopoulos said on Twitter.

Papadopoulos laid out several subjects related to the investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, including controversial Maltese professor Joseph Mifsud, who allegedly told Papadopoulos the Russians had thousands of Hillary Clinton's emails. Papadopoulous has said he believes British and Australian intelligence agencies helped set him up.



If Jim Comey wants to testify in public and tell America who/why in Trump’s advisory board was under FISA; who Joseph Mifsud is; if the FBI had any role in my dealings with Charles Tawil; and explain the UK and Australia’s surveillance role. That would be good for the country. — George Papadopoulos (@GeorgePapa19) November 24, 2018



Comey confirmed Thursday on Twitter he has been subpoenaed by House Republicans but said he wants to keep his testimony public. Comey and former Attorney General Loretta Lynch were subpoenaed earlier this week to come before the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees as part of the investigation into potential bias within the FBI and the Justice Department during investigations into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Russia's 2016 presidential election interference.

Papadopoulos, who was sentenced to two weeks in prison, has requested immunity from the Senate Intelligence Committee for his testimony. Papadopoulos voluntarily testified without immunity before the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees in October.
