in World News Michael Avenatti Releases DAMNING Statement Regarding Stormy Daniels’ Testimony
By Kaley
Yesterday, Stormy Daniels took the stand to give her testimony against President Trump in his New York criminal trial.
She made some salacious allegations, which he reported on here:
Reuters reported on the sordid details of Daniels’ testimony against Trump:
Adult film star Stormy Daniels testified at Donald Trump’s criminal trial on Tuesday that he told her “this is the only way you’re getting out of the trailer park” prior to having sex with her in his hotel suite in 2006.
Daniels told a New York jury she grew up as the daughter of a low-income single mother who was gone for days at a time and began working in strip clubs and in pornography before she met Trump at a Lake Tahoe golf tournament.
A New York real-estate mogul at the time, Trump was the celebrity host of a popular reality TV show known as “The Apprentice.”
Daniels testified on Tuesday that she “blacked out” after Trump prevented her from leaving the room, though she consumed no drugs or alcohol. She said she woke up on the bed with her clothes off.
“I was staring at the ceiling and didn’t know how I got there, I was trying to think about anything other than what was happening there,” Daniels testified as she described having sex with Trump.
Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, said she did not tell Trump to stop. “I didn’t say anything at all,” she said. She said she left the hotel room quickly afterward.
President Trump has denied all of Daniels’ allegations.
After Daniels left the witness stand yesterday, her ex-lawyer Michael Avenatti shared a blistering statement calling into question the credibility of her testimony.
Avenatti, of course, attained levels of infamy a few years ago for promising to send Trump to jail before winding up behind bars himself. Yet, he has recently come out in defense of President Trump and says he is willing to testify for him at the trial.
In his response to his former client’s testimony, Avenatti questioned:
“How can DA Braggs possibly rely on the testimony of Daniels who is herself guilty of fraud and recently falsifying business records to cover-up a crime (i.e. fraudulent transfer and wire fraud)?”

From The Blaze:
Following Daniels’ testimony, her former attorney Michael Avenatti posted a scathing statement on X. Avenatti, who had been disbarred and is currently serving time in a federal penitentiary, claimed Daniels had committed the same crime Trump was being accused of in the case.
He explained that he was contacted last year by a producer working on a documentary about Daniels. He had considered participating in the documentary until he learned that Daniels was getting paid for it, calling it “a clear indication to me that the project lacked integrity, would be one-sided, and controlled by Daniels.”
Additionally, Avenatti claimed that the producer told him that Daniels was going to be “secretly paid” to hide the money because “she owed Trump hundreds of thousands of dollars” following a defamation suit.
“Among other things, [the producer] told me that they had fictionally ‘optioned’ the rights to Daniels’ book and then routed the money Daniels demanded through a fabricated ‘trust’ that had been set-up in the name of Daniels’ daughter — all to hide the money from Trump and avoid paying the judgment,” Avenatti wrote.
He added that if the information he was told was accurate, “How can DA Bragg possibly rely on the testimony of Daniels, who is herself guilty of fraud and recently falsifying business records to cover-up a crime (i.e. fraudulent transfer and wire fraud)?”
“Further, will DA Bragg or others be promptly filing criminal charges against Daniels or others involved in this scheme?” Avenatti asked.
