says, his documents is inaccurate. and for once michael cohen is right. the documents that stormy daniels lawyer, michael avenatti presented to us on this program last night showing $4.5 milli $4.5 million going into and out of the llc that michael cohen created in order to pay stormy daniels $130,000 to keep her quiet, those documents contain some minor inaccuracies that michael cohen has been owning up to as soon as they were discovered. sitting here last night michael avenatti described $4,425,033.46 that flowed through essential consultants l.l.c. and michael cohen s bank accounts. the flow of that money contains possible inaccuracies about four
michael cohen was selling access to the highest office in the land and donald trump knew about it and knew michael cohen was not a registered lobbyist and knew he wasn t making the requisite disclosure and what is interesting to see, i think, jake, ultimately is when you trace the money about what money came into this llc and what money went out of the llc and the president and michael cohen better hope that none of that money gets traced back to the president or the trump organization or another entity that the president controlled at the time. because if so, i think that could have serious consequences. do you have evidence that president trump knew about this? do you have evidence that some of that money going into this essential essential consultants, this shell corporation that michael cohen set up, that some of the money did find its way into the coffers of the trump organization or any or anything related to president trump. i m not going to disclose right here right now
the idea that donald trump knew none of what michael cohen was doing starting in january of 2017, i think is a bunch of nonsense. you just don t believe it. the shell corporation we first learned about it because of your case, the stormy daniels case and the hush money payment, $130,000 paid to her to keep her quiet about her alleged affair with president trump. do you suspect any of the money from the russian oligarch or whom ever was purposefully funneled again that is rudy giuliani s word not mine, funneled through this shell corporation in order to pay off stormy daniels? we don t know whether the the payments from the oligarch were made for the specific purpose of paying back the $130,000. but what we do know is the payment was made on october 27th of 2016. and there does not appear to be any substantial deposits between that payment and the first payment that was directed to the llc from the oligarch in january of 2017. you seem to be suggesting
and one of the reasons, one of the ways that it s working is because we re so out front on this. people send us information. people want to help our cause. people contact us with information. when you talk about your cause, what is your cause? what s the end our cause right now is having the nda invalidated for stormy daniels. holding michael cohen responsible for his defamatory statements. holding mr. trump responsible for his defamatory statements. and ultimately having all the information relating to this account, the llc and the payment to my client laid out for the american people so they can decide what to do. michael avenatti, thanks very much. appreciate it. just ahead, more reaction on that payment to michael cohen. this time from preet bhara. with eeel have the latest in west virginia ahead.
