Buzzfeed being the one that put it out. >> right. this is a part where its like youre a liar and a thief and arson. im not an arson. i got you. im not an arson. lets be honest. does anyone not believe that donald trump has had michael cohen lie for him. >> cohen has said that. >> yeah. >> so the possibility that maybe donald trump didnt specifically with smoke signals and a giant airplane and a banner tell him to lie to congress in this particular instance, doesnt negate the fact that he has don...

Mueller that donald trump ordered him to lie under oath to congress about trumps plans to build a tower in moscow. buzzfeed reported mueller had corroborating evidence of cohens claim. the prosecutors office last night took the rare step of publicly disputing parts of buzz fooed reporting though we dont know which parts. trumps favorite media outlet fox news rolled out the boss favorite phrase crying fake news and hoping that questions about buzzfeeds report would somehow take down the entire mu...
