President Trump’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, took aim at special counsel Robert Mueller in an interview airing Sunday, criticizing what he called “unethical” tactics by prosecutors in Mueller’s office after former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to Congress.

In an interview with AM 970 in New York, Giuliani accused Mueller of crossing a line by “intimidating” Trump’s allies into saying “what he believes [is] his version of the truth.”

“They obviously exerted a lot of pressure on him. Mr. Cohen unfortunately has a history of significant lies in the past,” Giuliani told host John Catsimatidis, reacting to Cohen’s admission last Thursday that he lied to Congress when he previously detailed to the body the extent of the president’s business dealings in Russia.

“This isn’t a search for the truth. It’s a witch hunt,” Giuliani continued. “This is what is wrong with these special prosecutors and independent counsels. They think they are God.”

“They seem to want to prosecute people at any cost, including the cost of ethical behavior and the rights of people.”
