Hannity is a very talented and smart man, he will be fine. They are attacking him bc of his support of Trump, pathetic. Or maybe the conspiracy theorists think he's involved in the massive Russian collusion plot to give Trump the presidency and make Putin king of the world! Muhaha
You do know that none of this has anything to do with Mueller and his investigation, right?
Watching Hannity's show on delay
He is such a douche...
Making fun of the other news people taking about his outing as Cohen's 3rd client
He has no shame---he really doesn't
Or else some really strong meds...
Calling Comey "sanctimonious" is little of the pot calling the kettle black---
More than 55 minutes spent on the Comey interview and commercials
Not until 58:46 does Hannity begin to address his own culpability as a LSOS
Blames the media for going crazy with "wild speculation" about his relationship with Cohen
But he calls Cohen President Trump's personal attorney and doesn't mention that Cohen's attorney revealed Hannity was Cohen's 3rd client--that 's all-just 3--
You would think that would be an easy number to remember -- only the THIRD client for Michael Cohen...
He spends time showing people just repeating his name from their discussion/clips
Again he blames the media...just a normal day...
But a dissection of his comment about how Michael Cohen didn't do any work for him or he didn't pay Cohen--also omits the info that Cohen supposedly takes a cut from the settlement--15%--off the top...so Broidy's settlement netted Cohen a lot for a xeroxed NDA agreement previously used by Donald J Trump--but maybe that made it more meaningful to Broidy...
His conversations with Michael Cohen NEVER ROSE TO THE LEVEL that he needed to tell ANYONE he was having those conversations...
And they never involved any third party..
They were about REAL ESTATE---
Ok--if so---now they know where to look...
Maybe he bought a condo in Trump Tower for one of HIS bimbos....
That's very similar to my take away after watching. It also really nailed home all the talking points you hear from so many of the Cult followers, it was like some of C-D, personified. A true echo chamber.
Mueller's investigation was stalling, this raid should provide enough material (non-Russian related) to keep the investigation going for the rest of the year. It was a desperate move but they will stop at nothing with the media on the side providing cover. Maybe throw some more "lying to the FBI" charges around. Comey should get one for himself.
Didn't Hannity claim that he only had a few brief discussions with Cohen about some "real estate deals"? Now, who in the hell goes to a sleazy "fixer" like Cohen for advice on real estate deals?
Apparently Hannity's name was on some of the documents--
I think Cohen likely was helping him launder some money
Maybe he is getting money under the table to promote Trump
Maybe Cohen helped Hannity buy some real estate to silence a girlfriend--
Nothing says "I'm sorry" like a condo at Trump Tower...

So the president's lawyer attacked him with false accusations of being a client because he supports the president. Ok then, glad that's all straightened up.

According to Stormy’s attorney who was on CNN tonight the reason Hannity is listed as a client is because some of the seized documents have Hannity’s name on them whatever that means.
I think it means the entertainment is only beginning.
It's nothing that Hannity is claiming that Cohen is not his lawyer and did no legal work for him, and Cohen's team argued to prevent disclosing Hannity's name as a client, at Hannity's request.
Cohen's team (at the request of Hannity) try to avoid having to divulge his name as a client, yet oddly did name Hannity as the third client of Cohen.
Answer: There is most likely something in Cohen's records that were seized during the execution of the search warrant that shows Cohen represented Hannity in some manner that relates to Trump,and that Trump and Hannity do want this fact made public.
(EDIT) Or may be just Hannity does not want made public - like making someone/some situation go away with a payment.
And they are trying to claim Hannity was a client of Cohen so they can assert attorney-client privilege over that piece of evidence.
Oh, and without Stormy Daniels, all of this probably does not happen.
Yes--but not just her--Michael Avenatti---I don't know how she found him but he is a keeper!
The problem for these guys is that
1--they had to have known Hannity would be outed--
2--they thought the judge would keep the name private-only release to the SDNY--
3--had NO GAMEPLAN if Hannity was outed--
4--the Fox people certainly didn't know that was coming down the pipe
5--this is a problem for Hannity and from Trump IMO because some people will see it as a definite deliberate attempt to cover up a "special relationship"
Hannity has more trouble coming down the pike too from Cohen's investigation...
Thank all the news media that fronted for that attorney!! The real news media that came to bat for the 1st Amendment--vs Hannity lying like a rug about how Cohen was taken advantage of by rogue DOJ...
The attorney who acted for the Press was the only one I read in the Bloomberg article or heard quoted who actually cited CASE LAW
I loved what Judge Wood said when Cohen's attorney tried to use the bar ethics guidelines---
Basically she was asking him if he didn't have any CASE LAW and of course he didn't because there was no legal reason to keep Hannity's name private....
The PUBLIC's NEED TO KNOW supersedes some "prominent" man's desire for privacy...
Classic kill shot...
And she made another comment about them not being prepared--
I just can't wait a year for them to process this documentation...
The premise that Trump had a right to have first crack at privilege review of legally-seized documents was absurd on its face. Judge Wood should have laughed them out of the Courtroom.
BUT Trump's attorney (Henson?) she is apparently thinking the President will have right to review the document that lists the various types of information the SDNY teams confiscated...
Maybe she is hoping for something that won't come to pass but that was the impression I was left with
I thought that was a right that should be held back until after Cohen was charged--for HIS attorneys and the President should get to see NOTHING--
How can Michael Cohen have any executive priviledge about what Trump has done as PRESIDENT??? Executive priviledge doesn't exist before the swearing in...
What did Cohen do for Trump AFTER he became president???
And Trump is supposedly NOT facing criminal charges from this investigation...
Brian Williams just quoted on MSNBC from the 2016 RNC platform: and copied verbatim The next president must restore the public's trust in law enforcement and civil order by first adhering to the rule of law himself.
Of course that was a dig at Obama
But Trump hasn't lived up to that---how can he be said to have lived up to that with his comments on Charlottesville, his impugning of Sessions's recusal from the Russia Investigation, firing Comey to stop the Russia investigation, firing Bharara after he was ready to convict those Russian crooks, the immigration injustice still going on, the pillorying of the FBI and DOJ and accusing them of a vendetta against him, the lack of interest in protecting from another hacked election by Russia, the violation of the emoluments clause in the Constitution, the encouraging of his Cabinet officials to break ethics laws and government standards....
And I could go on...
Trump has done nothing but destroy the public's trust in law enforcement and civil order...

Mueller IS NOT investigating Cohen. For the simple reason that Mueller's job is about Russian interference. So far, there is no reason to suppose that the Cohen circus has anything to do with Russia, which is why Mueller IS NOT investigating it.
I do hope you are up to following TWO DIFFERENT investigations.
It's currently a two-ring circus, with two different ringmasters, but may proof to be a three-ring with a very big top before we're done.
But that orange clown keeps showing up in both rings simultaneously, somehow. Very good trick...
Lots of wild bunnies, too, in addition to lots of elephants and Russian bears. The Greatest Show (presently) on Earth, just about.
Just waiting for the orange clown to get shot out of the cannon, once he falls off that tightrope he's trying to walk.
