1) No documentary evidence for supposed directive is provided
2) BuzzFeed sources are all 100% anonymous
3) Michael Cohen is a serial liar
4) It is not illegal to do business in Russia
5) Moscow Trump Tower project never got off the ground

Jason Leopold, who reported story, is a "serial fabulist".
Columbia Journalism Review: "caught making stuff up in a 2002 Salon article, self-admittedly 'getting it completely wrong' ... & had his own memoir cancelled because of concerns over accuracy."

Buzzfeed is a joke and the gutter of anything that can be considered real journalism.I mean they were the first to publish the fake dossier , I am sure to this day you think is real.
The FBI maintained a previously unknown verification file for the Steele dossier. Congressional investigators did not previously know of its existence.
Page testified that as soon as they received the Steele dossier in September, they “set about trying to prove or disprove every single factual statement in the dossier.” Page noted that “to the best of my knowledge, we were never able to disprove any statement in it.”

You mean when Buzzfeed published the dossier and got sued for defamation and Buzzfeed won that lawsuit?

Or how about hookers in the dossier. Trump's former bodyguard testified they were offered hookers the EXACT night, at the EXACT location the dossier says hookers were present. He even said he doesn't know what happened after he left his post and went to sleep. Then Trump lied about being in Moscow that night. So you telling me Steele just got lucky and guessed there were hookers present the EXACT date at the EXACT location?
How about the Rosneft deal in the dossier?
In the intelligence report dated 18 October, 2016, Steele observes that Igor Sechin, CEO of the Russian oil company Rosneft, “was so keen to lift personal and corporate western sanctions imposed on the company, that he offered [Carter] PAGE/TRUMP’s associates the brokerage of up to a 19 per cent (privatized) stake in Rosneft in return.”
As Steele predicted, Rosneft did sell off a percentage of its ownership — 19.5 percent, almost exactly what he’d reported — in January 2017. The details of the transaction were predictably murky, with shell companies selling to other shell companies, who were owned by different shell companies, and so on to infinity

Just another lucky guess by Steele huh?
How about the DNC leaks? The dossier said Russia agreed to release DNC emails in exchange for a softer stance on Ukraine. At the Republican convention the Republican platform on Russian sanctions and Ukraine was changed. And Russia wanted Trump to ease up off and question the US/NATO commitment to balkan/E. Europe nations.

The dossier is happening right before your eyes and you're blind!

And you're right, he's been at this foolishness for almost two years now.
I first tried using reason with him. When that didnt work I started using mocking and shame. That aint working either.
He's hell bent on being a real life Wile E Coyote and the laughing stock of the forum.
You just gotta sit back and laugh at the fool.

@ MCC. Respect for removing me from ignore, I did the same to you. That being said, there will be talks of politics driving to emotions and possibly insults.
Now, to you and Game Over, Mueller himself had to, for the first time, publicy come out and call out a fake report. And Cohen having been asked to lie to congress by Trump was total BS as it turns out. So what say you?

Trump received 10 personal updates from Michael Cohen and encouraged a planned meeting with Vladimir Putin.

By MARY CLARE JALONICK
14 minutes ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Democratic chairmen of two House committees pledged Friday to investigate a report that President Donald Trump directed his personal attorney Michael Cohen to lie to Congress about negotiations over a Moscow real estate project during the 2016 election.
The report by BuzzFeed News comes as House Democrats have promised a thorough look into Trump’s ties to Russia, and as special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election and contacts with the Trump campaign.
A White House spokesman did not specifically deny the report, but Trump, in a tweet, accused Cohen, who has cooperated with Mueller, of lying.
BuzzFeed, citing two unnamed law enforcement officials, said Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress and that Cohen regularly briefed Trump and his family on the Trump Tower project in Moscow — even as Trump said he had no business dealings with Russia. BuzzFeed said Cohen told Mueller that Trump personally instructed him to lie about the timing of the project in order to obscure Trump’s involvement.
BuzzFeed said Mueller’s investigators learned about Trump’s directive “through interviews with multiple witnesses from the Trump Organization and internal company emails, text messages, and a cache of other documents.” The report says that Cohen then acknowledged Trump’s instructions when he was interviewed by the Mueller team.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said “we will do what’s necessary to find out” if the report was true. He said the allegation that Trump directed Cohen to lie in his 2017 testimony to Congress “in an effort to curtail the investigation and cover up his business dealings with Russia is among the most serious to date.”
Calling the allegations a “counterintelligence concern of the greatest magnitude,” Schiff said his committee had already been working to secure witness testimony and documents related to the Moscow Trump Tower deal.
The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jerrold Nadler of New York, said directing a subordinate to lie to Congress is a federal crime. “The HouseJudiciary Committee’s job is to get to the bottom of it, and we will do that work,” Nadler tweeted.
On Twitter Friday morning, Trump charged that Cohen is “Lying to reduce his jail time!” even though Cohen has already been sentenced.
Cohen pleaded guilty in November to lying to Congress to cover up that he was negotiating the Trump Tower project in Moscow on Trump’s behalf during the heat of his presidential campaign. The charge was brought by Mueller and was the result of Cohen’s cooperation with that probe.
He was sentenced to three years in prison for crimes that included arranging the payment of hush money to conceal his boss’ alleged sexual affairs, telling a judge that he agreed time and again to cover up Trump’s “dirty deeds” out of “blind loyalty.”
White House spokesman Hogan Gidley told Fox News Channel that taking the BuzzFeed story seriously was “absolutely ludicrous,” but he repeatedly refused to deny the central allegation that Trump directed Cohen to lie.
The Associated Press has not independently confirmed the BuzzFeed report.
An adviser to Cohen, Lanny Davis, declined to comment on the substance of the article, saying that he and Cohen wouldn’t answer questions out of respect for Mueller. Mueller is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election and contacts with the Trump campaign.
Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, scoffed at the report, saying in a statement, “If you believe Cohen I can get you a good all cash deal on the Brooklyn Bridge.”
Cohen is scheduled to testify before the House Oversight and Reform Committee Feb. 7, where he will likely be questioned about the report. It’s unclear how extensively Russia will be discussed at the hearing, though, as House Oversight and Reform Chairman Elijah Cummings, D-Md., has said there will be “parameters” so the committee doesn’t interfere with Mueller.
Though House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has discouraged any talk of impeachment in the early days of her new majority, some senior Democrats said that if the BuzzFeed report is confirmed, Trump’s actions could rise to that level.
“If the BuzzFeed story is true, President Trump must resign or be impeached,” tweeted Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro, a member of the House intelligence panel.
California Rep. Ted Lieu, a member of the Judiciary committee, tweeted that it’s time for that panel “to start holding hearings to establish a record of whether potUS committed high crimes.”
Rhode Island Rep. David Cicilline, also a member of the Judiciary committee, tweeted that if Trump directed Cohen to lie, “that is obstruction of justice. Period. Full stop.”
A Senate Democrat, Chris Murphy of Connecticut, tweeted that “we need to know this ASAP” if Mueller does have multiple sources confirming that Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress.
“Mueller shouldn’t end his inquiry, but it’s about time for him to show Congress his cards before it’s too late for us to act,” Murphy tweeted.
William Barr, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, said at his Senate confirmation hearing Tuesday that a president or anyone else who directs a witness to lie is illegally obstructing an investigation. That statement attracted attention given Barr’s expansive views of presidential powers and his belief that presidents can’t be scrutinized by prosecutors for acts the Constitution allows them to take.
