| Stormy Daniels' Lawyer Makes Stuff Up About Probe Into Trump's Lawyer |
| 2018-05-08 |
| [TheFederalist] It was quite the week for lawyers outdoing themselves on television. Let’s start with the ever-present Michael Avenatti. In less than two months, Avenatti appeared on CNN 59 times. Fifty-nine times! As tweeted by the Washington Free Beacon’s David Rutz, Avenatti appeared on seven different programs on MSNBC on a single day, May 4. I do hope alleged Donald Trump paramour Stormy Daniels is his only client, because I find it difficult to believe he’s not neglecting his other cases and clients. Last week I discussed the defamation suit Avenatti filed on behalf of Daniels against the president over a tweet. Finally, CNN contributor and legal analyst Paul Callan called out Avenatti to his face, and said the lawsuit was a "publicity stunt." True to form, Avenatti acted like a complete buffoon in response. At one point, Callan mentioned Daniels had appeared in 200 to 500 pornographic movies. Avenatti interrupted him and asked, "From what you’ve read or what you seen?" How can anyone take Avenatti seriously when he continues to act like a jack-ss? When pressed by Callan on actual legal questions, Avenatti became flustered and childishly cried "You’ve got to stop interrupting me!" It was nice to finally see someone push back at Avenatti’s nonsense. ...who is funding this charade. This week Daniels confirmed in a tweet what we all already knew‐that she is not paying Avenatti. We know they have a legal fund set up. But I am beginning to think there is something or someone larger at play. It’s no secret that for five years Avenatti worked at a political opposition and media firm run by Rahm Emanuel, who we all know went on to become Obama’s chief of staff. Indeed, Avenatti’s website says that during this time he worked on more than 150 campaigns, including Joe Biden’s Senate campaign! |
