Michael Avenatti charged with defrauding Stormy Daniels

NEW YORK — Michael Avenatti, the attorney who rocketed to fame through his representation of porn star Stormy Daniels in her battles with President Donald Trump, was charged Wednesday with ripping her off.

Avenatti was previously charged in New York with trying to extort up to $25 million from Nike by threatening to expose claims that the shoemaker paid off high school basketball players to steer them to Nike-sponsored colleges. And in Los Angeles, he's facing a multicount federal indictment alleging that he stole millions of dollars from clients, didn't pay taxes, committed bank fraud and lied during bankruptcy proceedings.

The money was supposed to buy her silence about an alleged affair with the president, who denies that it took place. In August, Cohen pleaded guilty to violating campaign finance laws in connection with the payment.In a statement, she said Avenatti had launched a fundraising effort to raise money for her legal case without telling her. She also said he had filed a defamation lawsuit against Trump, on her behalf, against her wishes.

You know who saw this a mile away and called him out instead of propping him up...

He'll be joined by Hillary, Comey, Brennan, Tapper etc. pretty soon

Avenatti would make an outstanding FISA judge - perfect fit!

Hey, say what you want but dude cracked open the Cohen flood gates

Does that make Avenatti a pimp?

Clown

WELL, MIKE, LOOKS LIKE TRUMP IS A BETTER CON THAN YOU. BUT, YOU ALL GET CAUGHT EVENTUALLY. YOU COULD HAVE LIVED COMFORTABLY USING YOUR GOD GIVEN SKILLS. SEE WHAT GREED DOES? IT MAKES ONE SICK.

Top Dem Presidential hopeful.

I wonder how the ladies TheView minus MeghanMcCain are handling the news that their hero MichaelAvenatti is heading to prison... ananavarro ‘offered him a job hosting and called him the ‘holy spirit’ JoyVBehar said he was ‘saving our country’ sunny flirts w/ criminals

Love how he says he lost 'millions of dollars' defending her as if he got NOTHING out of it. He wanted more money, he should have negotiated a higher fee. He doesn't get to just take what isn't his.

Another stellar Democrat.

The guys been a bottom feeder for his whole life........

Michael Avenatti, Stormy Daniels, Donald Trump..... Peas in a pod.

He has a bright future in the GOP

Democratic front runner last year at this time. All crooks .....propped up by of course CNN! Ha! So predictable RestoreIntegrity. How appropriate!! So awesome 👏🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Those virtuous lefty men are something else.

These headlines are gonna put The Onion out of business

Politico's antiTrump hero, darling, honey, sweetheart.....

Steal from the hand that fed you

so Stormy got screwed by both Trump and Avenatti....

Finally, his Democratic Party white hood fell off...

Hhahahahhahahhahahahahhahahhahhahahahahhhahahahahhahahahahahwhhaha

If you lie to MSNBC is that like lying to congress?

Finally

Trump surrounds himself with people who are worse then him...if that’s possible.

Ripping off, like down to her G-string?

I guess it's gone from 'Avenatti 2020' to now 'Avenatti 20 to Life'.

Hahaha... a match made in hades...

Hat tip to the prosecutors that figured out how to charge him with exactly 69 years worth of crimes! 69! 🤣🤣

His hopes of running for president aren't completely dead, however. He and Trump just now have more in common. They're both criminals and they both f'ed Stormy.

Let's all remember the media put this guy on a pedestal due to the fact he was against the Pres.

With the idiots at CNN&MSNBC put him on now?They got bamboozled!

joshgerstein How far he's fallen. Let's see if these charges stick.

Apparently he held onto the grenade

He blocks you if you say something bad about him.

It takes a porn star to get rich from being screwed by guys

realDonaldTrump, LindseyGrahamSC, SpeakerPelosi, RepJerryNadler listen to LindseyGrahamSC make the case for you when talking about Nixon LindseyGrahamSC words prove that realDonaldTrump is involved in a cover-up.

Hahaha to think CNN and their loser following were promoting this guy as a presidential candidate.

Sheesh. Shows how desperate the sleazy, corrupt admin of POTUS45 has made us that we wouldn't see the red flags with Avenatti. So, no Presidential run? I think we tend to throw around the term 'star' too loosely.
