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.

MAGA.
Expected. The “leak” was fake news.
President Trump directed his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress LOL it’s the Lawyer that says that not the client ROFL
maga!
Lock those BuzzardFood bastards up! Fake news is the number one threat to national security.
This has been out there for about an hour now yet Drudge is MIA. Has he turned?
Mueller is the fourth branch of gov’t?
POS waited until ALL evening news ended to debunk!! He could have debunked immediately after buzzfake came out with that insane report!! Major destroy collusion galore between ALL MEDIAVOMITS!! YELLOW VEST TIME!!!
I cannot understand why Herr Mueller would do that.
So, I’ve lost count of the number of reports reportedly saying muledeers team is poopooing buzzfraud’s report. #5?
What if Trump planted the fake “documents” Buzzfeed ran with for this bogus story ?
Trolling at master level ..
How nice of Mueller. News and political shows have had all day to fester. The late night comics have already taped tonight’s shows. A monster storm will focus attention elsewhere until Monday. Once again, a lie goes around the world while the truth gets its boots on.
Pelosi’s revenge
Long faces on CNN...no one is smirking...so different now!
Perhaps it was an intentional fake-news leak from the WH, intended to catch the leakers and embarrass the Enemedia.
This “story” was so full of horse crap that not even Ronan Farrow, the same Ronan Farrow who posted that bogus Kavanaugh story, would touch it..tells you everything you need to know
Possibly Whittaker yanked his leash.
I dont think Trump himself could have issued a statement, he waited for Mueller to do it for him, he was NEVER worried he knew this “story” was horse poo..now he’s tweeting up a storm, retweeting people who said “Told you this was nonsense”
They don’t call them the Commie News Network for NOTHING..so full of hate they are..hate for Israel, hate for Trump, hate for Americans who voted for Trump..you think they look sad now, wait til the Mueller report comes out that shows NO collusion then you are gonna see long ass faces
