Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and there's more
0:04
devastating news for Stormy Daniels as we are one day away from opening arguments in
0:10
the Trump-Alvin Bragg-Stormy Daniels-Michael Cohen hush money case. Did I name enough people

0:26
If you watched my videos yesterday, you know that there is a possible surprise witness
0:31
in the Stormy Daniels case and that is her former attorney Michael Avenatti
0:35
An avowed anti-Trumper for so long, why would Michael Avenatti change his mind
0:42
And if he does, I believe the testimony he brings will be devastating for Stormy Daniels
0:49
And I think she knows it. And I think she's about to be humiliated in front of the world, which is kind of hard
0:56
to humiliate her any more than she's done to herself in life, but I believe this will
1:00
do it because I think she's in this for publicity. I've said that from the beginning and she talks about she's not making money for appearances
1:08
or for her documentary. Yeah, but her fees to go to certain clubs and perform certain duties or to be in certain
1:15
movies has gone sky high. So don't tell me she hasn't made money
1:21
And I think Avenatti is going to bring some of that to the fore and let people know about
1:26
that during the testimony. That's what I believe. I want you to watch this report from Fox News about it though because it gets into a lot
1:33
more detail about why Michael Cohen might be willing to do it
1:36
And the why here, the why is really important. So I want you to check that out and let me know what you think
1:44
Also please remember to like, comment, share and subscribe. I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America

We love you guys. God bless you. Take care everybody. Yep, that's him
1:55
And remember, Madeline Rivera joins us now with more. Madeline. Guys, with just one day to go before opening arguments, former President Trump is blasting
2:03
the trial with a series of new posts on his platform, Truth Social
2:08
He says in part, this scam rush trial taking place in a 95% Democrat area is a plan and
2:14
coordinated witch hunt that could have been brought eight years ago, but everybody passed
2:18
and said they waited and brought it right in the middle of my presidential campaign
2:22
The post comes one day after an appeals court rejected the Trump team's motion to delay
2:27
the trial as they try to move the case out of Manhattan, where they argue folks are too
2:31
biased to give the former president a fair shake. And it appears he is getting some backup from Michael Avenatti, the former attorney of adult
2:38
film star Stormy Daniels. Avenatti is in federal prison in Los Angeles serving a 19 year sentence for extortion
2:45
tax evasion, embezzlement, among other federal crimes. He's been an outspoken critic of Trump, even calling for his indictment in 2018, but he
2:54
tells the New York Post he's been in contact with Trump's attorneys and says he'd be willing
2:58
to testify for the former president. Avenatti says there's no question the trial is politically motivated because they're concerned
3:06
that he may be reelected. If the defendant was anyone other than Donald Trump, this case would not have been brought
3:12
at this time. Also happening this week, the Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on Trump's claims
3:17
of presidential immunity as he fights the federal criminal case, accusing him of conspiring
3:22
to overturn the 2020 election results. Will Kaley and Pete. Thank you
3:27
Thank you. A little bit earlier, we were like, wow, and we'll talk about this. I want to put this question to Will Sharf
3:32
He's an attorney for Donald Trump, but he'll come up on the show at 9 a.m. Eastern time
3:37
How can you trust putting Michael Avenatti on the stand? How could you trust his testimony? I mean, he's been on every side with Donald Trump
3:44
You know, pro anti pro again. And and, you know, by the very nature of his criminal charges, it's not one that inspires trust
3:52
But you point out there is perhaps an incentive that you can trust
3:57
And what is that incentive? Is it maybe a part? It could be. Yeah
4:01
I mean, listen, if Michael Avenatti sitting in a jail cell and he feels the
