(COMBO) This combination of file pictures created on March 27, 2018 shows US President Donald Trump speaking at The Generation Next event, a White House Forum featuring millennial voters and administration officials on March 22, 2018, in Washington, DC, and actress Stephanie Clifford, who uses the stage name Stormy Daniels, arriving to perform at the Solid Gold Fort Lauderdale strip club on March 9, 2018 in Pompano Beach, Florida. - Court documents released July 18, 2019 closely tied President Donald Trump and his former top aide Hope Hicks to hush money paid to a porn actress ahead of the 2016 election.But a New York judge said the investigation into the payment was closed, making it likely that neither the president nor anyone but his former lawyer Michael Cohen will be punished for them.The FBI warrant requests released Thursday show the law enforcement agency believed Trump and Hicks were intimately involved in arranging the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels -- the screen name for Stephanie Clifford.
