Re: Stormy Daniels punta al Senato
Inviato: 17/03/2018, 4:31
Normalemente i venerdi nel mondo politico passano tranquilli senza troppa commedia.
Nel mondo di Washington e Trump il Venerdi sta diventando un vero casino.
Dunque a tarda sera venerdi il 16 marzo 2018 due cose:
=Trump ha spinto il burattino e coniglio Jeff Sessions di licenziare il deputy director dell'FBI
Andrew McCabe, due giorni prima di prendere la sua pensione.
Sono mesi che McCabe era sul mirino di Trump (dopo aver anche saccheggiato il capo Comey)
=Trump e Cohen hanno richiesto la querela di Stormy Daniels d'essere transferita dalla corte statale alla corte federale, e spingono per tenere tutto qesta querela in privato nel;
arbitrato. Inoltre Cohen chiede gia $20 milioni in risarcimento da Daniels, datosi che secondo lui Daniels ha violato il NDA almeno 20 volte (sarei curioso di sapere come li ha calcolati).

La cosa buffa e' che Trump ora fa parte di questa spinta, e lui ha gia negato questa relazione, che non era al corrente del pagamento dei $130,000. Perche Cohen vuole $20 milioni da Daniels che non potra mai ottenere? Immagini un presiente del USA e suo avvocato corrono indietro a una porno attrice per (almeno per il momento) $20 milioni.Che fara ora CBS con l'intervista che ha gia fissato per il 25 marzo 2018? Questa mossa era per indirettamente fermare la CBS a non andare avanti con l'intervista?
Avenatti si chiede questo: How can President Donald Trump seek $20 million in damages against my client based on an agreement that he and Mr. Cohen claim Mr. Trump never was a party to and knew nothing about? (come puo il presidente Trump chiedere un risarcimento di $20 milione dalla mia cliente basato su un accordo che lui e Cohen negano che lui non era nemmeno al corrente?)

Michael Cohen, President Trump’s personal attorney, claims he has the right to seek at least $20 million in damages from porn star Stormy Daniels for allegedly violating a nondisclosure agreement 20 times.
A lawyer for Cohen’s limited liability corporation, Essential Consultants, made the claim in papers filed in federal court Friday.
Cohen also intends to force the dispute with Daniels, who alleges she was secretly paid to keep quiet about an affair with the president, out of the public eye and back into private arbitration, according to the court filing.
In a separate document also filed Friday, a lawyer representing Trump said he intends to join the push to return the proceedings to arbitration, in which all proceedings are confidential.
Michael Avenatti, a lawyer for Daniels, said the threat by Cohen and Trump to pursue millions of dollars in damages, and their efforts to take the matter behind closed doors, amounted to bullying of his client.
“To put it simply — they want to hide the truth from the American people. We will oppose this effort at every turn,” Avenatti wrote in an email. “The fact that a sitting president is pursuing over $20 million in bogus ‘damages’ against a private citizen, who is only trying to tell the public what really happened, is truly remarkable. Likely unprecedented in our history. We are not going away and we will not be intimidated by these threats.”
The decision to expose the secret deal in public court filings carries financial risks for Daniels. If a judge determines that the hush agreement is valid, she faces a penalty of $1 million for each violation of the agreement’s terms.
Cohen and Trump allege that she has already violated the agreement at least 20 times. And she may be poised to violate it again on March 25, when CBS’s “60 Minutes” tentatively plans to broadcast an interview with Daniels.
In the court documents filed Friday, lawyers for Cohen and Trump exercised their ability to move the lawsuit from state court to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. They say they intend to file a petition with the federal court to force the matter back into private arbitration as quickly as possible.
The $130,000 payment to Daniels has become a matter of keen interest for government watchdog groups. At least two complaints to the Federal Election Commission allege that the money was meant to influence the presidential election and therefore amounted to an illegal in-kind contribution to the Trump campaign.
Cohen has acknowledged making the payment to Daniels, but he has not explained what it was for. And he has insisted that he was not reimbursed for the payment by the Trump Organization or the Trump campaign.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders has rejected the notion that Trump approved the payment to Daniels.
