As Twitchy told you, over the weekend, Michael Avenatti claimed to “represent a woman with credible information regarding Judge Kavanaugh and Mark Judge.” According to Avenatti, said woman is not Deborah Ramirez. In fact, said woman may not have any connection whatsoever to Brett Kavanaugh.
I’m not saying that Michael Avanetti got totally owned by a 4chan prank. But if he did, and if he also gets disciplined or even disbarred for falsely maligning a federal judge, or even prosecuted for sending false or misleading information to the Judiciary Committee… pic.twitter.com/gNi4TUtmmS

What happened? I missed it

Rumors are flying that his Kavanaugh “client” turned out to be a 4chan prankster. He’s locked his Twitter account.
— Ken Gardner (@KenGardner11) September 25, 2018
So, is this why he locked his account?
It's because he was embarrassed by a 4Chan prank. The "woman" who had him blaring about a new Kavanaugh accuser and Rape Gangs was the girlfriend of a 4Chan guy. When she went dark, he realized his big reveal was a hoax and he was gonna look like a punk.

I've never wanted something in my whole life to be true as much as I want Avenatti getting 4Chan pranked to be true.

I want this so bad it hurts.

I swear I'm going to laugh for days if this turns out to be the case. https://t.co/PlovKrc1JO

If 4chan has humiliated Avenatti into silence for the duration, they were the heroes we needed, if not the heroes we deserved.

If Avenatti actually got pranked by 4Chan, my entire year has been madehttps://t.co/ZNwADUaCQJ pic.twitter.com/4gku9vtZ82

We can dream. Of course, it’s also important to remember who we might be dealing with here.
Hi hello yes since we are all fresh off of Zillow Twitter maybe let’s stay away from 4Chan Twitter until there is some (any) evidence for it. Thanks.

My take on the Avenatti-4Chan thing is to remind you about things being too good to be true.
— Varad Mehta (@varadmehta) September 25, 2018
a 4channer punking Avenatti surely wouldn't punk the entire Internet over punking Avenatti.
— Cuffy (@CuffyMeh) September 25, 2018
Heh.
Look: that rumor we're all reading about? There is a 99.999999999% chance it's not true. Don't kid yourselves.
But we all *want* it to be true.

So so much. https://t.co/FfrChDVyJ1

Well anyway, one thing’s for sure:
Avenatti would deserve it. https://t.co/IxVMCa5MB7
— Pradheep J. Shanker, M.D., M.S. (@Neoavatara) September 25, 2018
Hard to argue with that.
So… if Avenatti did get punked by 4chan, that should be the end of his presidential ambitions and media outlets that still have him on to comment on anything are not serious organizations worthy of respect.

Are you kidding?
HE'S NOW THE FRONTRUNNER! https://t.co/vrMOUG52HH
