and
June 12, 2018
Stormy Daniel's lawyer Michael Avenatti told the Daily Beast that "two media figures and a high-ranking American intelligence official" have warned him that Russia is running a smear campaign against him.
“They suggested that I had had a liaison with multiple women in Russia,” he said.
Avenatti responded that he's "never traveled to Russia in my life.”
“They’re doing it because they see me as a threat, a considerable threat,” Avenatti explained. “If we weren’t a threat, none of this would be happening.
The Daily Beast cautions that it has not received "concrete proof" of the veracity of Avenatti's claims.
