Jerome Corsi Accuses Mueller of Being Source of BuzzFeed Report, Ups Damages in Lawsuit to $1.5 Billionby Ronn Blitzer | 9:17 am, January 22nd, 2019
Right-wing author Jerome Corsi filed an amended complaint Sunday night in his case against Special Counsel Robert Mueller and several government agencies. The new complaint keeps the allegations from the original one, and makes quite a few notable additions. Here are the highlights of whats new.
1. Corsi accuses Mueller of being the source of the same BuzzFeed report that he then refuted
Corsi, often referred to as a conspiracy theorist, put forth his take on the recent BuzzFeed report that said Muellers office had evidence that President Donald Trump directed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress. He claims in his new complaint that Mueller, whose office issued a rare statement saying BuzzFeeds report was inaccurate, was actually a source for the report. Then, Corsi claims, Mueller backtracked to cover up his own leak.
After calls for a U.S. Justice Department investigation of this leak in particular Defendant Mueller, to try to cover his illegal tracks and head off a Department investigation by the Office of Professional Responsibility and Inspector General falsely repudiated what BuzzFeed had reported were indeed leaks from the Special Counsel, the complaint says.
Law&Crime reached out to the Special Counsels Office about this and other aspects of the lawsuit, but they declined to comment.

he'd cough up a corkscrew.
