/by the way? Did not take long for the leftists to abandon the #Ibelieveher cause when their sleazy hero got arrested because "She hit me first." Nice

You are choosing to throw your lot in with Jacob Wohl, then. Fair enough. I'm going to wait until we have more reliable information before forming an opinion.

Oh, and just to stave off any potential accusations of bias from you - I'm on record, in this thread, as calling Avenatti a "scumbag". I have no dog in this fight, and I don't care in the slightest if he is guilty, beyond feeling bad for the victim and hoping justice is served. I'm just not going to take Jacob Wohl at his word, especially not when TMZ have already had to issue a correction for this story.
 
Since Democrats have nothing invested in Avenatti, this is another opportunity to highlight the difference in how moderates deal with sexual abuse accusations.
It's a stark contrast to Trump and the rest of the GOP, not to mention the alt-right and Incels.

Wohl is trolling, and you fell for it.

My second post on this subject is telling someone who was saying that Avenatti didn't do it because Wohl took credit that it's also a plausible scenario that Wohl is lying about being responsible. So, no, I haven't fallen for anything.

You really should try reading what I've actually said before trying to attribute viewpoints to me that are the opposite of what I've said.

FWIW, that tweet you posted isn't Wohl denying to be the source of the report. It's him saying that he's not responsible for (as alleged) Avenatti hitting a woman: https://twitter.com/JacobAWohl/status/1063095195661590528

Michael Avenatti seems to believe that I am responsible for him raising his hand to a woman. I am not.

Will he release the pictures of his battered victim?

You really should try to be informed about a subject before forming an opinion.
 
It's worth bearing in mind that Surefire Intelligence have taken credit for this. For those who don't know, Surefire Intelligence is Jacob Wohl, the man who last week held a press conference alleging sexual abuse charges against Robert Mueller. Whether he actually is the source of the report or not it's too early to say.

Almost immediately: https://twitter.com/leahmcelrath/status/1062849071491309569

Vermont Democratic Party immediately cancels events planned with Michael Avenatti:

“We have not heard from his people, but while there is some kind of arrest and investigation to ensue, we’re not going to step into that arena with him."

Totally disgusting. And before anyone asks me, yes, I’m disavowing Avenatti. I do not care what side he’s on. #Basta

I'm sure there's more.

I would say it highlights the difference in how Democrats deal with sexual abuse accusations when they have something invested versus when they don't.

Sitting president? Circle the wagons.

Sleazy lawyer? Cut him loose.

The original report said it was Avenatti's estranged wife who made the complaint, but she has denied it ever happened and that she has not seen Avenatti in months. The report is now that it was "a woman" but does not identify her.

I can't help but be suspicious of the claim. I will hold off judgment until there is a proper investigation. However, you just know there will be protestations from Trump supporters screaming that "the woman" (whoever she is) must be believed or the "libtards" are being hypocrites after the Blasey-Ford/ Kavanaugh story. Of course, the situation is different at this time but that won't stop them.

The situation IS different:

We know the when and where it allegedly happened.
It happened Tuesday, not 25 years ago.
It was reported to the police and the LAPD found probable cause to arrest the suspect for felony domestic violence.

I'd say that's just a tad more credible than Ford's allegation, wouldn't you?
 
You notice how this is a criminal proceeding and not a job interview?

I think we lack sufficient information to judge credibility. Right now, we have no idea who filed the claim, do we?

Was about to note this as well - the tweet is right here. So, although it's being reported as "Avenatti claims Jacob Wohl is behind arrest", it's really "Jacob Wohl claims he is behind arrest".

Now, this isn't proof that the charge is false, and it doesn't mean I see a reason to care politically - Dolt 45 plainly used campaign funds to pay off mistresses regardless, and anyone who voted this guy for president (is that foolishness still being bandied about) has something wrong with them - but I'm skeptical.

I think you're very confused if you think "leftists" ever supported this guy.

But of course, you don't think that.

I love how much TBD thinks that Avennatti is important to the left. He is less important to the left than Ted Nugent is to the right. Is TBD going to be all bent out of shape the next time Nugent ***** his pants? Of course not. And yet he likes to act like anyone cares about Thirsty. It's precious.
 
I always thought Liberal Tears were a myth, but I can no longer deny
Because here I sit with Tears in my eyes
My Hero, My champion,
Michael Avenatti!
What have you done? Forevermore your name now be...
"Assaulter! Assaulter!"
And the taint you leave on Progressive cause, ere never more wash away






er, or something like that, I guess?

;)

You love it?

Cool cool...

I love all the leftists lining up today to say how much they don't care about Avenatti.

fantastic
