The controversy surrounding porn star Stormy Daniels deepened yesterday. Stephanie Clifford (AKA Stormy Daniels) was reported to have finally and clearly denied that she had an affair with President Donald Trump.

The Swiss were zeroing in on that money which may have been laundered through Swiss accounts.
