Sarah Sanders turned to the safe space of 'Hannity' to discuss the Mueller report's claim that she lied to reporters.
Sarah Sanders spoke with Sean Hannity about special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's findings that she had misled the press.
Mueller had zeroed in on a White House briefing on May 10, 2017, when a reporter responded to Sanders’s claim that FBI agents had lost confidence in Comey by telling her that in fact a “vast majority” of the agency still supported him. Sanders replied, “Look, we’ve heard from countless members of the FBI that say very different things.”
That network, naturally, was Fox News. And the confines of “Hannity” could hardly have been friendlier. Sanders offered a brief mea culpa, but then insisted that the only falsehood she had uttered was the word “countless.” “I think that the White House is in a great position and what we’ve been saying for last two and a half years has finally, totally been vindicated. The president is totally exonerated. No collusion, no obstruction,” she said. “It is outrageous the way that the media and Democrats have behaved.”
“Your office, according to Robert Mueller, sworn testimony, tried to get Rod Rosenstein to lie. What’s up with that?” Cooper asked.
