'I have NEVER been there!' Trump's attorney Michael Cohen hits back at claims Robert Mueller 'has evidence he visited Prague in 2016' to meet a Putin ally
Cohen hit back at McClatchy report, saying he was in LA with his son, not Prague
New report claims Special Counsel has evidence of Cohen visit to Prague
Steele dossier claimed he met with a close Putin ally there in late summer 2016
Cohen has vociferously denied the trip and even produced his passport
Michael Cohen, the embattled personal attorney of Donald Trump, has denied fresh reports that Special Counsel Robert Mueller obtained evidence he visited Prague in 2016.
'No matter how many times or ways they write it, I have never been to Prague. I was in LA with my son. Proven!' Cohen wrote in a withering tweet on Saturday.
'Bad reporting, bad information and bad story by same reporter Peter Stone,' he wrote.
Cohen was referring to a McClatchy report on Friday, which cited two sources claiming that Mueller's investigators traced evidence that Cohen entered the Czech Republic through Germany in August or September of 2016.
British ex-spy Christopher Steele's dossier claimed the purpose of the trip was to meet with a prominent ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Konstantin Kosachev, but it is not clear whether Mueller has evidence of such a meeting.

Mueller: “Yes, yes. You have definitive proof you have never been to Prague. So my only question of you, Mr. Cohen, is why you traveled to Prague? Was it to meet Vlad Putin, to arrange for peeing prostitutes for Donald Trump?”
The MSM knows this too, but they’ve chosen sides. This whole thing will end one of two ways. Either the Deep State and its allies drive Trump out of office or Trump destroys them. There is no middle ground. I think this shows the complete frustration and desperation on the part of the Muelhead going back over the same ground again!
Mulehead is losing his freaking mind.
You wonder how pissed TRUMP is at Sessions!
Will they get him for “lying” to Press. Mueller..I mean the FBI?
Not pissed enough to fire him, obviously.
Here’s how he “secretly” went to Prague.
He crossed into Mexico illegally where he boarded a private jet and flew non-stop to some obscure private landing strip where no passport was ever checked. Then, on his way back, he flew back into Mexico to another obscure private landing strip where he was met by professional human smugglers and whisked back across the border.

It has become obvious to a majority of the people of this country that this is a political witch hunt under color of law. Sessions needs to step in.
Rather than firing Mueller, someone should start disbarment proceedings against him. Once disbarred, he will have to resign his special prosecutor position and then he can be fired for cause and stripped of any federal pension or benefits.
If and I suspect it will be easy for Cohen to prove he was in LA, then he and others need to go after Mueller in a way that neuters him without looking to the public that it is obstruction of justice, but that it is justice being served.
He flew back over Mexico where he parachuted out to avoid Mexican customs, and walked across the southern porous border with illegal immigrants. From there he obviously had his son pick him up to provide the alibi that he was visiting him there so his Prague visit went undetected. 8>) - (I don’t really need the sarcasm tag do I?)
Agree. It's a fight for soul of America. Good vs evil. If the extreme leftist succeed in overthrowing Trump, this country is done, it's all over.
No joke.
Yes,he has damn good reason to step in.However,if he does then DJT's impeached...regardless of who controls the House.
McClatchy accomplished their mission. Rile up the right and sell advertising. They keep themselves front and center and the masses fall for it every time.
Months ago? That article is from over a year ago!
This reminds me of George Bush supposedly flying as a passenger in the SR71 spy plane to meet with some Russian or somebody in Paris when he was in California all that day. Maybe Cohen hitched a ride on the space shuttle and they have a secret landing facility in Prague, or maybe aliens (Mueller looks like one) gave him a superdupersonic flight over there.
This should be an easy one, check the records of those entering and leaving Europe. Oh wait, anyone is free to come and go these days, huh?
The burden of proof lies entirely upon anyone who asserts that THIS Michael Cohen was there in Aug. 2016, and there has not been a scrap of real evidence offered. I cannot “prove” I was not in New Delhi in Aug. 2016, but I have never been there. I’m not sure visiting the son is any “air tight alibi” since the relevant question would be “was Cohen in LA every hour of Aug. 2016?” and even then the clowns could just say “maybe it was a trip in July or Sept” etc. But it is up to those asserting it to PROVE the claim.
That's easy for you to say. Trump can fire Sessions any time he wants to, true enough. But he can't hire a new AG without a Senate confirmation. Recess appointment you say? The Senate will just take a break, like it did last August, so that it isn't technically in recess.
