Major Garrett, Chief White House Correspondent for CBS News, implied White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders faces legal jeopardy for statements she has made to the press.

Sarah Sanders: “No, but I would always advise against giving false information. And as a person of human decency I do my best to give correct information…”
Garrett: (Talking over Sanders) “But the point of Jonathan’s question before, when you say before that you gave the best information you had at the time…”
Sanders: (Interjecting) “And I continue to do that today.”
Garrett: “But it turns out not to be correct or accurate are you then trying to limit the liability that you may encounter by not dealing with any of those questions now and pushing it all off because you says it’s all ongoing litigation?”
Sanders, “Again, I’m giving the best information I have. Some information…”
