BREAKING: Trump pal Emin Agalarov—who Trump was in contact with throughout the campaign—offered to set up a Trump-Putin meeting during the campaign.
Six months ago, I said we had sufficient evidence to call Emin a Kremlin agent—now we can shut that case. washingtonpost.com/politics/music…

2/ The proof I offered 6 months ago on Emin:
1. Putin twice used the Agalarovs to ferry gifts to Trump.
2. Aras Agalarov is Putin's top no-bid developer.
3. Emin set up the June '16 meet on the Kremlin's behalf.
I said then that this legally makes Emin an "agent"—this seals it.

3/ Remember: shortly after Emin offered to set up a Trump-Putin meet, Trump signed a secret letter-of-intent—his second—to build Trump Tower Moscow with a Russian partner. Cohen's January 2016 email to Putin's top aide—Peskov—confirms Trump knew his deal hinged on Putin's say-so.
