Former AG Michael Mukasey calls out Chris Cuomo for 'misleading' coverage of Mueller investigation
Fox News ^ | April 24, 2019 | Anna Hopkins

A former attorney general has slammed CNN host Chris Cuomo, accusing the host of "misleading" his audience about the Mueller investigation.

Michael B. Mukasey, a former federal judge, and President George W. Bush’s attorney general, took Cuomo on during an interview on his show Tuesday night. During a discussion about Attorney General Barr's summary of the Mueller report, Cuomo argued that Barr wrote his letter in a purposeful way to mislead the American people.

Mukasey, however, fired back that it was Cuomo and his network that proposed the report itself and the information within it in a misleading way.

"That letter came at a time when, no criticism of you, but your network were devoting days of people sitting around and talking about a report that they didn't -- whose content they didn't know, that they hadn't seen, in essence, panels of people sitting around a table inhaling their own exhaust and getting high on it," Mukasey said.

It is, but why the disclaimer? His statement is severe criticism, and fully deserved.

In his Fredo’s defense, he just reads what is put in front of him by people who are both smart and evil. Considering how stupid he is, he does a remarkable job. Of course it helps that they don’t require him to read big words.

Not misleading. Knowingly, premeditatively, and criminally fraudulent.

Coomo is a JERK, with a a capital JERK!

Coomo made no sense, Michael Mukasey kept saying “no” to almost every assertion Coomo made.

How does anyone even watch his show? Wait ... almost nobody does.

Good for Mukasey but aside from Gaetz, Jordan and 2 or 3 others where are the Republicans defending the President in the wake of the Mueller report? It’s outrageous that most of them are quietly testing which way the wind is blowing before they take a side. The McCain and Bush wings of the party can support Biden as far as I’m concerned since they have more in common with him than where I stand. I will never contribute a dime to anyone but Trump.

We are seeing Changing seas. For Decades we have all seen the Left attack attack and attack. The Limp center right cave and apologize.

Now that POTUS has shown how to talk to the talking Heads and called them out for what they are, FAKE NEWS those on the Right are slowly growing some gonads.

Twice in One Week. First Joe Digenova tears a liberal news babe limb from limb, now Mukasey calls out Guido and his network the losers they are.

With Ratings below the Food Network I am suprised they aren’t running hot phone sex, sham wow and Hair in a can Ads.
