No way 3 and 2 are 1st and 2nd.

4, 1, 2, 3, 5 is the correct sequence.

If it was help with a living trust or something (lol) why would he be concerned with it becoming public? Really, if there was nothing abnormal Hannity would have spent ample airtime spouting off about Cohen being such an upstanding and competent lawyer he even used him himself.

What on earth is going on?

I listened to Hannity's show until he issued his statement. You all owe me dearly. I need a shower.

"Michael never represented me in any matter, I never retained him in the traditional sense as retaining a lawyer, I never received an invoice from Michael, I never paid legal fees to Michael, but I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective. And I assume that those conversations were attorney-client confidential."

"Not one of any issue I ever dealt with Michael Cohen on ever, ever involved a matter between me and any third party. Now, I have eight attorneys that I use for varying things in my life, and in this particular case, I like to have people I can run questions by."

He claimed attorney-client privilege was established by saying, "Attorney-client?" and getting an affirmative response. Doesn't this have to be established by PAYING the attorney?

A few minutes later he says he probably gave him $10 once or something. He went on to opine about the death of truth and the demise of attorney-client privilege.

Tonight on Hannity, a car crash compilation.

Hannity: “All I did was to run “hypotheticals” regarding murdered hookers by Michael.”

This is all such a hilarious reflection of the Trump orbit and the people they associate with. Hannity has stupid amounts of money and could easily get an extremely competent lawyer for any reason, but apparently he really does worship Donald Trump and values his personal recommendations for this dip**** lawyer who's not particularly good at his job, but does come with the priceless qualification that Donald Trump vouched for him.

RIS = Russian Intelligence Service?

The first Google result is Roosevelt Intermediate School, which is doubtful. Then again, he did use Cohen as his lawyer...

Not really true in this specific matter. Spears & Imes is one of the top boutique white-collar crime firms. That said, they are likely in a tough spot in the matter, so making some less than ideal arguments, given their weak hand.

A thing of beauty.

From October regarding first Mueller indictments:

Man I hope I can drink myself into a stupor.

Every day there's a new hey look Pruitt found a new way to rip everybody off and it's just totally buried b/c there's a bombshell every god damn day.

Even Saul Goodman wanted $5 to make the relationship official. I assume some panicked lawyer rushed in after the first statement to make the revision. It seems like claiming you never had an attorney-client relationship with your attorney is on the same level as claiming you were never a party to an NDA that you're trying to enforce.
