Fwd: {UAH} Playboy model who says she slept with Donald Trump sues to end non-disclosure

P.s. - correction of a typo error omission

I saw the lawyer of Snowden, Ben Wizman trying 
to explain how civil iberties do not have to be stiffled...

(The D.Trump sx. scandals may be negligible as some 
here are saying, compared to the roaring nuclear threats
but the issue of threats to civil liberties is even bigger!)

- don't U think?


---------- Forwarded message ----------

Lawyers,

what is gagging order really about. Some justice systems it
seems, enforce gagging orders and silence truths on an issue
- supposedly in the hon. interest of safeguarding due process.

Is this not how people end up with witch doctors in the bushes
in search of justice. I saw the lawyer Snowden, Ben Wizman 
trying to explain how civil iberties do not have to be stiffled -
esp. if it does not harm and is in the best interest of the l public.

What sayeth U?

Another prostitute goes to  court to lift a gagging agreement she  was forced  to sign- she was  paid her only $150,000 for her silence- I think she now smells blood- like Stormy Daniels. She could easily make $10 million from Exclusive Deals and Special Appearances On Chat Shows.

Playboy model who claims she slept with Trump says she wants out of nondisclosure agreement where she took $150,000 and sues National Enquirer to cancel it

  • She claims the first time they had sex, he had tried to offer her cash
  • The 1998 Playmate of the Year says she would visit him at the famous Beverly Hills Hotel, where he would always ordered steak and mashed potatoes
  • American Media Inc, which owns the National Enquirer, paid McDougal $150,000 for the story but decided not to run it, the suit claims
  • But the company didn't intend to publish McDougal's story, a source said 
  • Her suit claims the agreement is void due to 'fraud and illegality'
  • American Media Inc denied hiding damaging stories about GOP nominee 
  • The Trump campaign has called affair allegations 'totally untrue'
  • Earlier this month, porn star Stormy Daniels filed suit in the same court to get relief from a non-disclosure agreement that gave her a $130,000 payment 
  • The suit calls the agreement an 'illegal in-kind corporate donation from AMI to Trump's campaign 

Karen McDougal, a Playboy Playmate who claims that she had a year-long affair with President Donald Trump, is suing to declare a non-disclosure agreement she signed 'void.'

McDougal, who says she met Trump at a 2006 party at the Playboy Mansion and had a 10-month affair with him, claims in the suit she was 'pressured' into signing the deal by American Media Inc. and by her own lawyer.

The suit, reported by the New York Times, claims the company, which publishes the National Enquirer, worked 'secretly' with Trump's personal lawyer Michael Cohen to engineer the agreement.

Under the deal, she got a $150,00 payment – shared with her lawyers – and what she believed to be the promise of magazine cover stories and fitness columns. However the agreement barred her from discussing any relationship with Trump.

Her suit argues the that the agreement is 'void due to both fraud and illegality,' and seeks to restore her ability to talk about the alleged affair.

'The agreement is contrary to the basic principles of law, fairness, and the public interest,' it maintains.

Earlier this month, porn star Stormy Daniels filed suit in the same court to get relief from a non-disclosure agreement that gave her a $130,000 payment. 

Daniels signed her NDA with Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, referred to in the McDougal suit as Trump's 'personal fixer.'

As the suit puts it, 'For several years, Ms. McDougal led a "Hollywood" life, attending events and parties as both honored guest and hostess. During that time, Ms. McDougal had a 10-month relationship with Mr. Trump.'

After another former Playboy playmate Carrie Stevens revealed the relationship on Twitter days after Trump got the GOP nomination, McDougal decided she did not want to 'sit back and wait to become tabloid fodder.' 

'If the story was going to become national news, she wanted to be the one to tell it to ensure that the account was accurate and not lurid grist for the tabloid mill,' according to the suit.

She hired attorney Keith Davidson, who according to the suit was 'working closely with representatives for Mr. Trump while pretending to advocate on her behalf.'

The suit then argues that McDougal was involved in a 'catch and kill' arrangement, where outlets sometimes buy a story for the purpose of killing it.

American Media Inc denied hiding damaging stories about GOP nominee. 

The suit say Davidson told his client that the National Enquirer would not publish the story because AMI's owner, David Pecker, is 'close personal friends with Mr. Trump.'

What followed was the $150,000 deal, where her lawyers got to keep 45 per cent. 

The suit, filed by her new legal team, argues that AMI and Davidson 'failed to tell Ms. McDougal that the contract's fine print did not actually obligate AMI' to run fitness columns by her or put her on magazine covers. 

She was 'pressured' into signing it, according to her suit.

She hired a pro bono attorney, Ted Boutros, and negotiated an amendment to her August 2016 non-disclosure agreement allowing her to respond to 'legitimate press inquiries' about her alleged relationship. But the suit calls it 'another trick to designed to silence her.'

The suit also says that AMI hired a PR-team who ghost-wrote her responses, including to the New Yorker. Among the responses they fed her was one saying, 'I don't really like to talk about things other than my interests and passions – and that's health, wellness, etc., etc.!!'

Another response read: 'I have no desire in discussing anything that is not directly tied to my passions of beauty and health, so thank you for asking, but I see no need to comment on rumors and speculation.'

The lawsuit comes weeks after McDougaltold The New Yorker of details about how she and President Trump met back in 2006 at a party that was hosted by Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion.

President Trump took an immediate liking to McDougal she later wrote in her journal, noting that one of the magazine's mrketing executives joked: 'Wow, he was all over you - I think you could be his next wife.' 

His third wife Melania was back in New York with the couple's three-month old Barron at the time, and shortly after the party McDougal was invited to have dinner with President Trump in his private bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

That encounter was also detailed in her journal, with McDougal writing that it culminated with the pair's first sexual encounter.

When they were done, Trump offered to give McDougal money.

'He offered me money,' wrote McDougal in her journal. 

'I looked at him (+ felt sad) + said, "No thanks - I'm not 'that girl." I slept w/you because I like you - NOT for money'"- He told me "you are special."'

McDougal, who was the Playmate of the Month for December 1997 and later Playmate of the Year for 1998, said she was drawn to Trump's personality above all else.

'I was so nervous! I was into his intelligence + charm. Such a polite man,' she wrote in her journal. 

McDougal began to see Trump whenever he was in Los Angeles, which at the time was quite often due to his work on The Apprentice.

It would always be at the same bungalow and President Trump would always have the same meal said McDougal, who was also quite impressed by the fact that he never drank alcohol.

The affair soon moved out of the bungalow and into the real world however, with McDougal claiming she met Trump's children, got a private tour of his New York City residence and began flying around the country so the two could be together.

The affair would ultimately last 10 months, and it would be 10 years after it ended that McDougal found herself silenced after signing a $150,000 deal with media company AMI, which is owned by President Trump's close friend David Pecker.

President Trump has denied the affair through a spokesperson, with the White House stating: 'This is an old story that is just more fake news. The President says he never had a relationship with McDougal.'
