Yesterday in a hearing in the USDC-SDNY while arguing to retain control over records seized in the FBI raid of Cohen’s offices Monday, one of Michael Cohen’s lawyers stated that the client (Sean Hannity) had specifically requested that his name not be disclosed:
“The client was contacted over the weekend, and asked that we not disclose their name. And further, that we take an appeal if the Court was going to make that name public.”
A few hours later that very same client, Hannity, appearing on his own television program stated:
“I never asked Michael Cohen to bring this proceeding on my behalf”
Only one of those two statements can be true.
If you are Cohen’s lawyer you’d better fucking pray that Hannity is lying again.

In the previous thread I mentioned Kendrick has a Pulitzer. I brought it up because, predictably, the Right is all verklempt that as Breitbart put it, “Album Demonizing Trump, Fox News” could win such an award.
“Oh my stars and garters! Everyone knows hippity-hop isn’t ‘real’ music. The Pulitzer has really gone downhill since the went commie. Did they give a Pulitzer to Lee Greenwood! Case Closed!”
I’ll bet the comment section is totally rational…
“Nope. You’re going to have to learn ebonics if you want to be able to translate what he said.”
“Pulitzer has become the contagious diahrea award of the illiterate world who specialize in reading stools, following in the skid-marks of the Nobel committee who gave Obama a participation trophy for being present despite being a non-entity and the world’s greatest fraud.”
“A list of all of the organizations and people who sacrificed their creditibility to support democraps is the longest schitler’s-list in the history of mankind.”
“Lol yeah you keep thinking that trash he pumps out is music. It’s guys like kendick and tards like you that listen to it that has killed music.”
“Definition of rapper: Must be black, must play no musical instrument, must steal riffs from people who actually play musical instruments, must insert vulgarity and the n-word into otherwise nursery rhyme grade lyrics and most importantly, must treat the opposite sex as a prostitute or urinal.”

Fun fact that might make Trump look more kindly on her, even if she just ruined Cohen’s life:
Senior United States District Judge Kimba Wood once trained to be a Playboy Bunny.
It’s true.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Just a little fuel for the “rampant speculation”:
Hannity is pretty damn wealthy. His annual income is around $36 million, he owns lots of very high value real estate and his own jet. Since the collapse of many other FOX News stars in recent years his star power and his influence at the network, and in “conservative” news media in general, has shot up. His contract negotiations with FOX News alone are likely to involve teams of dozens of specialist lawyers and accountants. There should be little doubt that Hannity has some very good and very well paid legal representation covering his business and personal dealings. Representing a guy like Hannity is solid trophy for any firm. For Hannity to insist that he has never been a client of Michael Cohen makes a great deal of sense so long as we assume Hannity’s innocence. It’s hard to imagine any innocent reason for Hannity to retain the services of a guy like Cohen. But they obviously run in some overlapping circles and they are by their own admissions “friends”. So again, a perfectly innocent explanation might be that Hannity casually sought Cohen’s advice about an unrelated private matter just as Hannity insists.
But that leaves the puzzle of why Hannity would not only refuse to waive privilege, but would according to Cohen’s lawyers direct them to assert it and appeal any adverse decision*? Remember he has good lawyers. Probably a bunch of them. Friday night and over the weekend as this developed Cohen’s lawyers were in touch with him. And he was certainly in touch with his own lawyers. A guy like Hannity gets his calls returned. By a senior partner. They would have been huddling with him over the weekend and into Monday to help him respond. So if Hannity as he explains just casually pumped Cohen for free legal advice about condos, why the pitched battle? What’s could possibly be so confidential about a pissing match with your condo board?
*Here I believe Cohen’s lawyers. It’s hard to conceive of a strategy that would lead to telling easily disprovable lies in court in front of a federal judge. They are strangely sensitive to lawyers telling lies in front of them.

A Southwest Airlines flight from New York to Dallas has made a successful emergency landing at Philadelphia after an engine exploded in mid-flight at 30,000 feet, blowing out a cabin window and resulting in loss of cabin pressure. A passenger told the media there was “blood all over the place” in the forward cabin. At least one person was taken to a hospital with shrapnel injuries.

“A solid majority rejected Trump, of course.”
And if the last 13 months have taught us nothing, it has taught us that henceforth “Trump” and “conservative” are indistinguishable.
And with dozens of teams of prosecutors circling with subpoenas, Russian agents circling with Novochok, creditors circling with forclosure notices, pole dancers circling with smartphone videos, and wives circling with divorce lawyers that’s about as fatalistic as it gets.

I’ve also seen complaints that Christian Music is ignored by radio and Kendrick winning a Pulitzer is more proof America is tempting God’s wrath.
Kendrick is an outspoken Christian. It’s a time honored tradition in America criticizing art you’ve never actually seen or heard.
First Album, opening track..
“Lord God, I come to you a sinner
And I humbly repent for my sins
I believe that Jesus is Lord
I believe that you raised him from the dead
I will ask that Jesus will come to my life
And be my Lord and Savior
I receive Jesus to take control of my life
And that I may live for him from this day forth
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for saving me with your precious blood
In Jesus’ name, Amen“
“How Much A Dollar Cost” on Butterfly tells the story of encountering a bum at a gas station, quotes exodus, and the narrator telling the bum he owes him nothing and get away and
“You looked at me and said, your potential is bittersweet
I looked at him and said, every nickel is mines to keep
He looked at me and said, know the truth, it’ll set you free
You’re lookin’ at the Messiah, the son of Jehova, the higher power
The choir that spoke the word, the Holy Spirit, the nerve
Of Nazareth, and I’ll tell you just how much a dollar cost
The price of having a spot in Heaven, embrace your loss, I am God!
I wash my hands, I said my grace, what more do you want from me?
Tears of a clown, guess I’m not all what is meant to be
Shades of grey will never change if I condone
Turn this page, help me change, so right my wrongs”

I guess he hasn’t been so strict on the railroads, especially Amtrak. Since he is the CEO of the federal government, then those railway deaths are on him too.
This one really sticks in my craw, “I have been very strict on Commercial Aviation.” How the hell is that? Name one thing he as done with regards to commercial aviation in the US since he took office (other than say he wanted his pilot to be the head of the FAA).
When was the last time that clown took a commercial flight? Yeah, I thought so. Braniff was still flying probably.
