 The lawyer for porn star Stormy Daniels said Friday that his client had been "physically threatened" to remain silent over her alleged affair with Donald Trump. 
 
 Lawyer Michael Avenatti, appearing on MSNBC's Morning Joe program and CNN's New Day, did not elaborate on who made the alleged threat or whether it occurred before or after she signed a non-disclosure agreement with Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, not to discuss her alleged relationship with Trump. 
 
 Trump has denied any sexual relationship with Daniels. 
 
 The agreement was signed shortly before the 2016 presidential election. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, received $130,000 from Cohen after signing the deal.

 Asked by CNN's Chris Cuomo about the allegations of a physical threat against Daniels, Avenatti said it was not an allegation but a fact. 
 
 "The fact is that my client was physically threatened to stay silent about what she knew about Donald Trump," he said. 
 
 The lawyer said Daniels would discuss the issue on CBS' 60 Minutes in an already taped interview tentatively scheduled for broadcast March 25. 
 
 Avenatti said Daniels is "going to provide very specific details about what happened here." 
 
 "I am confident that the American people after this interview are going to come away to have little or no doubt that this woman is credible, is telling the truth and knows what she is talking about." 
 
 Here is the earlier exchange between Avenatti and Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski regarding the alleged incident: 
 
 Brzezinksi: "Was she threatened in any way?" 
 
 Avenatti: "Yes." 
 
 Brzezinski: "Was she threatened physical harm? 
 
 Avenatti: "Yes." 
 
 Asked about the report, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Friday that the White House does not condone any threats. 
 
 “Obviously we take the safety and security of any person seriously, certainly would condemn anyone threatening any individual,” she said. 
 
 She declined to address the alleged threats to Daniels and referred reporters to Trump’s outside legal counsel. 
 
 “I have no knowledge of that situation,” she said, adding that she had not spoken to the president about the issue. 
 
 Daniels has claimed the alleged affair with Trump began in 2006. Before signing a non-disclosure agreement, the porn actress gave an interview with In-Touch magazine in 2011 that was not published until two months ago. 
 
 Daniels has filed suit in California to declare the non-disclosure agreement invalid because Cohen has discussed some aspects of it publicly. She has also agreed to return the $130,000. 
 
 Asked why his client is pressing to void the agreement and has begun to speak publicly about the case, Avenatti said Daniels "wants a forum or platform in which she can tell her story, unrestrained and tell the American people not just about the relationship with the president but also the attempts by the president and Mr. Cohen to muzzle her and prevent her from telling her story." 
 
 "There's the act and the coverup," Avenatti told MSNBC. "The American people are going to learn about both in the interview and beyond."

 "We've been approached by six separate women who have claimed to have similar stories to that of my client," Michael Avenatti told CNN's "New Day" Friday morning. "Two of them -- at least two have (nondisclosure agreements). We're in the very early stages of vetting those stories." 
 
 CNN's Chris Cuomo asked, "Do these women, in terms of what their allegations are at this point before you vet them, do they all involve the President of the United States? 
 
 "Yes," Avenatti replied. 
 
 He did not provide the names of any women nor any details of the circumstances of their alleged involvement with Trump. Avenatti also told Cuomo his legal team is "not vouching for these stories" and said it was possible he won't represent the women.

– If you didn't think the Stormy Daniels saga could get more sensational, think again. As President Trump's legal team reportedly tries to halt the adult-film actress's 60 Minutes interview—tentatively scheduled to air March 25, per the Washington Post—a new revelation from her lawyer adds another layer to the drama. USA Today reports that Michael Avenatti made the morning show rounds Friday on CNN and MSNBC, and an exchange between Avenatti and Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski has started quite the buzz. When Brzezinski asked Avenatti if Daniels (real name Stephanie Clifford) had been threatened to keep quiet about the affair she says she had with Trump, and whether those threats had included "physical harm," Avenatti replied in the affirmative to both. The attorney doubled down when asked about it by CNN's Chris Cuomo. "The fact is that my client was physically threatened to stay silent about what she knew about Donald Trump," Avenatti said. He wouldn't say who made the threat, what type of physical harm was broached, or when the threat took place, but he promised "very specific details" from Daniels herself when her 60 Minutes interview airs. "I am confident that the American people after this interview are going to come away to have little or no doubt that this woman is credible," he said, adding that she wants to be "unrestrained" to tell the story of both the affair and the attempts to "muzzle her." Avenatti also told CNN that six more women have approached him (some with NDAs) alleging sexual relationships with Trump, though he says his team is still "vetting" their allegations, per CNN.
