WaPo’s Miller: ‘W.H. Is Playing Word Games To Try to Blunt the Impact’ of Our Story

‘Why did the national Security Council feel it was necessary to contact the CIA director to give them a head’s up on what Trump told the Russians’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

BURNETT: "So Greg, let me just go to you first, okay, because I want to give you a chance. I want to make it clear. He’s saying your story is false. But I want to be loud and clear. Your story does not say sources and methods were disclosed. It says a specific plot was discussed. Am I correct?"
MILLER: "I think that’s correct. The White House is playing word games to try to blunt the impact of this story, nor do any of the White House officials who are denouncing this story, nor have any of them offer explanation that that was above board and not problematic, why did the national Security Council feel it was necessary to contact the CIA director to give them a head’s up on what trump told the Russians."
BURNETT: "You stand by the story, every word of it. He says it’s false, you say no."
MILLER: "Absolutely."
