BOMBSHELL DUD!

Mueller team disputes BuzzFeed report claiming Trump told Cohen to lie

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office on Friday issued an extraordinary statement disputing a bombshell news report that claimed President Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie about the timing of discussions over a proposed Trump Tower project 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,” Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller’s office, said.

The statement is remarkable in that Mueller's team rarely issues statements in response to news stories. But BuzzFeed's story sparked immense interest from Democrats, who called for renewed investigations and even suggested the allegations could be a basis for impeachment proceedings.

Actually it may be that the Mueller Team actually leaked the report as a "Canary Trap" (an intel tactic).

- Canary Trap - Google it.

Could've been - Mueller is finally wrapping this up, and the conclusions are purported to be "anti-climatic", like a thud but you would think if his office was trying to finger a leaker, they would have leaked it to somebody more credible than Jason Leopold and that awful "Buzzfeed" site - that is the same outfit that published that dossier in the first place.

Nobody, even the hate Trump crowd, really believed this story because it made absolutely no sense - who orders their attorney to lie on their behalf and can "prove" it? Some in the MSM really really wanted to believe it, but PMSDNC will be PMSDNC.
