On Monday liberal Judge Kimba Wood, the federal judge overseeing the Cohen-Trump case, released the name of Trump attorney Michael Cohen’s alleged third client – Sean Hannity.
This same federal judge who just rejected Trump’s request for a temporary restraining order and who outed Sean Hannity publicly at the hearing officiated George Soros’ wedding in 2013.
Sean Hannity immediately responded to the reports that Michael Cohen was his attorney.
Michael Cohen has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees. I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective.

Hannity explained on his show that the discussions were mostly focused on legal questions regarding real estate.
Now this…
An attorney for far left New York Times and CNN convinced Judge Kimba Wood to publicly name Sean Hannity at the hearing.
Twitchy reported:
According to reports from inside the courtroom, Judge Kimba Wood was ready to allow Michael Cohen to submit the name of his 3rd client — who we now know is Sean Hannity — under seal, but an attorney for CNN and the New York Times convinced her otherwise.
From Natasha Bertrand, The Atlantic:
A note about this: Judge Wood was prepared to let Ryan give her the name of Cohen’s third client under seal. At that point, an attorney for the NYT and CNN approached the podium and convinced her that the press (&public) should know. She agreed. He played pivotal role here. https://t.co/nbJUaAw4Ys

The attorney’s name is Robert Balin.
Robert Balin is the attorney’s name. Thanks everyone who commented with it!

So liberal attorneys are now colluding with liberal judges against conservatives.
Good to know.
