Donald Trump’s lawyer accused Hillary Clinton of murdering an ambassador and selling uranium to Russia through her “faux charity” in a post to Twitter Tuesday morning.

Michael Cohen, executive vice president of the Trump Organization and special counsel to the Manhattan billionaire, tweeted that a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows Trump leading Clinton on the issue of national security and on the question of who voters find more “honest and straightforward.” Along with his message, Cohen attached a meme featuring a photo of Clinton that he wrote “says it all.”


“I presided over $6 billion lost at the State Department, sold uranium to the Russians through my faux charity, illegally deleted public records and murdered an ambassador,” the text reads above an image of Clinton with her hands outstretched. “Elect Me!”



Cohen’s meme does not make reference to a specific instance involving an ambassador, but the tweet comes on the same day that Republicans from the House Select Committee on Benghazi release their report detailing what it says are the failings of the Obama administration and Clinton's State Department in particular in handling the 2012 attacks.
