here's an easy way to avoid being "confronted" by Antifa

don;t be a Nazi, dont support people who support Nazis

fairly easy

Antifa isn't a monolith, its a reaction

Sounds like Stormy Daniels just blinked.

... because? I'm, not seeing anything new.

I was just watching the CBS "Nationwide" evening news. Sounds like she is offering something like "Paying Back The Money She Was Initially Paid To Be Partially Released From The N.D.A."

Oh yeah, I saw that this morning. I thought you meant something new new.

Stormy Daniels Offers to Return Payment to End Deal for Her Silence

Copy that.

I just caught that development this afternoon.

Edit: That said, her lawyer is also laying out a "Noon Tuesday" deadline. For whatever that's worth.

Also ...

Republicans find no evidence of collusion or Russian preference for Trump.

Reading this report, the Dem's on the HIC, the joint SIC, and Mueller's side by side should be interesting.

its crap, but she probably fears for her safety

The Idiots supporters are unhinged - moreso towards minorities and women

This offer does absolutely nothing to mitigate any of what you mentioned.

Well, she's got the lawyer. That he went from "Not Valid N.D.A." to "Will Return N.D.A. Hush Money For Release Of N.D.A." doesn't look like he has a jacket pocket full of silver bullets.

It was always a waste of time. She’s a retired porn star who nobody has cared about for ten years trying to get her 15 minutes. The Republicans were always going to over look it and she wasn’t going to say anything we didn’t no besides possibly some sex gossip. The only people wipe vared aren’t in power to do anything. Even the lawyer thing, like everything else, he’s insulated and gets plausible deniability. If anything cheating on his wife with a pornstar makes his fanboys think he’s every bit as cool as they want to believe he is

Why would he ever take the money back? If he does then she has nothing of value. If she has anything of value, if she breaks the NDA he’s getting a lot more than 130k.
