Shortly after Roger Stone associate Jerome Corsi went on MSNBC and claimed he could not accept a plea deal because he could not tell a lie,  Watergate Prosecutor Nick Akerman reacted to Corsi’s claims.

Suffice to say, he didn’t buy it — at all.

“Let me start off with my legal opinion,” Ackerman said. “Liar, liar, pants on fire.”

He added: “This guy is not telling the truth.”

Akerman then noted that when you try and determine if someone is telling the truth you don’t leave your “common sense at the door post. ”

“What he says about suddenly coming up with the exact timing for the Podesta e-mails to come out doesn’t ring true,” he continued on. “But what I think is the real killer here that really puts the lie to him is that later on between January 13, 2017 and March 1, 2017, he deleted those e-mails — the very e-mails that you were questioning him about that had to do with these contacts with Julian Assange.”

He then added people simply don’t forget that they are asked to make contact with Assange or that they were called to testify in front of a Senate hearing and wound up destroying the email evidence in the middle of the whole thing which is what Corsi wants folks to believe he did.
