This is Why Republicans Can’t Shrug Off the tS ormy Daniels Saga Abstract Stormy Daniels would probably have never been much more than a name in the catalog of porn-movie stars had it not been for Michael Cohen. 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.

    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.
