Editor's Note: There is strong language in both the videos and statements below. Viewer discretion is advised.
Michael Avenatti, the "creepy porn lawyer" who represented Stormy Daniels, is now representing a client who alleges that Fox News' Tucker Carlson assaulted him, POLITICO reported.
According to Avenatti, his client was pulled by the collar during an altercation that took place between him and Carlson at a restaurant in Virginia.
1/2 - We are investigating an alleged assault on a gay latino immigrant committed by T. Carlson and/or members of his inner circle at a club in VA in Oct. It likely includes underage drinking in violation of VA law. Link to a portion of the incident:https://t.co/QcbCRHrplP— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
2/2 - We are attempting to locate additional witnesses and to identify those depicted in the video. In particular, we need assistance identifying the balding man that grabs the man seated at the bar. We anticipate charges being filed. Anyone with knowledge, pls contact us.— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
Fox News provided Townhall with the following statement from Carlson:
On October 13, I had dinner with two of my children and some family friends at the Farmington Country Club in Charlottesville, Virginia. Toward the end of the meal, my 19-year-old daughter went to the bathroom with a friend. On their way back through the bar, a middle aged man stopped my daughter and asked if she was sitting with Tucker Carlson. My daughter had never seen the man before. She answered: ‘That’s my dad,’ and pointed to me. The man responded, ‘Are you Tucker’s wh*re?’ He then called her a ‘f**king c*nt.’
My daughter returned to the table in tears. She soon left the table and the club. My son, who is also a student, went into the bar to confront the man. I followed. My son asked the man if he’d called his sister a ‘whore’ and a ‘c*nt.’ The man admitted he had, and again become profane. My son threw a glass of red wine in the man’s face and told him to leave the bar, which he soon did.
Immediately after the incident, I described these events to the management of the Farmington Country Club. The club spent more than three weeks investigating the incident. Last week, they revoked the man’s membership and threw him out of the club.
I love my children. It took enormous self-control not to beat the man with a chair, which is what I wanted to do. I think any father can understand the overwhelming rage and shock that I felt seeing my teenage daughter attacked by a stranger. But I restrained myself. I did not assault this man, and neither did my son. That is a lie. Nor did I know the man was gay or Latino, not that it would have mattered. What happened on October 13 has nothing to do with identity politics. It was a grotesque violation of decency. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life.
Avenatti quickly took to Twitter to refute Carlson's statement, accusing the Fox News host of lying:
1/3 - @TuckerCarlson - your stmt about what transpired is an absolute lie. Your daughter nor your son were called those things. The man never admitted it. Your son committed assault and battery. You committed assault (learn the difference). Your friend” committed assault...— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
2/3 - and battery (on video). You are the aggressor in the video as is your friend. The man at the bar sits there calmly. Numerous witnesses contradict your claim of innocence. Your daughter was drinking underage in a bar with your assistance and knowledge. You were intoxicated.— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
3/3 - You told the man to “go back where you came from” before the video starts. And if you were so innocent, why didn’t you disclose it weeks ago as you recently did in connection with the protest at your home?— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
Avenatti also shared screen captures of statement witnesses, although they appear to be carefully selected:
These are from one of the eyewitness stmts that completely undercuts the lies Tucker Carlson is now telling in connection with his bigotry directed at Juan, a gay Latino immigrant. Tucker’s conduct is not only illegal, it is also disgraceful. pic.twitter.com/PqQINUUjVO— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
Other excerpts from yet another eyewitness stmt that also shows Tucker Carlson is lying about what happened. He should be immediately disciplined for his conduct. pic.twitter.com/tdF1QnRLPD— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) November 10, 2018
This incident comes after Antifa protestors showed up at Carlson's Virginia home last week, threatening his family. His wife, who was home alone, hid in the pantry closet while the mob banged on the front door.
If web are to judge this on the veracity of his other claims ...
I’m feeling very Henry II-ish:
Will no one rid me of this turbulent shyster?
The confrontation took place on October 13. The Club investigated for three weeks, cancelled his membership and kicked him out.
Kicked wo out Tucker or numbnuts?
“Sounds like a setup - attack his teenage daughter knowing that will set a father and brother off, then sit at the bar and wait to be attacked on video.”
The incidents with Carlson, Avenetti, and even Acosta are the work of leftist “Agent Provacateurs”. Start an incident and try to get the target to do something stupid or inappropriate. Use that to turn people against them and make them seem like the aggressor. Get them arrested or at least make them quit or be fired. This is right out of the Commie handbook.
Ah, so this is why Antifa attacked Carlson’s house. I was wondering why they chose such a mainstream sort of conservative target when they had others more edgy at hand, but with this prior incident you can see why (this restaurant encounter was three weeks ago according to the article).
... and he’s looking for a bald man who attacks people? umm, got a mirror, dude? ...
This goes back to the medias misunderstanding of Trump calling Stormy Daniels a Horse face. You see she claims to be an actress, but Actors and Actresses only pretend to be doing things like shooting people or killing Godzilla. Stephanie Clifford (her real name) does not pretend to do anything; she actually engages in sex acts of all kinds with any number of people, for money. She has voluntarily defiled and debased her own body and soul and those she engages with for all the world to see. She is by definition, a whore. She is not an equine. Her face could be posted in Websters Dictionary under the word whore. She has a whores face.
This does not mean that she is beyond redemption. She could repent. But we have it on good Authority, that if she does not, it will not end well for her.
Another classy client for Ava’nutti; What kind of man calls a young lady “f**king c*nt”?
It sure sounds like it was set up.
I'm not unfamiliar with incidents like that in my life and family. Let it go at that.
When will this vile snake be disbarred!?
Who knew?
Avenutti the bottom feeder is bottom feeding again. Itd be a real shame if Avenutti got his butt kicked by some unidentified citizens.
Fcuk charges
Me and two oldest boys woulda beat that man down
Overnight stay in the hospital minimum for him
Red wine...bottle over his head
I almost beat a man to death at 18..
Had me on my knees praying for his survival
I warn my boys to show restraint
Somebody does what that guy did to their daughter....they can forget that lesson
Say that to my number two daughter and she woulda stabbed em
Even at six month loaded like now
Disagree, I’ll bet the Creepy Porn Lawyer Himself was behind this. He hates Tucker Carlson, and he needs money. He’s got plenty of pals who will insult a girl for pocket change and evidently the country club isn’t exclusive enough to keep him out. Means, motive, and opportunity.
This is why the Left doesn’t like due process. They want to destroy people with just an accusation.
The problem with avenatti is after the porn star loss and the rape gang lie...WHO will believe him?
That's right !
I believe that Tucker has four daughters, but no son.
I would guess Soros is paying this guy
