3. not real sure what's going on here

A reporter from WSJ named Joe Palazzola apparently had sources that named Kieth Davidson (a lawyer in LA) as the lead attorney representing a group of women "from Trump's past". Keith sends a letter denying that he represents any such group or individuals and wants the WSJ to stop contacting current and past clients of his law firm. The WSJ lawyers reply with a letter back saying that the reporter has every right to investigate "pressing public concern" and to dismiss any threats from Mr. Davidson about potential legal action he might take against the WSJ.

However... I'm not clear at all what this is all about.

7. I feel the same way.

Perhaps Avenatti will makes things clearer soon (I hope).

9. Look at post #6 in this thread

I found out by listening to "ring of fire"... Sam Seder had a reporter on that explained the whole thing.

Keith Davidson did represent a number of women, including one "former playmate" who received huge payouts from Broidy... not Trump.

But then the same Davidson was in a meeting with Cohen to close a $1B deal with Saudi's... allegedly to influence US policy on Qatar.

13. This is BIG. On November 3, before the election, Keith Davidson

took this email he'd written to the WSJ reporter and FORWARDED IT TO MICHAEL COHEN, the attorney supposedly representing the opposing group of women.

This gives weight to Avenatti's claim that Davidson and Cohen were colluding.

[pnwmom]

12. It sounds like Avenatti is saying that the WSJ knew about Stormy and other women

before the election but didn't print it.

[lapfog_1]

14. this is more about Keith Davidson lying about representing those women

and especially one playboy playmate who may have had an abortion.

She was paid $1.2M out of the same slush fund that paid Stormy.

Her "affair" was allegedly with one Broidy. Broidly has apparently "taken a bullet" in these sorts of payoffs in the past.

Broidy, Davidson, and Cohen were in a meeting where the Saudi's paid $1B to have US change it's policy on Qatar.

15. This stinks to high heaven.

[pnwmom]

16. And also about Davidson forwarding the email to Cohen -- adding evidence

that they've been colluding all along.

4. You just smell Murdoch all over this.

Trump is calling in all his favors. The shit landslide is increasing in movement.

5. We know Davidson was lying his ass off

Because Davidson was currently representing Stormy Daniels.

Also, why did he forward a copy of the exchange with the WSJ to Cohen? Probably because Davidson and Cohen were colluding and Cohen (and Trump) were paying Davidson to cut deals with women to sign non-disclosure agreements. Davidson was showing them he was holding up his end of the bargain. This was unethical as hell and Davidson should be disbarred if true.

6. yes, I just listened to ring of fire

davidson is up to his slimy little ass in this.

all has to do with Broidy (who got Cohen to pay a "mistress of Broidy" $1.2M) and

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/05/top-trump-fundraiser-broidy-reportedly-secured-usd1-billion-in-contracts-from-saudi-arabia-and-uae-in-return-for-pushing-anti-qatar-policies-to-administration.html

guess who was in the meetings over this... Keith Davidson.

I guess he could legally state that he wasn't representing anyone "adverse" to Trump because they were using Broidy as a cut out because there was likely an abortion in this one.

Sam Seder is speculating that there is a "public disclosure" in the pre-nup that Melania and Donald signed which may now be at play allowing Melania to sue for divorce and get at least half of the assets as the pre-nup was violated by Donald. Possible

8. This is very helpful. Thanks. (and interesting)

11. If Avenatti can get this out there Trumpers will be frenzied.

10. His CNN interview proved he was lying. He was sweating buckets. nt

17. Methinks Trump's cover story is starting to unravel.
