NEXT: A new Playboy model just revealed her affair with Trump and she has photos to prove it


.@Comey: “A person who sees moral equivalence in Charlottesville, who talks about and treats women like they're pieces of meat, who lies constantly about matters big and small...that person's not fit to be president of the United States, on moral grounds.”

Basically Every Time Hannity Has Defended Michael Cohen on His Show Since the FBI Raid


The legal battle over the documents the FBI seized from President Trump's personal attorney last week led to a surprising revelation about Michael Cohen's list of clients.


"By any standards of any normal newsroom, the Cohen-Hannity relationship is a glaring conflict of interest. Fox is not a normal newsroom. And Hannity's viewers are not typical news viewers..."


"For years, Mr. Cohen has acted like he is above the law," Stormy Daniels says amid legal battle over Michael Cohen's seized materials.


Shep Smith: "Hannity's producers are working to contact him...a lot of people here know his number, so we'll get on that in just a second."


On Fox News, Juan Williams weighs in on Hannity: "The question for me is why Sean didn't disclose this earlier."


An important point: Comey says "collusion" is not the issue. The real question, he points out, is whether Trump associates were aiding and abetting the Russian attack on the 2016 election.


Judge denies Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's request for temporary restraining order


Stormy Daniels lawyer Michael Avenatti: "Depending on what is contained within those documents, I think there is significant danger to the president. The president trusted Mr. Cohen as his fixer for years...and I think the chickens are about to come home to roost."


Sean Hannity spent last week ranting about the Cohen raid. He didn’t mention he’s Cohen’s client.


The @CommonsCMS committee just published audio tapes of Cambridge Analytica and LeaveEU directors discussing 'clever' Nazi propaganda tactics... yep, Nazis...


"Michael Cohen is radioactive, and anybody that was associated with him in the last 20 to 30 years should be very, very concerned. What we witnessed earlier in the hearing with the disclosure relating to Sean Hannity proved my point."

Hannity Tweets Denial


Watch Fox News report on Michael Cohen representing Sean Hannity


UPDATE: Hannity's radio show, scheduled to start at 3PM is a train wreck. First 10 mins was music and clips of the Comey interview. Then Hannity came on and said they'd continue to play the Comey interview while he though about whether to say something


Now why would @seanhannity have a Russian mob & Kremlin connected lawyer who’s under criminal investigation, and fail to mention it while covering (aka propagandizing) Cohen’s FBI raid? You know, considering Cohen doesn’t do much (if any) legal work.
