The President reacted angrily Sunday to the New York Times’ report that White House counsel Don McGahn has cooperated “extensively” with special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe.
The Times stood behind its reporting in a tweet:
The New York Times stands behind the reporting of our Pulitzer-Prize winning reporters @nytmike and @maggieNYT.

The Grey Lady vs. The Great Trumpkin?
I’ll stick with the lady, thank you…
Too bad its another Maggie puff piece.
Truly, this blazing hot story deserves the shocking photograph that accompanies it. I hope no small children were reading about politics this morning.
Whenever I read a story like this -which really isn’t new news - I wonder who the sources were and why now? Why is the focus of the article entirely on Obstruction without a single mention of Conspiracy and other issues Trump faces. After all, McGahn was also the Trump campaign counsel in the run up to the election. He must know a lot about what occurred during that time and surely the Mueller team asked about that.
Well, D-UH. Of course the New York Times has more credibility over Trump’s lie-filled Tweets.
