1. ...

Sorry mike you have ZERO credibility.

[PJMcK]

2. Isn't he in jail?

I don’t think Avenatti has a lot of credibility anymore.

[jcgoldie]

3. Avenatti...

[FoxNewsSucks]

9. yet some here wanted him to be the 2020 D candidate. . .

[ChoppinBroccoli]

4. Even If We Assume He's Right About New Evidence........

...........I'm trying to imagine ANY scenario where these texts and emails could contain ANY information that would help Trump's case. I think pretty much all the parties have already admitted the sex took place, the money was paid, and that money can be traced back to campaign funds.

Probably the only scenario I can dream up that helps Trump is if they're texts/emails from Trump himself to Cohen saying, "I specifically forbid you from paying this money." And you KNOW nothing like that exists.

21. Your assumptions are wrong.

Trump has denied the sex, the money being paid is irrelevant (Hush money arrangements are legal in NY), and where the money came from is in dispute.

5. Remember when some folks on here were suggesting Avenati's name for a 2020 run?

Lol...fun times. Dude has ZERO credibility

6. my favorite of the so and so for

president threads!

[Docreed2003]

14. Those were wild times for real

[former9thward]

22. The problem is that no one in the case has any credibility.

Michael Cohen is a convicted liar. Then there is Trump... and there is Stormy -- a porn star.

7. Says the unbiased man who stole money from Stormy Daniels and sentenced to 4 years in prison.

Michael Avenatti Sentenced To Over Two Years In Prison For Attempting To Extort Nike And For Defrauding His Client

Avenatti ought to know that a bunch of what they were talking to Cohen about was the insurance, bank and tax fraud. Pomerantz said it was very complicated. Took them a long time to sort it out because for example, valuation of asset methods changed according to the needs and whims of Trump. Weisselberg wasn't playing along. Avenatti is stupid or bullshitting if he thinks they had 20 meetings with Cohen to talk about Stormy. At least Avenatti has about 20 years in prison to figure that out. I was pretty disappointed in his scam.

10. Michael, has that check cleared the bank yet?

If it doesn't, and we all know it won't, just remember, it is suitable for framing, sucker.

[johnp3907]

11. Credible source there.

[JohnSJ]

12. Such a reliable source on musk's twitter

[Takket]

13. yeah sure, like this jackass has access to Bragg's trove of evidence. he doesn't know shit

get bent you hack.

How the hell is he tweeting BTW? Shouldn't he be in prison?

[BootinUp]

15. Why would I believe this creep? nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

19. Because he probably knows 1,000,000 times more

than we do about the case?

[BootinUp]

20. I don't follow that logic. nt

[blogslug]

16. lol, he salty

Don't steal from your clients, Michael.

[roamer65]

17. Maybe it isnt a hush money case.

Maybe it’s tax fraud, Mikey.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

18. Wow, well that sucks!

[Bev54]

23. Why do I doubt that this is him, I do believe he is in prison

Probably twit Elmo himself.

[Marius25]

26. He is in fact in prison.

His current prison sentence is until 2026, but he was also sentenced in California in December for another 14 years for wire fraud.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

24. Can one tweet from jail?

Is this even him?

[Marius25]

25. This isn't Michael Avenatti unless convicted felons are now allowed to tweet

from prison. He's currently in federal prison in California not scheduled to be released until 2026, and he has another conviction where he was sentenced to 14 years in California.

[Meowmee]

28. What I read says

He is serving 2.5 for one fraud and 4 for another.

[Marius25]

29. There's another case he was charged for in December

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Avenatti

Avenatti pleaded guilty on June 16, 2022, and on December 5, 2022, he was sentenced by James V. Selna in a California court to 14 years in prison for wire fraud as well as obstruction against the IRS in their effort to collect $5 million in unpaid payroll taxes for Tully's Coffee.

On June 2, 2022, Avenatti was sentenced to four years in prison on top of the 2+1⁄2 years he is already serving after another fraud conviction.[122][123] Avenatti, registration number 86743-054, is currently incarcerated at Federal Correctional Institution, Terminal Island, where he was scheduled for release in 2026.

I'm not sure how those sentencing time lines work out. The note at the bottom says he was sentenced to 2.5 years for defrauding Nike, 4 years for defrauding Stormy Daniels, and 14 years for defrauding other clients and the IRS. So according to Wikipedia at least, he will be getting out of prison when he's in his 70s.

30. I just read that one too 😀

[Meowmee]

27. Unbelievable that he is is in jail

And the monster still walks free
