Celebrity lawyer Michael Avenattii has been arrested on charges related to an alleged $20 million extortion of the athletic apparel company Nike, federal authorities said Monday.

A press conference is scheduled to discuss the charges against Avenatti in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon.

Avenatti had represented porn star Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against President Donald Trump and his former lawyer Michael Cohen.

The charges were revealed less than an hour after Avenatti announced a press conference to discuss claims against Nike.

Now if we could just have someone like Clemenza to take care of these Carlo types.

For those who don’t know, the City of Portland has been trying to grab much of the unused land Nike owns by any means possible.
Since we KNOW that one of the Obama Attack Machine groups works out of Portland, they were probably involved in this.

Avenetti was the hero of the MSM only 6 months ago.

The Trump Curse strikes right after Trump gets a big win against the Witch Hunt.

I think Avenattii was used by the Clintons to attack Trump. He’s just the type of controllable worm with all sorts of troubles that they like.

Gosh, I hope this doesn’t negatively impact his Presidential campaign. :)

As long as he;s running as a democrat and didn't collude with the Russians he's good. Actually scratch that part about not colluding with Russians, democrat candidates are allowed to do that too.

At first, I thought this was an April Fool’s joke.
Then I remembered we are talking about Avenatti. So anything is possible.
He seems to be stepping into bucket after bucket here lately.
Even Stormy D. has ‘washed her hands’ of him!

It worked for him before.

“Pay $130,000 or I will call a press conference right before the election and announce that you had an affair with Stormy Daniels.”
