It’s been a wild few weeks for Michael Avenatti. The “street fighter” who can defeat President Trump, both as a candidate in 2020 and in court on behalf of Stormy Daniels.
For most of 2018, the lawyer has managed to stay in the national spotlight with the countless TV appearances.
Then a stunning reversal, Avenatti was up against domestic violence accusations.
A $4.85-million judgment in favor of a former colleague, who alleges Avenatti funneled money to different entities to avoid paying his debts.
A public rift with Daniels, who told The Daily Beast that he launched a fundraising site in her name without her permission and filed a defamation suit against Trump against her wishes, then the pair appeared to have reconciled.
A debtor’s examination related to unpaid child and spousal support in his divorce. According to one September court filing, Avenatti owes his ex-wife more than $1 million.

The potential criminal probe into Avenatti and his client Julie Swetnick, who claimed she witnessed then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh spike girls’ drinks at high-school parties so they could be “gang-raped” by groups of boys... then inconsistencies.
More to come...?
