This is definitely a huge breakthrough for Mueller investigation, as Michael Cohen’s cell phone pinged off cell phone towers in Prague during the summer of 2016, which confirms that Cohen was actually in Prague and held a meeting with Russian government officials as alleged by former British spy Christopher Steele’s 2016 report.
The Christopher Steele’s 2016 report detailed the collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians, with an alleged trip by Donald Trump’s attorney, Michael Cohen to Prague to meet with the Russians in 2016.
According to Rolling Stone report, eavesdropping by an Eastern European intelligence agency picked up a call between Russians officials during which one said Cohen was in Prague. At the meeting, Cohen and Russians allegedly discussed how to hide the campaign’s close relationship with the Russian government. Both revelations have been shared with Robert Mueller, the special counsel investigating collusion between the Donald Trump presidential campaign and the Russian government.
The report by Rolling Stone also said that while the cell phone data does not conclusively prove that Cohen met with Russian operatives, it certainly does not look good for Trump, who denies any involvement in election interference and continues to call the investigation a “rigged witch hunt.” Cohen is currently cooperating with the Mueller investigation and has already pleaded guilty to lying to Congress about Trump’s attempts to build a Trump Tower Russia in addition to bank fraud, tax fraud, and violating campaign finance law.
But Cohen’s spokesman, Lanny Davis, denied Cohen made the Prague trip as recently as this week, saying Cohen “has said one million times he was never in Prague,” adding, “One million and one times. He’s never been to Prague. … He’s never been to the Czech Republic.” However, Davis is no longer a member of Cohen’s legal team and admitted he has not been briefed on what Cohen has revealed to Mueller.
We wait to hear from Trump and the White House on this new revelation that could mean the end of Trump’s Presidency…
