An unnamed client of Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's longtime personal attorney, is Fox News host Sean Hannity.
The revelation came after U.S. District Court judge Kimba Wood ordered Cohen to disclose the name in a court hearing on Monday.
In an earlier court filing Monday morning, lawyers for Cohen refused to identify the recent client — one of three people Cohen represented between 2017 and 2018. The lawyers also refused to identify the names of other past clients.
Lawyers for Cohen — whose business records were seized by FBI agents April 9 — said the then-unnamed client had told Cohen not to disclose his name and that they believed Cohen had a duty not to disclose it.
They also said that if Cohen's clients, other than Trump, were publicly revealed, it is "likely to be embarrassing or detrimental to the client."

President Trump could NOT drain the swamp, he thought he could but its just too massive..look around..the ones bitching about Russia Russia Russia, I got news for them, we ARE in Russia except its even worse
Bet she was more than that for Bill, being a bunny in all
Yeah.
Hannity doesn’t seem worried.
Hate Hannity all you want but have the intellectual, and moral, honesty to stand up for the rule of law rather then joint the clown show who wants to abandon it for to push their persoanl political agenda.
I would think a morphing libertarian would be concerned about the abuse of judicial power in ordering Cohen to name his clients for no reason. What exactly are you morphing into?
Why is this news, am I missing something here?
Same here seems like a big nothing burger to me all I can say is “So what”.
No he should not. That is a pathetic attempt to twist your personal dislike for Hannity into an excuse to attack him.
Pathetic and sad on your part.
first be honest in your response. i don’t hate hannity And you can’t find a shred of evidence in any pf my posts today or before. you made that up in an obvious attempt to try to discredit my valid point.
I is not about standing up for the rule of law. I do that more than anyone. look at my recent exchanges on the FBI etc.
Hannity is responsible for what Hannity does. He missed it or made a mistake and nothing you say negates it.
I sugget=st we are addressing one point. Now you hold my feet to the fore when i have addressed that on enter threads in defense of the indefensible. His behavior in not disclosing is unethical and your blind defense is transparent..
Honestly can’t figure it out..Sean Hannity is a PRIVATE CITIZEN..he got legal advice from Michael Cohen..so what is the connection here, did Sean Hannity collude with Russia too LOL this whole thing is a giant FARCE. People hire lawyers, I know breaking news!!
Why he's not a reporter or an editor. He's just a guy with an opinion and a show.
Given what Cohen specialized in the obvious question is what bimbo did Cohen pay off for Hannity.
when is Mueller going to raid Perkins-Coie about the dossier etc?
SO F**KING WHAT!
“President Trump could NOT drain the swamp, he thought he could but its just too massive..look around.”
He’s just getting started. It has been tough so far, but I’m not throwing in the towel just yet. It is going to be an interesting summer. They have to approve a new budget in September with midterms in November. I think things are likely to break loose shortly before the election. Until then just more constant Trump-hate from the media. When Trump needs us he can call us to arms with a tweet. And we will show up.
Hannity has already stated that no 3rd party was involved.
That he just asked Cohen for some legal advice.
There seems to be a concerted effort to criminalize anyone that opposes the Leftist agenda.
It’s lamented on this board that there’s different rules for Democrats and Republicans; how long before that difference leads to mass arrests and incarceration?
he is covering the story day after day. No matter what he calls himself he is personally connected to the attorney and he should disclose to the audience. If liberal did this .we’d all be typing in capital letters.
