An interesting set of information - Stormy Daniels and Coffee

| No Comments

Seems there is a link between a troubled Seattle coffee store and a porn star recently in the news.

First - from The Seattle Times:

Tully’s suspends store operations for lack of coffee
Tully’s Coffee is closing its retail stores temporarily because they lack the coffee to continue serving customers, according to a company memo sent to managers Thursday afternoon.

“At this time we have very minimal coffee left in stores. Our goal is to have Opus, Bostwick, Clyde Hill and New Main operational for (as) long as we can tomorrow, but by end of day today all other retail business is temporarily suspended until coffee deliveries resume,” said an email from Tully’s project director, Krystal Tonning.

A bit more:

Tully’s has shrunk steadily in the past couple years. Late last year, it permanently closed several stores including one on Capitol Hill’s 19th Avenue East, after lawsuits seeking back rent.

The latest setback at Tully’s comes as Michael J. Avenatti, who bought the chain out of bankruptcy in 2013.

How do you run out of coffee in Seattle???

Second - also from The Seattle Times:

Owner of Tully’s Coffee in Seattle is also Stormy Daniels’ legal counsel
The owner of Seattle’s shrinking Tully’s Coffee chain made the rounds of national TV shows Wednesday to discuss his porn-star client Stormy Daniels and her lawsuit to invalidate a $130,000 “hush agreement” about her alleged sexual relationship with President Donald Trump.

Yes, you read that right.

Michael J. Avenatti, who lambasted Trump and his aides Wednesday for trying to keep Daniels quiet, is the same pugnacious lawyer who in 2013 bought the Tully’s Coffee shops in bankruptcy court and has landed in disputes with Boeing, various local landlords, and the powerful Keurig Green Mountain coffee conglomerate that actually owns the Tully’s name.

You say pugnacious - I say a**hole. The guy has to be smart to achieve that level of power so I wonder what he is doing running a Seattle icon into the ground. Money laundering comes to mind. Fitting that he would be an actor in the latest celebrity attack on our President.
