JORDAN, MEADOWS REFER COHEN TO AG BARR FOR ALLEGED PERJURY AT OVERSIGHT HEARING
Daily Caller ^ | 02/28/19

Posted on 02/28/2019 1:09:57 PM PST by Liberty7732

Republican Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Mark Meadows of North Carolina referred Michael Cohen to the Attorney General William Barr on Friday, alleging that the president’s former attorney perjured himself in the course of giving testimony at Thursday’s hearing before the House Oversight Committee.

“Mr. Cohen’s testimony before the Committee on Oversight and Reform on February 27, 2019, was a spectacular and brazen attempt to knowingly and willfully testify falsely and fictitiously to numerous material facts,” the letter to Barr from Jordan and Meadows states.

“His testimony included intentionally false statements designed to make himself look better on a national stage. Mr. Cohen’s prior conviction for lying to Congress merits a heightened suspicion that he has yet again testified falsely before Congress,” the letter concludes.

The letter details six distinct points supporting an investigation into whether Cohen’s testimony Wednesday before the committee was truthful.

Lanny Davis had a fool for a client.

His other client took the “I don’t recall route”, but this clown remembered a lot of stuff that just wasn’t so. I hope they add 20 years to his sentence. Then maybe he’ll remember to not remember.

While we appreciate the gesture, where were the AG referrals when the Republican’s controlled the committee?

Cohen is scheduled to report to jail for a three-year sentence for tax evasion, bank fraud, and lying to Congress on May 6.

Cohen was facing 70+ years (life) in prison. Do you think a reduced sentence of 3 years and offers of multi-million dollar book and movie contracts might have encouraged Cohen to lie once again? In fact, IMO, he has even stronger reasons to lie now, than he did in previous testimonies.

This will be an early test if AG Barr will do anything against the Mueller/Deep State cabal.

This should give us a good chance to see how Barr is going to view his job.

Is this the same Cohen who once said he would take a bullet to protect Mr. Trump?

Lanny wasn’t working for Cohen. Hillary has him under permanent retainer.
