Actress linked to Trump offers to return payment
An adult film actress who said she had sex with President Donald Trump offered Monday to return the $130,000 she was paid for agreeing not to discuss the alleged relationship.
Stormy Daniels — whose real name is Stephanie Clifford — is willing to repay the money she received from attorney Michael Cohen as part of a 2016 agreement, as long as she can speak openly about the situation, according to a copy of a letter from Clifford’s attorney obtained by The Associated Press. The offer is valid until Tuesday afternoon, the letter said.
Also Monday, the advocacy group Common Cause named Trump and Cohen in amended complaints to the Federal Election Commission and the Justice Department that alleged the payment to Clifford violated campaign finance laws.
