Bloomberg’s Murphy: What Panic in the Admin Led Them To Lie to the FBI About Russia Contacts?

RUSH EXCERPT:
MURPHY: "Well, look, there are several things that are baffling about this. Anybody knows that when you go in to be investigated by the FBI, you go to have a conversation with them, the first thing they tell you is it’s a felony offense if you lie in this interview. And now we have two people connected with the administration who seem to have done just that. Look, I think Dan was correct earlier in looking at the analysis on this. There’s plenty of evidence to show that there were contacts, that there was outreach, after the victory with Russian officials. But the issue here is not going to be a Logan Act prosecution, it’s not going to be looking at that, it is squarely going to be on an obstruction case. And that is the issue I think they’re going to be dialing in on is, after these contacts were revealed, whether it was through the press or otherwise, what was done? What panic in certain level of the administration may have led them to be lie or be disingenuous about the extent of those contacts? And how far up it leads? It is very serious in bolstering that case."
