The Fox News host then claimed, with questionable evidence, that by mere virtue of being associated with Trump ones life could now be scoured for potential crimes.
Well, your doors will be kicked down late at night, early in the morning raids, the screws are going to be turned as Judge Ellis said, Hannity decried. And they will ask you to sing or compose, or youll go to jail for crimes that other people have committed and dont go to jail for. (All searches in special counsel Robert Muellers investigation have been executed using search warrants issued by judges.)
Hannity then invoked the name of the numerous felons in Trumps orbit. In addition to Manafort and Cohen, the Fox News primetime star brought up Michael Flynn and George Papadopoulos. Of Flynn, Hannity offered empathy for the former generals service to his country for 30 years. Of Papadopoulos, he lamented, I bet he regrets volunteering for the Trump campaign!
Using selective evidence, the Fox News host then asserted that America now has a two-tiered justice system. According to Hannity, by mere virtue of being a Democrat, Americans can apparently get away with certain crimes. And surprise! it all somehow relates to Hillary Clinton.

Illegal is illegal. We don't let robbers and thieves go free because some other folks are stealing too.
What a whining twit. If you're poor and you shoplift, youre likely to go to jail for stealing. If youre rich and you money launder, the same punishment is only fair. Theft is theft.

You have to be a regular listener/dumbass to understand what he's talking about. It's a stream of inside "jokes", obscure references, and wild ranting.
