WASHINGTON--
The Justice Department special counsel has evidence that Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and confidant, Michael Cohen, secretly made a late-summer trip to Prague during the 2016 presidential campaign, according to two sources familiar with the matter.
Confirmation of the trip would lend credence to a retired British spy’s report that Cohen strategized there with a powerful Kremlin figure about Russian meddling in the U.S. election.
It would also be one of the most significant developments thus far in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of whether the Trump campaign and the Kremlin worked together to help Trump win the White House. Undercutting Trump’s repeated pronouncements that “there is no evidence of collusion,” it also could ratchet up the stakes if the president tries, as he has intimated he might for months, to order Mueller’s firing.

The Gadfly will let that sink in to your brains for a moment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .ok.
Cohen has been under grand jury investigation for many months according to recent credible reports. And do you know what that implies dear readers?
It means - that President Donald Trump's personal attorney, his go-to "fixer" as Drumpf loyalists fondly and smugly refer to him, has been under investigation, for months, and it is not an exaggeration to contend that he has been under investigation by pretty much the Super Heroes/Justice League of criminal prosecution.
Robert Mueller's team of investigators are the quintessential Men in Black - they are the guys with the impeccably starched white shirts, the standard issue dark suits, and the expertly buffed Florsheims. These are the guys who do not fuck around and play penny ante legal and mind games with those whom they are investigating. These guys have been getting down to business every second of every day since their feet hit the floor upon receiving their investigatory mandate from the DOJ.
Michael Cohen is looking at the likelihood of spending a good portion of his remaining life on this earth rotting in a prison cell, and that is the stark reality of this situation. For you see folks, here's the thing . . . Mueller's investigators struck incriminating evidence gold, when they surprise raided Cohen last week and confiscated all of his computers, phones and files. In a no-doubt harrowing blink of an eye, Michael Cohen became quite cognizant of the fact that the Men in Black now know everything that he, Michale Cohen himself knows.
And Michael Cohen knows a whole lot about Donald John Trump - as in 10 years of "fixing" and cleaning up the illicit wreckage that his singular, morally rudderless client, Mr. Trump, has embroiled himself in.
The ignominious end of the tainted presidency of Donald John Trump is all but a foregone conclusion at this point dear readers. All that remains to be see is to what measure of damage befalls the nation should Drumpf be desperate enough to refuse to go quietly in to the asterisked pages of history when his time is up.
Unfortunately, it is probably beyond hope to think Donald Trump might base his his decision on what is best for America and the American people. Donald Trump cares about nobody but himself and so it is probably best to prepare for the worst case scenario.
The Gadfly is ready if Mr. Trump chooses to act unwisely. Are you?
