Yeah, Sean Hannity is going down

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

This week Fox News host Sean Hannity went on air and encouraged Trump-Russia witnesses to destroy their phones before Special Counsel Robert Mueller could seize them as evidence, and then provided specific instructions for how to destroy the phones. Hannity’s apologists are insisting that he was merely being sarcastic. But when you consider that Hannity is caught up in the Trump-Russia witness scandal himself, there’s no question that he committed felony obstruction of justice on live national television. But that may not even be the reason he goes down.

Sean Hannity got spooked this week when Stormy Daniels filed a lawsuit which alleged that Hannity was in the center of a conspiracy between Michael Cohen and Keith Davidson. Daniels has been using her civil suit to try to expose various criminal plots between Donald Trump and his associates, and she’s succeeded in helping the Feds move closer to indicting and arresting Cohen. So now that Hannity has found himself in the middle of a new Trump-related scandal, he has every reason to worry about being criminally charged. But that’s only the half of it.

Yesterday Robert Mueller indicted former Russian spy Konstantin Kilimnik for obstruction of justice, and conspiracy to commit obstruction of justice. These are the only charges that have been brought against Kilimnik, even though Mueller has been name-checking him as “Person A” in court filings for several months. This makes clear that Mueller is planning to indict everyone who committed obstruction in the Trump-Russia scandal, even if that was their only chargeable crime.

So yeah, Robert Mueller is going to take down Sean Hannity for obstruction of justice. But here’s the twist: Hannity is so panicked at the idea of being targeted by the investigation, he was willing to commit obstruction in front of a million witnesses just to try to hide whatever else he’s done in relation to Trump’s scandals. People don’t act that way unless they’re scared to death of what investigators are going to find out about them. Hannity has all but given away that he’s a mile deep into this scandal.
