    Imagine that...Trump's most reliable cheerleader implicated in the case. Is anyone shocked? I'd be shocked if Trump's biggest apologist was not involved to some degree.

    It would be much worse if anybody actually took Sean Hannity seriously.

    Involved with what? Russian trolls on facebook that made a handful of ads nobody saw or remebered, that totally cost Hillary her landslide victory?

    I’d rather just that, imagine. That’s the beauty of attorney/client privilege. Such information ought to remain privileged.

    They will destroy the country and our legal system if it means getting dirt on trump. If they can't rule the country, they will burn it down so nobody else can.

    Show them a person, and they will find a crime to accuse them of. Collectivist never change. They are just as vile as the collectives before them.

    Sean Hannity is an extremely public figure and has several hours worth of content to fill each day, not to mention his tweets. I would be shocked if he doesn't feel the pressure to talk about the representation publicly - especially considering the optics of the rampant speculation that will occur to try and explain why he so vehemently attacked the Cohen raid.

    Hannity says he's not his lawyer. So the information isn't privileged.

    Same for trump and the Daniel's case. If trump didn't know about the deal, as he says, then there is no lawyer-client protection.

    Whether you’re an average Joe, or the richest person on earth, attorney/client privilege holds the same weight.

    Didn’t you learn that as a 1L?

    I am sure that Sean Hannity's attorney client privilege will be perfectly preserved from being used in any court proceeding...until he feels the pressure to talk about it publicly and then he can toss it down the drain.

    So, now we are going to start outing lawyers clients?

    This is fricking ridiculous and ALL lawyers (who are mostly liberals) should be outraged with ALL of this crap.

    This must be most upsetting for Comey.

    Cohen's book sales will leave his in the dust!

    So why is Cohen trying to hide the fact that Hannity is his mystery client?

    If it exist then yes, but if it does not exist then no.

    According to Hannity, he was not a client of Cohen's and just asked him questions when he needed legal advice so where would there be an attorney/client privilege aspect?

    The Inquisition cannot be stopped now. All legal protections must fall before the onslaught of Mueller's jihad.

    the fascists seem perfectly okay with government storm troopers blitzkrieging lawyers' offices and forcing them to reveal their client lists.

    Brave New World, indeed.

    According to YOUR source, he gave Hannity free advice. Why is this important?
