Sean Hannity and the Right have outed themselves as everything they claim the Left is. They're just despicable, lying, hypocritical, fatuous, oafs.

More interesting information about Cohen. https://washingtonmonthly.com/2018/04/1 ... ald-trump/

Where do you think? It's posted.


I had a pretty good feeling it was Breitbart when it referred to Politico as far-left. Even The Hill is probably considered a far-left site when compared to the far-right Breitbart site. Thr National Review is mainstream conservative, and there is an article now up on their site that argues that the outing of Hannity was wrong.

The court’s order that Hannity’s name be disclosed in open court violated longstanding, judicially endorsed standards against identifying uncharged persons in legal proceedings attendant to criminal investigations.

Forget about evidence of wrongdoing. There is not even a suggestion that Hannity is involved in any crimes. He is a longtime friend of Cohen’s. He says they’ve had some informal legal discussions about such matters as real estate — and as any lawyer will tell you, informal discussions with non-lawyer friends are common. Hannity insists, however, that he has never retained Cohen to represent him in any legal matter, and has never paid him or received an invoice from him. There is no public evidence to contradict this, and no suggestion that Cohen has previously represented himself as Hannity’s attorney.

Brackite, wasn't the question asked of Cohen for the judge to rule on deciding if information should be excluded from Cohen's files? Since he was acting as a bag man for two of the clients and had possibly minimal contact with Hannity, that would help to make the ruling easier, right?
