Ex-Playboy Model Karen McDougal Sues to Break Silence on Trump
New York Times ^ | 03/20/2018 | By JIM RUTENBERG

Posted on 03/20/2018 12:08:04 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

A former Playboy model who claimed she had an affair with Donald J. Trump sued on Tuesday to be released from a 2016 legal agreement requiring her silence, becoming the second woman this month to challenge Trump allies’ efforts during the presidential campaign to bury stories about extramarital relationships.

The model, Karen McDougal, is suing the company that owns The National Enquirer, American Media Inc., which paid her $150,000 and whose chief executive is a friend of President Trump’s. The other woman, the adult entertainment star Stephanie Clifford, better known as Stormy Daniels, was paid $130,000 to stay quiet by the president’s personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen. She filed suit earlier this month.

Both women, who argue that their contracts are invalid, are trying to get around clauses requiring them to resolve disputes in secretive arbitration proceedings rather than in open court. Mr. Trump has denied the affairs.

Ms. McDougal, in a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, claims that Mr. Cohen was secretly involved in her talks with A.M.I., and that the media company and her lawyer at the time misled her about the deal. She also asserts that after she spoke with The New Yorker last month after it obtained notes she kept on Mr. Trump, A.M.I. warned that “any further disclosures would breach Karen’s contract” and “cause considerable monetary damages.”

In an email to The New York Times, her new lawyer, Peter K. Stris, accused A.M.I. of “a multifaceted effort to silence Karen McDougal.”

No doubt, there is a LOT of money involved.

Karen McDougal (PMOY) is violating her agreeent to put stress on the President’s marriage. Someone should take Miss. McDougal’s saline tits that she took out and hit her over the head with them — hrumph!

She is not the same as from her PMOY days. Her saline implants were giving her allergies, so she had them taken out. She is not so curvy now. Miss. McDougal should’ve used silicon instead.

Reminds us of Mimi Alford and Mary Pinchot Meyer who allegedly had affairs with President Kennedy. Let's talk about that.

Nothing similar, unless we find one of these little vixens mysteriously dead on the C&O Canal towpath...

Meyer was shot to death on the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal towpath on October 12, 1964, three weeks after the release of the Warren Commission Report, whose conclusions Meyer allegedly challenged. Meyer’s long history of criticism of the CIA, the timing of her killing, the CIA’s wiretapping of her phone, and the effort by CIA counterintelligence chief James Jesus Angleton to retrieve Meyer’s diary immediately after her death have prompted investigation of possible CIA involvement in her murder ... The man accused of the murder, Ray Crump, Jr., was acquitted at trial in July, 1965. The murder remains officially unsolved.

And if we do, the first suspect should be John Brennan, followed by James Comey, Andrew McCabe and Robert Mueller.

Oh, hell, let's put them all in jail now just in case, oh, and Terry McAuliffe, too, just on spec.

Somebody told this BIMBO her story, true or not, was worth lots more than the $130,000 she was paid.

Now she's trying to cash in and to be honest there is absolutely nothing ILLEGAL involved, whether Trump had an affair with her or not.

Another "ATTENTION/MONEY WHORE" has emerged.
