n a rare move, the office of special counsel Robert Mueller has gone on the record to dispute the bombshell BuzzFeed report from Thursday night, which claimed that the special counsel has evidence that President Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress.

Details: Peter Carr, spokesperson for Mueller's office, told BuzzFeed that their "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."

"Was somebody smoking out leakers?"

Could be.

Also, Buzzfeed needs to be investigated.

NBC still reporting this as fact. Didn’t watch just read the headline when changing channels. I haven’t watched any news since weekend before election. Feel better for it.

The owner of Buzzfeed, Ben Smith, is on CNN right now sticking to his guns.

LOL he is asking Mueller to clarify himself.

Dan Bongino opined that this may have been a canary trap, (catch a leaker), which is possible. If so, perfectly played.

The leakers are known. Now to cya’s. Watch the obits in DC and at buzzfeed.

Look who Mueller has charged so far. Manafort, a plant and dirty player, Papadapolous, another plant who pals around with Tom arnold, Page, another plant and former FBI informant, Cohen, one of the dirtiest laywers in NYC.

Flynn does not apply here of course, he sacrificed to introduce all the evidence.
