DCNF: Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley is asking the Department of Justice and FBI to open a second investigation into whether attorney Michael Avenatti made false statements to Congress about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
The referral, submitted Friday, follows one that Grassley issued Thursday against Avenatti and his client Julie Swetnick. The Iowa Republican claimed that Avenatti and Swetnick made inconsistent claims in a sworn declaration accusing Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct in the 1980s.
Swetnick, who submitted the declaration under oath on Sept. 27, said that she saw Kavanaugh drugging girls’ drinks at parties in the early 1980s when he was in high school. She also claimed that gang rapes occurred at the parties and that Kavanaugh may have participated.
In Friday’s referral, Grassley cited a report from NBC News on Thursday that raised questions about a second declaration submitted on Oct. 2 through Avenatti from a woman who purported to back Swetnick’s claims about Kavanaugh.
But Grassley says that, “simply put, the sworn statement Mr. Avenatti provided the Committee on October 2 appears to be an outright fraud.”
“In light of this new information, I am now referring Mr. Avenatti for investigation of additional potential violations of those same laws, stemming from a second declaration he submitted to the Committee that also appears to contain materially false statements,” Grassley wrote to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and FBI Director Christopher Wray. more here

Avenatti has nothing to worry about, Stormy can get him a job pole dancing in his underwear pretty quickly.
This year’s new Halloween monster:
The Anus that grew legs and learned how to walk and talk.
The Creepy Porn Lawyer is going to find that his decision to become a high powered legal commentator and representative of skanky women was a fatal career choice. How many months until his creditors and disgruntled former partners start disbarment proceedings against this Shyster? I can’t wait to see him trying to jibber jaw his way out of what Senator Chuck Grassley has in store for him. Soon, he will be claiming to be a victim of Trump’s collusion with the partisan and corrupt Senate Judiciary Committee.
How is he going to pay for his defense? He already has multi-million dollar judgments against him, and Sloppy Daniels only paid him in non-negotiable BJs!
