Yesterday, April 27, there was a pre-trial hearing in the Michael Sussmann case relating to various evidentiary issues.
For the uninitiated, Sussmann a former Perkins Coie partner, and former attorney for the DNC/Clinton Campaign, has been charged by Special Counsel John Durham with providing false statements to then-FBI General Counsel James Baker in the fall of 2016.
The Special Counseltold the court that while Joffe and Sussmann pushed the Alfa Bank/Yotaphone hoax to the CIA in February 2017, this false information was also pushed "To another branch of government, to the legislative branch" at a later time.
The Special Counsel's statement reminds us of this letter we discussed from Rodney Joffe's attorney to the attorneys for Michael Sussmann, stating the Yota phone-related allegations percolated "Through various branches of the government and around the private sector after that date, in various forms."
Sussmann's lawyer informed the court that the Special Counsel stated on April 26 that Steele is "Out of the country and isn't likely to be a witness."
Steele is not cooperating with the Special Counsel.
