I'd say it's a black eye for the MSM, but their face is so badly beaten, nobody would notice.

Buzzfeed still backing this too. TDS.

Because nothing new was revealed. It's like a headline banner exclaiming that water is wet. Everyone knows the extremely liberal biased MSM has no journalistic credibility when it comes to covering Trump, or most things for that matter.

Because you haven't leaped in here to defend the left. It's pretty much expected any more.

Mueller's office only had two words to say about the BuzzFeed report.  
We'll see what Mueller's full report says.  If DoJ suppresses the report, the Democratic majority in the house will subpoena Mueller and ask him all the relevant questions. 
We already have on the record that Trump directed Cohen to violate campaign finance law. Although that violation was pretty technical. While ignorance of the law is no excuse, it's probable that Trump did not know the law, and such ignorance is a mitigating factor.
The allegation that Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress is certainly not yet proven from publicly available evidence or testimony, however, it would be completely in character given what we know about the two men already.

I'm glad to see you consider Mueller to trustworthy enough to call out the "extremely liberal biased MSM". Hopefully you'll still feel the same when his full report is released.

Thank you for making my point. The MSM giddily accepted and amplified this false reporting from BuzzFeed. Even if Mueller nails Trump to the wall (which appears to be unlikely), the journalistic ineptness was so egregiously biased that even the man, who the left has attached a cult-like status, had to step out and throw the flag.

Attaboy! That's more like it!

Actually, the statue requires specific intent so ignorance would be exculpatory not just mitigating.

Maybe it does. Most statutes do not.  Ignorantia non excusat.

Excuse me, what actions the President took violated which statute exactly?

His payments to 2 porn stars violated campaign finance law.  Michael Cohen plead guilty to violating that statute. If what he did was not technically a violation, he would not have plead guilty.

Former FEC Commissioner states he did not violate and the current one sees no reason to look into it. Even if those payments were in violation of, he wouldn’t be the first political figure and would most likely pay a fine like everyone else. We should see how Obama liked his $375,000 fine or Feinstein’s $190,000. Of course you could ad Jeb, DeBlasio and a laundry list of who’s who in politics.
