Interesting [tweet](https://twitter.com/MichaelCohen212/status/1078400493494390784) by Michael Cohen: “I hear #Prague #CzechRepublic is beautiful in the summertime. I wouldn’t know as I have never been. #Mueller knows everything!” Not sure if he is being coy about in Prague vs. near Prague (as the cell phone data apparently suggests). But the Mueller knows everything tag warms my heart. ---

One weird thing about this never been to Prague claim that has bothered me for a while and is resurfacing today is that Cohen once told David Corn that he had been to Prague once a long time ago. > [@](#): > > This week I reviewed my notes from that phone call. Here’s the direct quote from Cohen: “I haven’t been to Prague in 14 years. I was in Prague for one afternoon 14 years ago.” [link](https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/04/michael-cohen-says-hes-never-been-to-prague-he-told-me-a-different-story/) ---

Cohen has a couple more less cryptic Tweets this afternoon. He replied to two different Tweets asking him if he had ever been in the Czech Republic at any time for any reason with an unambiguous, “NO.” ---

The guy was a fixer. While I don’t want to offer a dramatic re-enactment, I can easily envision Cohen saying to somebody “… and when you’re done, use this phone to call me. But do not use it any other time, nor call me on your other phone. If you have to reach me, call… Got it?” ---

Probably he dropped his phone at the airport, it wound up on a plane to Prague, and some Czech Samaritan found it there and made a call in the hope of returning it to its owner. ---
