That being said, I’ve read some parts of it and it seems to be a huge bs. As if Russia was planing 5 years ago that Trump would be the US president…

It’s Buzzfeed, it’s not a shocker. Also, the fact that it’s riddled with errors and many of the allegations are turning out to be provably untrue (such as Trump’s lawyer meeting with People in Prague when he has come out in said not only is that not true, he has literally never been to Prague in his life).

Trump saying he has literally never been to Prague is the very definition of literally unprovable. Trump is as legitimate a source as Buzzfeed is, which is to say “not at all.”

Also, Buzzfeed being Buzzfeed doesn’t mean that there’s nothing to see here.

It wasn’t Trump, but a member of his council. It’s absurd to claim it’s unprovable. I don’t know how often you travel overseas but using a one’s passport and plane travel records it would be easy to prove where one has been at a specific point in time, especially if you can prove you were actually in the United States (as that dude is claiming) at the exact same time it’s alleged you were in Prague (which he is claiming he has never been to in his life).

Can he prove he was in the US?

While Cohen’s passport didn’t seem to contain stamps from the Czech Republic, he wouldn’t necessarily need to have one if he visited the country. The Czech Republic is part of the Schengen Area, a group of 26 European countries that have a border agreement. Visitors must present a passport when they first enter the area, but they do not necessarily need to show the document when they travel between countries within the zone. Based on the passport pages he showed to Yahoo News, Cohen made multiple visits to Schengen countries, from which he could have traveled on to the Czech Republic, including a trip to Paris last year.

In fact, Sean Spicer just essentially said in the press conference that they don’t even know where he was.

http://www.npr.org/2017/01/11/509137239/watch-live-trump-holds-first-press-conference-as-president-elect

Michael Cohen, who is said to have visited Prague in August and September, did not leave or enter the United States during this time. We asked him to produce his passport to confirm his whereabouts on the dates in question. And there was no doubt that he was not in Prague.

In fact, Mr. Cohen has ever been in Prague. A new report actually suggests that Michael Cohen was at the University of Southern California with his son at a baseball game. One report now suggested apparently it is another Michael Cohen:.

Did you read what you quoted? In very last paragraph they looked at his passport during the time he was alleged to be in Prague, and he was not out of the country.

???

Based on the passport pages he showed to Yahoo News, Cohen made multiple visits to Schengen countries, from which he could have traveled on to the Czech Republic, including a trip to Paris last year.

“So is Michael telling the truth? Has he ever been to Prague?” Trump asked, according to Cohen.

Bannon informed Trump that the passport didn’t show travel to the Czech Republic, Cohen said. After Bannon looked at the document, Cohen said Trump’s chief of staff, Reince Priebus, press secretary Sean Spicer and special counselor Kellyanne Conway all checked out the passport. He also showed it to Vice President-elect Mike Pence.

“He didn’t spend two seconds looking at it. He was like, ‘I believe you, Mike,’” Cohen said of Pence.

Where does it say “they looked at his passport during the time he was alleged to be in Prague, and he was not out of the country?” It says it didn’t show travel to the CR…and even if they said what you are saying, I can’t imagine any reason that Trump, Bannon, Priebus, Spicer and Conway would all lie. They’re all upstanding honest truthful people with no motivation to lie whatsoever.

This is their response to the intelligence report:

Michael Cohen, who is said to have visited Prague in August and September, did not leave or enter the United States during this time. We asked him to produce his passport to confirm his whereabouts on the dates in question. And there was no doubt that he was not in Prague.

When you travel overseas you get your passport stamped as you exit and enter the United States. When you’re an American - it is exceedingly easy to prove where and when one has been in terms of being in the country or not being in the country during a specific window of time. The report is alleging he was in Prague during a specific time period and his he is claiming his passport shows that he was not out of the country during that time. If you’re within the United States it is extremely difficult to also be in Prague - you’d need very very long arms. All that nonsense about the Shengen Zone is irrelevant - that only applies if you’re in EU territory, as is the fact that a different Michael Cohen might have been at a particular baseball game in LA (seeing as the important fact wasn’t that he was at a specific baseball game in this country, but merely somewhere in this country during that time.)

  1. Aside from this, the people who are claiming anything about this are completely untrustworthy and have every reason to lie about it.

lol

???

I’ve never seen Kellyanne Conway (just to pick one of them) say anything approaching the truth.

For sure, but they could just as easily say the same about Buzzfeed.

I already said Buzzfeed is as trustworthy as Trump or any Trump lackey. There is plenty here without relying on Buzzfeed.

Alright, that’s fair. I haven’t been following the story too closely, and I’ve only been half-paying attention to the conversation in this thread.

Buzzfeed is running with a document that has been around for a while, it’s just that no one has reported on it.

And of course McCain would hand it over the authorities, then the intelligence agencies would go through the process of vetting its legitimacy. From the NBC report:

According to the senior official, the two-page summary about the unsubstantiated material made available to the briefers was to provide context, should they need it, to draw the distinction for Trump between analyzed intelligence and unvetted “disinformation.”

Right, everyone important has already seen this, and were going to sit on it until it was proven. BuzzFeed gets a hold of it and makes the decision that we should REALLY make sure it’s untrue by publishing it. Trump was briefed it was coming.

Well, I guess that classified documents aren’t supposed to get leaked, are they ? That being said, I’ve read some parts of it and it seems to be a huge bs. As if Russia was planing 5 years ago that Trump would be the US president…

This isn’t supposed to show that Russia planned for him to win the Precidency, just that Russia (supposedly) has a lot of dirt on Trump and he owes them a lot of money, which would make people concerned that he can be controlled by them.

Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to “leak” into the public. One last shot at me.Are we living in Nazi Germany?

Yes, intelligence agencies should actively stop the press from publishing things.

Wait, what?

Because i like making you suffer

I laughed, but then I read his last post, and I think you aren’t making him suffer enough.

Well i was going to release ESB:R next month, but i think i will leave that until 2020 just to make him suffer more after his comment 😉

Now everyone will think it is coming next month.

Well, the rules are going be enforced as interpreted by Jay and the mods.

I don’t think it’s as simple as that warb but I wish it were.

I believe it’s 100% as simple as that because Jay pays the bills around here.

ahh, but Fo is making a passive aggressive comment suggesting that the enforcement is not fair.

That can’t be right, because his passive aggressive comments go in another thread.
