    Thumbs up Michael Avenatti, The Hero We Need or The Hero We Deserve?

    The current situation seems so unprecedented, I'm saying the hero we need.
    But for the current moment, there is immeasurable value in him bringing so much information to the public. He seems to be doing the work most of the media could not be bother to do. Or say the things that Muller won't or is not allowed to say.

    Was never into twitter, but his feed has been more and more informative.

    In 2017-18 - Why was Mr. Cohen paying Demeter Direct Inc. in Los Angeles large sums of money from his Essential Consultants LLC account? Keep attacking me Mr. Giuliani and @foxnews. Please. #Basta

    That's the questions journalists should be asking. What's a Demeter Direct? Sounds like the answer to those pop-up ads about "this one neat trick..."

    I'm sure anything he's uncovered thus far is also well known to Mueller at this point, but it's nice to see the stuff out in the public.

    He is an obnoxious attention grabbing whore.

    That being said, it seems to be the only thing working against the trumpian doctrine. I like how effective he has been. Hopefully, after all this is over, Trump and in extension Avenatti will become an example on how not do things, and not the new standard.

    Very much so. Mueller's crew was grilling AT&T, Novartis, and probably all the other mentioned companies back in November.

    Mueller is living in 2021 while we're stuck in 2016.

    Pretty much this. We're all "ooh, ahh, thats a big revelation!". Mueller knew this 6 months ago (or longer). The stuff thats in the public domain is literally the tip of the iceberg. Thats why all the Trump shills are busy deflecting their little hearts out.

    When Mueller does *eventually* move its going to be quick, decisive and devastating and you don't rush things like this.

    Also, out of interest, theres grumblings from the GOP about who is paying for Avenatti since Stormy Daniels isn't. I'm guessing its not a Russian Oligarch.

    Hillary's emails. They've been given so much attention they've become sentient.

    Michael Avenatti is both the hero we need and the hero we deserve. I wish him continued success in his maximum pressure campaign against Trump.

    When I think of Trump I think of what Winston Churchill said.

    My guess is that he's working for a few things:

    1) Publicity
    2) Contingency on the defamation suit
    3) Cut of the book deal after the NDA is lifted

    He's clearly good at his job, which is probably why he pisses off Trump and his cohort so much.

    We are currently in such a surreal situation that a lawyer for a pornstar plunging a stake into the heart of the President while running circles around his legal team just seems NORMAL.

    Don't forget also, that he doesn't seem to actually have to do any work, since the "lawyers" on the other side are Frito Pendejo levels of competent and are basically doing his job for him.
