What's happening in the political world:

Porn star Stormy Daniels appears to deny affair with Trump
-- Jimmy Kimmel spoke about President Trump with porn actress Stormy Daniels on Tuesday night, or at least he tried to.

The "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" host interviewed Daniels -- whose real name is Stephanie Clifford -- on his ABC show to speak about her alleged affair with Trump in 2006. But Daniels dodged his questions and did not give any substantial answers.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this month that Trump attorney Michael Cohen had arranged a $130,000 payment to Daniels to keep her quiet about an alleged sexual relationship between her and Trump. Cohen, Clifford, and the White House have denied the report.

Kimmel kicked off the interview by telling Daniels that he had a "pretty clear idea" of what he wanted to ask her, but then saw a letter that denied the alleged relationship, which she supposedly signed earlier on Tuesday.

The host questioned the denial, saying that her signature on the letter didn't appear to be the same as Daniels' previous signatures and autographs. He then came out and just asked if she signed it.

"I don't know, did I?" Daniels said to Kimmel. "Doesn't look like my signature, does it?"

Trump overheard saying he'll "100%" release Nunes memo
-- President Trump was overheard telling a lawmaker on Tuesday he "100%" plans to release a controversial memo alleging the FBI abused its surveillance tools.

The president was responding to Rep. Jeff Duncan's entreaty to release the document as he departed a packed House Chamber following his first State of the Union address.

"Mr. President, let's release the memo," Duncan, a South Carolina Republican, was heard asking Trump on a live camera feed from the House floor.

"Don't worry, 100%" Trump responded. "Can you imagine?"

The House Intelligence Committee voted along party lines Monday to publicly release a classified memo written by Republicans alleging FBI abuses in the agency's surveillance.

The memo claims the FBI abused the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act over its use of the opposition research dossier on Trump and Russia as part of the case to obtain a FISA warrant for a former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser.
