BuzzFeed: Sources say Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress about proposed Moscow project


(CNN)President Donald Trump personally directed his longtime former attorney Michael Cohen to lie to Congress about the Moscow Trump Tower project, two federal law enforcement officials involved in an investigation of the matter told BuzzFeed.

The law enforcement officials told BuzzFeed that Trump directed Cohen to claim negotiations to build a Trump Tower in Moscow ended months earlier than they actually did. The law enforcement sources told BuzzFeed that Cohen confirmed to special counsel Robert Mueller's team that Trump issued the order to lie to Congress.
CNN has not corroborated the BuzzFeed report.

Mueller's office learned Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress through interviews with multiple witnesses from the Trump Organization, internal company emails, text messages and other documents, Buzzfeed reports.

We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

ANYONE who does not think Trump is a LIAR at this point is totally naive.

This would seem to me to be an impeachable offense.

Trump has had several. 

His "For Whom the Bell Tolls" moment is near.
