Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s office on Friday denied an explosive report by BuzzFeed News that his investigators had gathered evidence showing President Trump directed his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress about a prospective business deal in Moscow.
“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,” said Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller.
The statement was remarkable on several levels — first, the special counsel’s office speaks exceedingly rarely, and second, the statement seemed to drive a stake through a sensational allegation that Democratic lawmakers suggested earlier in the day could spell the end of the Trump presidency.

It's looking that way.
As if that would make any difference to Herr Mueller. It never has previously in his career.
The long, corrupt record of Herr Mueller.

“Acting AG caught whiff. Dollars to donuts”
And the mueller coup cares what Whitaker thinks because why?
Mueller is backed by the corrupt state, both parties, corrupt courts and fakestream media(maybe not buzzfeed anymore ;))
WaPo is probably mad they didn’t get to disseminate the lie first.
Barr is Herr Mueller’s good buddy. He won’t stop Herr Mueller from sayign whatever he wants to say. He’s already testified to that.
Dudge
Levin says Mueller is afraid of a leak investigation.
No he won’t stop him but it will make sure any report is issued will be checked and double checked and triple checked and some of the innuendo will be removed.
Yeah, I know he and Barr are friends and I think that friendship just might make Mueller be a whole lot more careful.
As Mark Levin said, the only possible source of the leak to BuzzFeed is Mueller’s office. It’s happened before. So they REALLY don’t want an investigation of how BuzzFeed got the fake story.
WaPo circling to pick at the carcass of BuzzFeed. WaPo is no better, just more selective.
So the unicorn was not pooping skittles. Are you progressives full yet ?
I suspect it was a canary trap to catch a suspected leaker. Looks like they got him.
Watch the last 5 minutes of Hannity last night to see what Joe DeGenova thinks. Joe has worked with the new AG, Bill Barr for over three decades. Joe says that even though Barr and Mueller are lifelong friends, Barr would fire Mueller if he would let a lie like this one stand.
I saw that. I think Mark Levin’s explanation is more likely.
The leak came form Herr Mueller’s office adn he doesn’t wnat a leak investigation to undo his effort to get President Trump.
Barr wouldn’t touch hm.
