The U.S. Attorney’s offices in New York and Los Angeles separately filed charges against Avenatti, with the California case accusing him of embezzling a client’s money to cover his own debts, as well as using phony tax returns to obtain millions of dollars in loans from a bank. Prosecutors said Avenatti also offered to accept a $22.5 million payment to resolve any claims the client might have, and to “buy Avenatti’s silence.”
In spite of how he slammed Trump and Cohen, I found this guy to be an insufferable egomaniac.
Man, it's either going to hurt his poop numbers or he'll be the next president of the United States.
What a turn of events!
The elites are starting to fall. End of USA empire. Yipppeee !!!👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
Opps! Everything that came out of this guys mouth was pure journalistic fact to your organization.
Trump caught up with you and others soon ah am so dam disappointed
a political prisoner in trumps amarica
something smells
Michael Avenatti is another scumbag attorney that reinforces the typical stereotype lawyer. We all knew he was a POS worm trying to make money and a name for himself defending Daniels and attacking the POTUS. I hope he shares a cell with Cohen and Carton...3 of a kind
Hahaha
AND SO SHOULD YOU REUTERS FOR FRAUD AGAINST MAGA.
“The Resistance” has been projecting its own crimes onto others for the past 2 years. Anti-semites running the Women’s March, Justice Dems pushing foreign policy interests of Moscow & Tehran, and now their top spokesman is revealed as a liar, a swindler, and a thief. BASTA
One more apparent crooked jerk tarring others.
He is going to prison for a looooongggg time
people in glass houses........
I always thought he and Trump were friends. Secret friends. One of them friends Trump had to do stuff for him.
annettecasals No word from CNN?
Avenatti may be getting more sex in jail than Stormy Daniels ever got making porn,
Looks like a lawyer gone ROGUE!
This thug’s behavior has nothing to do with Trump. If anything, don’t mess with President Trump😂
HERO DEMOCRAT AVENATTI CNN FAKENEWS STOOGE ARRESTED FOR EXTORTION USA NIKE .. SCUMBAG LAWYER FOR DEMOCRATS
I can’t believe anyone gave this fraud a platform (ahem, CNN), let alone a law license.
This scum bag was the darling of the media for weeks with his lies and false accusations against Judge Kavanaugh. Where’s the accountability on the part of the media?
This played out on Twitter today... Right after he tweeted about his “Nike Press Release”, the charges were filed & he was arrested. Apparently, he was extorting Nike for almost $30M, so I’m assuming the tweet was seen by investigators as “the last straw”. ByeCreepyPornLawyer
Avenatti2020PresidentOfHisCellBlock
No one is surprised.
Would expect nothing less from a renowned prostitutes lawyer....He should fun for President of the new Dem-Socialist Party 🤣🤣🤣
Think not running for president anymore .....
Hopefully Stormy gave him some advice. He is going to need it.
Something about rocks and glass houses...?!?😳🙄
You mean CNN contributor
Disbar him! Corruption
$20 million sneaker on his face.
So it's both, a scam and an extortion?
If this does not jump MichaelAvenatti into the top echelon of Democrat2020 contenders, I do not know what will!
Your tweet should read 'Trump critic and media darling.' CNN & MSNBC had him on non stop and enabled this buffoon.
only a matter of time with this guy
If he had the info he should have sued in a court of law.
Thats... so glorious. Nice timing aswell.
Reminder: some people were so enamored in this guy there was even talk about him running for office!
For a lawyer, Michael has a hard time following the law!
Michael Avenaughty
🤣🤣🤣
