These are just quotes taken out of context to twist the words and make for a hit piece on Trump and everything he stands for.
Id be very curious to see an actual confirmation or rebuttal by Corey - but Im sure they asked and he refused to talk to them.
Also Corey Scott [of course, THIS didn't make it into the NYTimes hitpiece on Trump]:
SO1 Corey Scott, who was granted immunity to testify for the prosecution, stated in court on Thursday that he put his thumb over the wounded fighter's breathing tube after his capture in Mosul, Iraq, in 2017, resulting in the fighter's death.
Navy spokesman Brian O'Rourke confirmed to Task & Purpose that Scott testified on Thursday that he had asphyxiated the wounded ISIS fighter and was responsible for the man's death.
Scott reportedly said that he knew the fighter "was going to be turned over to the Iraqi forces and that he had previously seen those forces torture, rape and murder prisoners," NBC News reports.
"I knew he was going to die anyway," Scott said. "I wanted to save him from waking up to what had happened next."
Although Scott was a U.S. government witness, Scott was observed by Task & Purpose on Tuesday outside the courtroom talking and joking with Gallagher, who seemed friendly.
