BuzzFeed News reporter Anthony Cormier told Brian Stelter on CNN that he’s confident in reporting that President Trump told Michael Cohen to lie to Congress, despite the challenge from special counsel Robert Mueller’s office that claimed the story was inaccurate.
CORMIER: “This story is accurate.”
STELTER: “What if the sources are just wrong?
CORMIER: “They’re not.”
STELTER: “Not intentionally. Not trying to hurt you, but what if they’re wrong?”
CORMIER: “They’re not. They’re not. I’m confident.”
Meanwhile, Marcy Wheeler suggests the special counsel issued his unprecedented statement in an attempt to preserve Cohen’s ability to testify at trial.
