International News Title: Report Puts Michael Cohen in Prague and Trump-Russia Collusion on the Table From the beginning, the pushback against the dossier centered around one allegation. It claimed that Trump Organization lawyer Michael Cohen travelled to Prague in August to meet secretly with representatives of Russian intelligence. “The agenda,” Steele’s source alleged, “comprised questions on how deniable cash payments were to be made to hackers who had worked in Europe under Kremlin direction against the CLINTON campaign and various contingencies for covering up these operations and Moscow’s secret liaison with the TRUMP team more generally.” Cohen, Trump, and their mouthpieces all insisted Cohen had never visited Prague in his entire life. Their firm denial formed the foundation for the general skepticism with which mainstream news has treated Steele’s allegations.
In April, Peter Stone and Greg Gordon reported for McClatchy that Robert Mueller had obtained evidence that Cohen did indeed visit Prague. Today the pair have a new report with much more detail. Cohen’s phone pinged off cell- phone towers in Prague during that period, according to four sources. Also during that period, an Eastern European intelligence agency electronically surveilled a conversation in which one Russian said that Cohen was in Prague, according to two more sources. What would all this mean? Well, it would mean just about the worst possible thing for Trump. There’s no chance Cohen took such a meeting without Trump’s direction. As Cohen told George Stephanopoulos earlier this month, “nothing at the Trump organization was ever done unless it was run through Mr. Trump” — certainly an international trip to covertly meet Russian intelligence officials would qualify as a matter Trump had to approve. As the previous McClatchy report indicates, Mueller has the evidence of Cohen’s visit to Prague. Poster Comment: Witch hunt!

And NYMag.com conveniently forgets to tell you that Cohen was always looking for real estate deals for Trump without Trump knowing anything about them which is old news Herr Goebbels. Considering none of Cohens attempts to make a deal never came to fruition it doesn't look like Cohen was much of a deal maker, and consequently never got his permanent meal ticket.
#6. To: CZ82 (#1) Cohen was always looking for real estate deals for Trump without Trump knowing anything about them
Please cite your source.
#10. To: Jameson (#6) (Edited) Please cite your source. Please prove your opinion/propaganda article is true, you posted first. (Good luck with that) Oh BTW using more sources than the Google search engine will expand your horizons tremendously, you will get to see all sides of the story instead of using the plausible ignorance ploy...
Replies to Comment # 10. Please prove your opinion article is true. I understand that you are confused.
The article that was shared was "opinion" it was written from the perspective of the author who was suggesting that others might consider his position. To suggest that someone must "prove the truth" of someone's opinion is pointless, but not surprising from you...
On the other hand, YOU suggested that: "Cohen was always looking for real estate deals for Trump without Trump knowing anything about them"
you represented this NOT as your opinion, but as fact.
I called you out to support YOUR statement as fact.
Please, as I asked you before, CITE YOUR SOURCE.
