Buzzfeed report picked up by the rest of the media including CNN without any fact checking

[b]is a terrific example of trial by slander. Fortunately Mueller slammed buzzfeed. Apparently at least he believes in due process. Look it up it’s in the CONSTITUTION[/b]

Didn't this whole thing look like a setup? If I didn't know better I would think someone wanted Buzzfeed to look bad, but I can't imagine who that would be.

CNN for ratings reasons? @eli1601

I heard another explanation. That Mueller's team issued the statement because they don't want to look like they're leaking. That would bring about another leak investigation.

I suspect some details are wrong in the story.

But why would Cohen give false testimony to Congress about the Moscow project in the first place? 🤔

After all, [i]he[/i] was in no legal jeopardy of he had told the truth about the timing of it.

Why would Cohen be in trouble if he had told Congress the truth, that Trump was still considering the Moscow tower project nearly right up to the 2016 Republican convention?

The experts are saying that Mueller’s statement meant that the buzzfeed report was more than “slightly inaccurate” inasmuch as it’s the first thing Mueller has said in a year. @beckyromero

But that has nothing to do with what Cohen said and his plea deal.

Why would Cohen have lied to Congress about the Moscow hotel project in the first place?

There are tons of whys about Cohens entire life. @beckyromero

But not all involve Trump and the Russians.
