House Dems Leaning Against Calling Stormy Daniels as a Witness
House Democrats are expanding their impeachment investigation to include a stepped-up probe into whether President Trump broke the law through alleged involvement in a payment scheme to silence two women from revealing their affairs with him before the 2016 election.
But congressional investigators are leaning toward not calling for testimony the would-be star witness in that probe: Stormy Daniels.
Daniels, the former porn star who was paid $130,000 to stay silent about her alleged 2006 affair with Trump in the run-up to the 2016 election, said on Sept. 3 that she would be willing to testify before Congress. “I have no fear of being under oath,” she tweeted.
