The Prague Connection

Yesterday, the McClatchy media bureau broke the story (link here) that new cellphone network evidence shows Donald Trump's former personal attorney and fixer Michael Cohen was in Prague during the time that an alleged meeting took place between Trump's campaign officials and Kremlin operatives.

This is a critical piece of information that now potentially establishes proof of an illegal criminal conspiracy by the Trump campaign to collude with the Russian government's interference with the 2016 presidential election.

The Prague connection was first alleged in the now-infamous Steele Dossier (details here) where a purported secret meeting took place between four officials of Trump's campaign met secretly in Prague with Kremlin operatives in August 2016 in order to make cash payments to hackers who would break into and release campaign emails belonging to Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, and other election officials.

This is potentially a smoking gun that would seriously and possibly fatally derail Trump's presidency, much the same way as the Watergate smoking gun ended Richard Nixon's. The million dollar question is now on the table: did the President know about the Prague meeting and when did he know?
