Michael Cohen's 'Mystery' Client Revealed

Cohen appeared in court Monday as part of a federal investigation into his business and financial dealings. The FBI raided his office last week, seizing documents related to payments he made to adult film actress Stephanie Clifford, whose goes by her stage name Stormy Daniels, and another woman Trump has been accused of having a sexual relationship with in the past.

In a court filing Monday morning, Cohen’s lawyers argued that Cohen should not be required to identify his clients. Cohen had at least 10 clients between 2017 and 2018, Reuters reported, and he did “traditional legal tasks” for three of them, including Trump, former Republican National Committee official Elliott Broidy, and a third who asked not to be named.

“The client is a publicly prominent individual,” Steve Ryan, one of Cohen’s lawyers, said before the identity was revealed.

U.S. District Judge Kimba Wood in Manhattan said Cohen’s lawyers did not meet “the standard for an exception that client identity or even fee arrangements must be revealed,” reported the New York Daily News.

“We have been friends a long time,” Hannity told The Wall Street Journal when asked to comment on the courtroom revelation. “I have sought legal advice from Michael

You know TomCal on another post you falsely accused me of only quoting Fox News. I challenged that as being total BS, showed it to be the case and you never responded. At least when applicable I post my sources and also a link to them, which is apparently more than you do. I searched and apparently the information you posted above was extracted from an article posted on the Huffington Post.

You also previously said "Suggestion might be to expand reading and TV to a larger source of viewpoints"


You might want to take your own advice. I think my sources provide a much wider viewpoint that the ones you use. JMO

BeWare....

I always use multiple sources when I post. Wall Street Journal, Baron's, NY Times, AP, UPI, to name a few.

Here's some more sources .....

Daily News - April 15;

" President Trump's personal lawyer Michael Cohen has also been acting as an attorney to one of the commander-in-chief’s favorite talking heads and staunchest supporters — Fox News host Sean Hannity.

Cohen’s lawyers revealed during a hearing in Manhattan Federal Court about the April 9 FBI raids on his office, hotel room and home that he has been the attorney to the conservative commentator for the past two years.

The disclosure only came after some serious teeth pulling by Judge Kimba Wood, who eventually ordered Cohen’s lawyers to cough up the name on the spot.

Before ’fessing up, Cohen’s lawyers tried desperately to keep Hannity’s identity a secret, saying the client didn’t want his name made public. “I’m trying to protect the privacy of that individual, your honor,” Cohen attorney Stephen Ryan told Wood."

April 16 (UPI) --

"President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Michael Cohen also did some legal work for Fox News host Sean Hannity, Cohen revealed at a Monday court hearing.

At issue during the hearing was Cohen's lawyers' request to be the first to read documents seized in a federal raid of their client's property last week citing attorney-client privilege between Cohen and his clients.

On Friday, District Judge Kimba Wood ordered Cohen's lawyers to produce a list of his clients by Monday's hearing so that communications protected by attorney-client privilege could be identified.

Cohen's lawyer's initially refused to identify Hannity as one of three people Cohen represented in an earlier court filing. Instead, only Trump and venture capitalist Eliot Broidy were listed. Broidy resigned as the Republican National Committee's deputy finance chair Friday after it came out that Cohen helped arrange Broidy's $1.6 million payment to a Playboy model in exchange for her silence about the affair."

Bloomberg News; April 15&16

"Judge Says Client No. 3 Must Be Named Publicly "

"Wood heard from various sides on whether Cohen must publicly reveal the identity of Cohen’s third client, and ordered him to do so.

A Cohen lawyer, Stephen Ryan, had said that the third client, whom Cohen initially would not name, told Cohen over the weekend not to allow his name to get out. The person is publicly prominent and Ryan offered instead to put the name in a sealed envelope for the judge, saying the client has said he’ll appeal if Judge Wood orders his name disclosed.

“At this point, no one would want to be associate with the case in that way,” Ryan said. “I can give you the name right now in a sealed envelope and provide it to the court.”

Robert Balin, a lawyer representing the press’s interests in the case, objected to allowing Client 3 to remain anonymous, saying there’s “intense public interest in the issues that are before this court.”

Client No. 3 Is Sean Hannity

"A gasp was heard in the courtroom when a Cohen lawyer disclosed the name of the third client: Sean Hannity."

