CNN’s Pamela Brown: ‘Basically Mueller Is Laying Out His Obstruction Case’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BROWN: “And what sticks out to me is that basically Mueller is laying out his obstruction case, because it’s unclear in his final report if the public will even see that. We know there’s a new attorney general nominated, but it could be fully redacted. And so you’re seeing him lay out the obstruction case, basically saying in these documents, wolf, that Cohen coordinated with others in order to — by lying to the public in order to limit the investigations into possible Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election. And while he’s not explicitly saying that coordination was with the president, certainly it was no mistake that they make reference to the fact he had contact with the White House in 2017 and 2018 and circulated his responses prior to lying to Congress with others. And so basically, they’re making the case that there could be a conspiracy that Cohen, along with others, could have been doing this. And that also ties in with the news today about why John Kelly, chief of staff, was interviewed. He was interviewed about don mcgahn and whether the president wanted don mcgahn to go up there about wanting to fire Mueller. So all of this is tying together in terms of what Mueller is focused on, beyond just the firing of James Comey, as it pertains to the obstruction case.”
