    I’m pretty sure paying for sex is a crime, at least in most places in the U.S.

      He didn’t pay her for sex. He pressured her into it. He paid her not to tell anyone until after the election, but hid the payments as compensation for his personal attorney while in office. He’s being charged with falsifying business records.

        It’s true that sex wasn’t paid for. The role of pressure in this case is complicated.

        If anyone is curious to read Daniels’ own words on this, check out the pdf court transcripts for May 7th and May 9th.

        The transcripts are long, but interesting, and worth reading if you have a few hours. As a normie, I was only interested in the sex stuff. The facts surrounding documents seem pretty clear.
