any of you desperados gotta quote for me?

WASHINGTON – In a rare public statement, special counsel Robert Mueller's office on Friday disputed a blockbuster report from BuzzFeed News that alleged President Donald Trump directed his former attorney, Michael Cohen, to lie in his testimony before Congress.

Despite worldwide coverage and intense interest, Mueller's office has stayed mostly quiet on reports regarding the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. But on Friday, Mueller's office took the rare step of calling BuzzFeed's story "not accurate."

thanks for tracking that down, makes my point beautifully

"BuzzFeed’s description of specific statements to the Special Counsel’s Office, and characterization of documents and testimony obtained by this office, regarding Michael Cohen’s Congressional testimony are not accurate

yup, specific details (i.e. time, place, exact wording, attribution etc) are inaccurate, no mention of whether Trump instructed Cohen to lie to Congress, or not

but keep that hope alive, maybe a miracle's on its way!

Treason

Bribery

think about it

Mueller's spokesman said the story was inaccurate, not false. If it were, I am sure he is familiar with the word, False. He did not use it.
