On Jan. 12, the Wall Street Journal broke the story that Cohen, one of Donald Trump's personal lawyers, had paid Daniels [npr.org] - or arranged for Daniels to be paid -- $130,000 for her silence over an alleged affair she once had with the president. In a political climate jaded by the sexual shenanigans of politicians, many Americans were tempted to ask, "So what?" Because, as they like to say in high-stakes poker, the Daniels affair er presents a whole new opening.

March 29-APRIL 4: Laura Ingraham picked the wrong fight with Parkland high school student David Hogg, and his reply prompted close to 2.4 million related tweets about her in the United States, forcing the Fox News host to take some “vacation” from the network and her Twitter account. President Donald Trump’s attack on Amazon.com and Jeff Bezos, who also owns the Washington Post, was the hottest political topic of the week on Twitter over a million combined tweets.

  • May 4, 2018 the Honorable Trey Gowdy Chairman Committee On
    May 4, 2018 The Honorable Trey Gowdy Chairman Committee on Oversight and Government Reform U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Mr. Chairman: This week, President Donald Trump and his attorney, Rudy Giuliani, made a stunning revelation—Donald Trump, while serving as the sitting President, personally “funneled” money through his attorney, Michael Cohen, disguised as a “retainer” for legal services they admit were never provided, to reimburse a secret payment of $130,000 to Stephanie Clifford, the adult film star known as Stormy Daniels, in exchange for her silence before the election. As a preliminary matter, this revelation appears to directly contradict President Trump’s statements on Air Force One on April 5, 2018, that he knew nothing about this payment.1 Although President Trump and Mr. Giuliani appear to be arguing against potential prosecution for illegal campaign donations, they have now opened up an entirely new legal concern—that the President may have violated federal law when he concealed the payment to Ms. Clifford and his reimbursements for this payment by omitting them from his annual financial disclosure form. Congress passed the Ethics in Government Act in 1978 to require federal officials to publicly disclose financial liabilities that could affect their decision-making on behalf of the American people. The applicable disclosure requirements “include a full and complete statement with respect to ... [t]he identity and category of value of the total liabilities owed to any creditor ... which exceed $10,000 at any time during the preceding calendar year.”2 The Office of Government Ethics, the federal office charged with implementing and overseeing this law, has issued regulations that require federal officials to disclose any liability over $10,000 “owed to any creditor at any time during the reporting period,” as well as the 1 Trump Says He Didn’t Know About Stormy Daniels Payment, CNN (Apr.

    Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies, 2019, 9(4), e201923 On the Same Page? A Content Analysis of President Trump’s 2018 Tweets Regarding Issues Most Relevant to the American People Yolanda Denise Campbell Southern University and A&M College, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA 0000-0002-4279-2283 [email protected] ARTICLE INFO Received: 18 June 2019 Accepted: 31 July 2019 Published: 29 August 2019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.29333/ojcmt/5901 ABSTRACT Through a content analysis of President Donald Trump’s 2018 tweets, results revealed that his most prominent tweets were about the Mueller probe/Russia investigation, a topic which polled as one of the least important issues to the American people in a 2018 poll given by NBC News/Wall Street Journal. Although the results reveal that what the President deemed as most important didn’t match rank wise with the American people, everything he tweeted about was issues included in the 2018 poll—a strong indication of agenda-setting occurring between Trump’s tweets and the minds of the American people. In addition to frequency of tweets, Trump’s stance/tone regarding the poll topics were examined. Those findings showed that during natural disasters and mass shootings, the President offered some moments of consoling to the nation, but they were not absent of malice. Additionally, Trump’s tweets heavily criticized and questioned the validity of the Mueller investigation, bolstered his way of handling the economy, immigration, and trade and criticized any and all whose words and/or actions were in opposition to him and/or his administration.
