This is just great. Can’t make up better stuff this

quote:

One was Mr Trump. Another was a Republican fundraiser who admitted to paying a former Playboy model after she became pregnant during their affair. The third client, Mr Cohen said, had refused to give him permission to be publicly named. But Judge Kimba Wood made one of the lawyers identify Hannity on Monday.

Don’t shoot the messenger, but Hannity sounds like a different guy on his radio show right now. I listen almost daily and you can tell his mind is elsewhere. Sounds deflated.

He may be a former client and privilege would only extend to the original matter



This I can agree with.

nah...I don't listen often, but i listened today.

they were basically trying to laugh it off at how desperate the media is to get anyone on the GOP side of the isle.

Hannity told the media the extent of his relationship with Cohen...

Hannity said he has 8 attorney's...Cohen isn't one of them...but has know Cohen for long long long time and consults with him from time to time.

I don’t know. I heard about two or three moments that were out of character. I wouldn’t say “scared”, more like “baffled”.

Yep.

And as a result, we ended up with Big Bad Jan.

Media is reporting that Cohen had 3 clients in 17...and hannity was one of the three

Hannity said, him being mentioned means Cohen is being transparent ....because if was mentioned by mere phone calls and emails, then he is being open with them...

Hannity maintains he never officially hired Cohen to deal with anything 3rd party...

advice only

as shady as the media is, I am sticking with Hannity all the way on this one

The porn 'star' goes to court and the judge is an ex playmate.

From your link:

quote:

In 1993 President Bill Clinton nominated her to become the first female Attorney General. But she withdrew from the nomination after the White House learned she had hired an undocumented immigrant as a babysitter.



She also employed 2 illegal housekeepers.

Another hand picked judge who sides with your politics??

Nah...just coincidence.

Makes you wonder why he requested Cohen not release his name as a client then, if we're to believe that actually happened.

at the end of the day, I wouldn't want my name dragged on TV either....

the media is going to spin speculation Cohen hid a Porn Ring for Hannity he started in 1991 with Rush Limbaugh...

The media is largely irrelevant to this story, at least now.

Cohen said Hannity is a client. Hannity appears to say this isn't true.

Hannity already addressed this on radio today.

a big fat nothing burger...never actually hired Cohen to do anything...admitted he called him several times to get advice over the years...

never a deposit, never a contract but did ask "client/attorney privilege be taken in his conversations"

that's it
It was probably legal advice about Hannity and Seth Rich or losing sponsors.

The news saying Cohen doesn't get Atty/client priv because he was barely a lawyer is BS. (If you are the lawyer of a billionaire you don't need any other clients)

I understand that this raid was BS, but can we agree that it is safe say that everyone even remotely involved with Cohen should be very worried. You do not have to be a criminal to go down. Federal law is such a shakedown.

Cohen, or his attorneys, in court...to the judge citing the client's request.

But he's not a client, remember? Why would his name come up if he's not a client?

He's either a client, or he's trying to city attorney-client privilege to hide something from the FBI. Remember, this hearing is about what the FBI can look at of Cohen's seized property.

Michael Cohen has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees. I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective.

In response to some wild speculation, let me make clear that I did not ask Michael Cohen to bring this proceeding on my behalf, I have no personal interest in this proceeding, and, in fact, asked that my de minimis discussions with Michael Cohen,
