More and More Russiagate

Got a late start on it this morning thanks to breakfast out, and a stop at the gym. First, things not directly related to Michael Cohen managed to get through the noise:

The Peacock claims to know that Trump Org's Weisselberg not cooperating with feds, sources say. At this point, why would anyone cooperate with the Feds if they had a reasonable option not to?

"Jason Beale" at Da Federalist, Andrew McCabe’s Media Tour Confirmed The FBI Had No Basis For Investigating Trump, except that they really hated him.

The Resistance is Everything They Accuse Trump of Being, by Jim Daws at the American Thinker. This is generally true of the left. If they accuse you of something, you can be pretty sure they're practicing it. That's how they know it works.

Conrad Black at NR, G-Men Out of Control or also titled Could U.S. Face Regime Change In Trump Era?
American democracy is insuperably strong in the hearts of the people and in 230 years of triumphant survival through a vehement and contentious national history. But the recent fantastic cascade of professions of righteous untouchability from Comey and McCabe and Brennan and Clapper shows that there is no institutional tradition of respect for and deference to the constitutional integrity of the system in the main police and intelligence agencies. Though fired for dishonesty and sent for grand-jury evaluation as a criminal lying to Congress and out of control, Andrew McCabe generally enjoys the support of the Trump-hating media in his book tour, celebrating a lawless disregard for the supremacy of the people under the Constitution. He feared that Trump might be a “Russian asset,” and accordingly set a special counsel with practically unlimited powers, who engaged a fervently partisan Democratic staff, upon him.
Da Caller, Judge Orders Release Of Christopher Steele Deposition
A federal judge in Florida on Thursday ordered the release of depositions given by former British spy Christopher Steele and a longtime associate of late Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain in a lawsuit filed against BuzzFeed regarding Steele’s anti-Trump dossier.

U.S. District Court Judge Ursula Ungaro overruled requests by Steele and David Kramer, the former McCain associate, to keep depositions they gave in the BuzzFeed lawsuit under seal. Ungaro dismissed a lawsuit filed against BuzzFeed on Dec. 19, 2018, by Aleksej Gubarev, a Russian businessman accused in the dossier of using his companies to hack into DNC computers.

The depositions by Steele and Kramer, a former Department of State official, are likely to shed light on how the dossier was compiled and disseminated to U.S. government officials and the press. Ungaro ordered the documents’ release for March 14.

Kramer, a former State Department official, provided the dossier to a BuzzFeed reporter Dec. 28, 2016, several weeks after meeting with Steele in London.
And now, just a few of countless articles on Cohen. Hear what you want to hear, and disregard the rest.
