Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) said Monday that Fox News should fire Sean Hannity following the revelation that he is a client of President Trump’s personal attorney, Michael Cohen.
Hannity has frequently covered stories about Cohen — including the FBI raids on the New York lawyer's home, hotel room and office last week — without revealing his own connection.
“I think he is so into this like a pig in the mud he can’t get out of it. And I think he deserves to be fired. His word can never again be trusted,” Connolly said on CNN. Connolly said Hannity’s involvement with Cohen represents a conflict of interest, calling it “a big stain on Hannity and Fox News.”
He also hit Hannity for spreading conspiracy theories about former President Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and slain Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich.
Cohen’s attorney revealed earlier Monday that Hannity is the previously unnamed third client for whom Cohen has done legal work. The revelation came during a hearing connected to the FBI raids.
Cohen's attorney revealed Hannity's identity as they sought to argue they should be able to review materials seized in the raid before federal prosecutors, so that they can determine what documents are protected by attorney–client privilege.

Not saying it's true - but that's what some say...
Liberals grasp every inane straw they can. Always looking for corruption, except when it involves Democrats. I don’t recall Rep. Connolly calling for any repercussions for Hillary, Obama, Lynch, Comey, Holder, and the rest of the crooks.
x2 on what you said!!!
I hear Lucille and Sergeant Donowitz want to interview Gerky Communistlly...
If POTUS doesn’t soon drop the hammer, and start taking out every damn one of these commies, the Republic will be beyond repair.
Extreme views held by such as gerry connolly (d-va.), illustrate why left-wing nuts should never again be in power.
Sessions is a Statist.
Personal Liberty is not in his wheelhouse.
sure right after ABC fires for Clinton spokesperson Stephanopolous
So...did he get a tingle up his leg?
Connolly is not that much of a dumb f###, is he? I’ve been watching him from across the river in Maryland for a couple decades and this is way beyond his usual stupid. I just checked Wiki and he has no law degree, just an MPA.
Connolly, go f**k yourself.
That is all.
This squirrel should resign just because he’s of the same party of some really offensive and stupid people.
Sean is going to hammer home all the corruption of the previous admin, f bi, and ci a. He will either address this in the opening monologue or wait until the end.
That way everyone has to sit there and listen to Sara Carter, et al and all of details of what is happening with the OIG report.
Brilliant. His rating will increase and he will pound the left with the truth about O’s corrupt administration. YES!
Did he object when Ed Schultz took millions from the unions?
LOL!
Into what? Lyncher Mueller has found anything! Just milking taxpayers for all the money and benefits he can get.
Wow.
Hannity is one of the victims here, and this person calls for him to be fired?
This is fascist crazy stuff. But that is what Democrats are these days.
Which is why many conservatives I know refuse to speak in public about them, and more than a few will put dem election signs in the front lawn.
I guess my give a darn is running out.
