    And no, I’m not going to make fun of you again for incorrectly applying the Pelosi quote.

    As far as we know there were no threats to his life , which is what Trump said

    Best I can tell, Hawk is correct on the technicality and the limited import of the FOIA here (which, as a process-oriented Pharisee, I sympathize with) but 57 is right on the spirit of the matter of credible "death threats" as a justification for Pruitt's fantastic security requests being unfounded.

    I think we can all agree that Trump is a liar and any sentence out of his mouth or on his Twitter feed is likely false.

    Hannity, a staunch Trump supporter, has bashed the FBI’s raid on Cohen’s office, though hadn’t previously disclosed his relationship with the lawyer

    You're either a client or you're not. I'm assuming he's going with "not"?

    When everyone is a big fat liar, it's hard to parse who's lying in a given situation. Brilliant strategy, and one that very much suits the moment.

    Hannity made further comments that appear to be somewhat inconsistent with the statement he issued through Fox News. He said that he might have paid Cohen a small fee, after all, and said he did not merely assume that their conversations were privileged but rather sought assurances.

    “I might have handed him 10 bucks [and said,] 'I definitely want your attorney-client privilege on this,'" Hannity said on the radio. “Something like that. I requested that privilege with him when I would ask him, 'Well, this just came up. What do you think about this? What do you think about that?'”

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.979cab23e3ae

    Am I missing something? What purpose does it serve to claim Hannity as a client? Why would he and Cohen consider such a claim worth the embarassment and possible loss of job/income?

    LOL at Hannity being a client of Michael Cohen. Complains about "liberal media bias" but fails to disclose the personal lawyer of the President of the United States is also his lawyer. Just an amazingly hilarious development. Guess Hannity is taking that "state run media" to heart.

    I don't see how there is an implicit bias in having the same attorney.

    The weird thing is Hannity says Cohen didn't really do any work for him other than some real estate advice and was maybe billed for 10 bucks. That doesn't seem to be worth the embarasment of being named a client or taking the risk of losing job or income.

    Two possibilities come to mind:

    1) there is something they would prefer not get out...hence the appeal to attorney-client privilege

    2) they are a couple clowns

    anything else?
