Michael Avenatti on Jake Tapper's CNN show explaining influence peddling/Screenshot
Attorney Michael Avenatti apparently threatened to release embarrassing information about Rudy Giuliani if he didn't apologize to former actress Stormy Daniels.
The attorney publicly solicited help finding proof of Giuliani's pornography habits after the president's legal adviser slut-shamed Daniels, and he tweeted a hint that the search turned up evidence of his hypocrisy.
"Mr. Giuliani: my client deserves an apology for your sexist, disgusting, comments about her and women in general," Avenatti tweeted. "I strongly suggest you provide one. Are you really taking the position that you have not viewed porn in the last year? Ever hear of something called an IP address?..."
Avenatti made the public appeal for help digging into Giuliani's personal life over the weekend, and he tweeted a hint Sunday afternoon that the search had proved fruitful.
