Reporting from inside the courthouse
Stormy Daniels… [is] also seeking to snipe at Necheles’s word choices, as she seeks to avoid losing a round to the defense lawyer, arguing about whether or not she did in fact accept money to keep silent and insisting she wanted her story out. But she’s in a tough spot: at the end of the day, she was paid nearly $100,000 after her representatives took their cuts and her story did not get out in 2016, when she was paid.
Yeah, she can’t plausibly argue that. Sleazy lawyer, sleazy witness, sleazy defendant.
