NBC News’ Chuck Todd expressed dismay Thursday night that Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti, who’s currently teasing a run for president as a Democrat in 2020, appears to have deliberately misled NBC reporters in order to smear Brett Kavanaugh.
On Thursday, the Senate Judiciary Committee referred Avenatti and his client Julie Swetnick to the Justice Department for criminal investigation for “providing false statements, obstructing congressional investigations, and conspiracy” regarding her allegations against then-Supreme Court nonimee Brett Kavanaugh. Soon after the committee announced the move, NBC published a damning report containing evidence that Avenatti may have manipulated the testimony of a woman he presented to the Senate Judiciary Committee as a corroborating witness to the salacious claims of his client Julie Swetnick:
