CNN: Fmr. Trump Campaign Aide Michael Caputo Interviewed by Mueller
RUSH EXCERPT:
RAJU: "Michael Caputo, former Trump campaign adviser did meet with the special counsel Robert Mueller’s team today, this after he has met with other panels that have been investigating the Russia matter. Caputo himself has been a longtime friend and associate of Roger stone. Stone is someone who’s been very close to the president over several decades. And stone himself has come under a lot of scrutiny as part of this investigation, because of contacts that he had with an intermediary, with Wikileaks ... Undoubtedly, those are issues that this investigation is looking into. Something that perhaps Michael Caputo was asked about, if he had any knowledge of this, as well. Caputo told me that he believed it was a difficult but fair proceeding, and when he met with the special counsel’s team. Caputo has denied doing anything wrong, saying there’s absolutely no evidence whatsoever of collusion between the trump campaign and Russia. And when he met with the Senate intelligence committee yesterday, he made that abundantly clear. He said this has essentially been wrapped up, people who have nothing to do with this issue and forced legal bills to skyrocket, including his own, to the tune of $125,000, forcing him to make decisions that could really implicate his family, and left the Senate intelligence committee saying, excuse me my language, this is from his closing statement which he released, he said, goddamn you to hell, what he said to the Senate intelligence committee staff. Unclear if he said that to Robert Mueller’s team today. But he describe that as fair, but also said it was difficult, too, wolf."