"Hannity is a Fox News host and has been one of the president’s most vocal on-air defenders. and a critic of Mueller’s probe. Trump often calls Hannity after his Fox News program, according to media reports."

“I understand he doesn’t want his name out there, but that isn’t the law,” Judge Wood said.


...

Beware... would you like me to post more sources???

Is your issue with the Sources or the FACTS????

Tomcal ... this may be hard to comprehend so read it slowly ....

WHO CARES

BTW, suppose you find NO big deal that the judge that is now presiding over Cohen's case was hilLIARy's AG, was found to have hired illegals as housekeepers, was the presiding judge over Soros' marriage ... and, the last one I could care less about, was also a Playboy Bunny for a brief time. No conflict of interest there, is it??

Liberalism - it IS a mental disorder that impacts one's sound and rational judgement

First I never said this post had the facts wrong. I was just curious why you omitted the source or sources after previously challenging the sources I use.

Second , as stated above you started this challenge regarding sources used, so I ask you the same thing. Is your issue with the Sources or the FACTS????

Third, When sources are shown to have the "FACTS" wrong, or misleading by Omission then HELL YES I will challenge the sources. And Yes Fox news has been wrong before as well.

Just some examples http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum14/HTML/008173.html
http://news.grabien.com/story-media-invent-two-fake-trump-scandals-first-day-asia-trump

Fourth, when I believe a Republican is wrong I will say so. Something I believe I have never heard from you regarding a Democrat. I could be wrong on that, but I can't recall a single instance and if there any they must be few and far between. As I have said before no Politician is that perfect.

Sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree. My plethora of sources provide a much wider viewpoint then ones you use.

You challenged me on sources for the above post. I responded with three additional sources, but you seem to still have a problem with that.

I asked if you needed even more sources. You deflected and evaded.

You never questioned content, did you? Just deflected on source.

IMHO... Problem is not sources, you see, it's deflection. You deflect because its content you don't like.

As a courtesy to you, I will endeavor to state source in future posts.

Oh cut us a break Tommy. You deflect all the time, you cherry pick everything and worst of all you never answer questions you don't like. StingRay's question from mos. ago is a perfect example. You try and talk in such a superior tone but it simply doesn't work here. Who cares if Mr. Cohen gave legal advice to Sean Hannity. Benito Obama gives 150 billion to the Islamo Naziz in Iran but you got nuthin to say about that. Why don't you just play with your Prowler and stop lecturing Beware among others cause no one cares what you think. Since you feel you're so intelligent I would think you'd get it but you don't.

I realize you're wild with hatred for Trump and being lodged between Hillary's "butt cheeks" is a fate worse than death but you're gonna have to deal with it...

Tom

You remind me of my ex Wife. You interpret things they way you want them to sound, which has nothing to do with their actual intent or meaning.

I'll give you a response on the content of this post. I could care less if Hannity was a client of Cohen, or even a drinking buddy, best friend etc. I sometimes post things from Hannity but for the most part I don't even care for him that much. I used to listen to him on the radio allot. But I stopped a long time ago. He is full of himself, smug, arrogant, condescending and interrupts his guest with opposing views way too much. And worst of all he repeats the same talking points over and over and over again to monotony . For the most part one of the few good thing about his show (which I never watch) is that it is opposite Rachel Maddow's show on MSNBC competing for ratings in that time slot. She is the liberal equivalent of Hannity(with most if not all of the same traits).

That is why I didn't respond to the content. It had nothing to do with Deflection. Speaking of deflecting and as others have already pointed out. "Don't look for a splinter in your opponents eye until you remove the one in your own eye."

I sometimes watch Tucker Carlson's and Laura Ingraham's shows.(usually recorded so I can fast forward thru commercials and the stuff that's not really relevant)

I really like Bret Baier and Dana Perino on Fox but don't often get to watch them either. Howard Kurtz and Mike Wallace are also usually good.

Actually I prefer to look at Fox online and view the stuff that looks worthy and interesting.

Oh and PS I stopped listening to Rush Limbaugh a long time ago as well for many of the same reasons I stopped listening to Hanitty. You will notice I almost never quote Limbaugh. In fact I couldn't remember the last time I did so I checked. It was October 14,2016. I quoted him a whole three times that year. Twice in 2015 and not once in 2014.
