COMMENT ON A REVIEW OF A STEPHEN F COHEN BOOK IN CONSORTIUM NEWS
‘Russia-gate as Count Dracula
‘Ann Garrison reviews Stephen F. Cohen’s book, “War with Russia? From Putin & Ukraine to Trump & Russiagate.”’
America’s establishment, with all this Russia-gate nonsense, has achieved still another end.
It has lost the confidence of tens of millions of people and a number of leaders because the deceit here is just so clear to unbiased people.
Really, when something smells as bad as this has smelled, and you still push it as truth, you not only lose credibility with thinking people, you truly do begin to look asinine.
The following contains a couple of interesting references to former NSA technical expert Bill Binney and the flimsy notion, still maintained by many Democrats, of Russian hacking for WikiLeaks:

Response to a comment citing The Guardian:
The Guardian has become a pathetic newspaper.
It wears its heavy bias like a big ugly cheap fur coat.
In its hard news and views, The Guardian, despite its insistence on being regarded as progressive, is about as Tory as Theresa May. It is a constant defender of all the interests of American empire. Russophobia has been one of its staples for years.
I could cite many instances, but my favorite is found below, where I have critiqued a ridiculous set of Russia-hating articles some time ago.
