Kimmel rallies donations for Stormy Daniels's legal fund

Source: The HILL



.
Jimmy Kimmel rallied support for Stormy Daniels's legal fund against President Trump on Thursday, saying that donating to it is an "act of patriotism."

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is suing to void a nondisclosure agreement that she says bars her from speaking publicly about an affair she had with Trump more than a decade ago.

"I never thought giving money to a porn star would be considered an act of patriotism, but then again I never thought a guy who got into a Twitter war with Cher would become president," the late-night host said on his ABC show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

"And remember, every dollar you donate potentially brings us one step closer to seeing photos that will haunt our dreams forever," he added.

Regardless of one's feelings about the "industry", this really is an important cause.

Her cover page states she does not intend to profit personally, and will donate any money left over after paying her legal fees, to the legal defense fund.

Where the Money is NOT Going.

There is a lot of misinformation out there regarding the funds being raised on this site.

First, I want to be clear as to what this money is NOT being raised for. This money is not going to me personally. Ever. It is only being used to cover the legal expenses and potential damages I describe on the home page. If the money is not needed, it will be used pursuant to the crowdjustice guidelines on unused funds as with all other cases on their site. In other words, I am not going to pocket any money. The money is being controlled at all times by my attorneys in a trust account.

Second, if you donate, your donation merely appears as a donation to "Crowd Justice" on your bank or credit card statement. There is no reference to Stormy Daniels or Stephanie Clifford.

Thank you for continuing to support me.

it brings this shit house down, but I have my doubts! Mueller and his findings are hopefully the trigger for that, or a culmination of the two.

However, what on earth was she thinking to sleep with that thing? He is repulsive!

and left a note of support. Popular vote loser Donald Trump is trying his usual bullying tactics on this woman from the platform OF OUR WHITE HOUSE! I hope millions of people kick in on this, even a buck or two. It's a nice way to send a little "fuck you" to that treasonous bastard. (I like that unused funds will go to worthy cause.)
