It's Sean Hannity who spent all last week whining like a toddler about the raid on Cohen's places without telling anyone he was one of the clients.

He could have 20 clients after Trump. What's important about this 3rd one? Is it related to the Russian connections?

Posted this as a separate OP

but wanted to add here:




Latest tweets frosm Stephen Brown:























Judge Wood: I have faith in the Southern District US Attorney’s office that their integrity is unimpeachable. I think that a taint team is a viable option.



Wood: In terms of perception of fairness – not fairness itself – a special master might have a role here. My interest is in getting this moving efficiently and speedily.



AUSA McKay now talking about how to share Cohen materials with defense teams. "We would be able to do this most efficiently on a rolling basis," he says.



Wood: "Once you’ve seen the documents, I want to hear your proposals for how we can move fast." So both sides will probably be back in court fairly soon.
