The indictment and arrest, and conviction of Donald Trump’s longtime friend, adviser, and confidant, Roger Stone was a serious blow to the president and could well wind up being a defining moment in the investigations being conducted by various jurisdictions.

But there’s another well-known Trump acolyte who’s also threatened by the arrest of Stone: Fox News host Sean Hannity.

Hannity, it should be noted, is friends with Roger Stone and also hired Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, to do legal work for him. Hannity is also an unofficial adviser to Trump. That’s three degrees of association with the larger Russia conspiracy, and it suggests Mueller may indict Hannity as well.

As Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Kurt Eichenwald pointed out on Twitter several months ago, Hannity is tightly woven into the very fabric of the Russian attack on the last presidential election:

1. As I continue to research the spread of info described in the Stone indictment, it has become clear that @FoxNews needs to explain what role @seanhannity – Cohen's mystery client – had to do with the Russian conspiracy. And why the hell he is still on the air. The key date…

2…is August 2, 2016, when Corsi sent an email to Stone. In that email, Corsi says that Assange is planning a document dump on October 2 to cause the most damage possible. (Do you Wikileaks fans FINALLY understand what this fraud is?) In preparation of that, Corsi says that….

3…'That appears to be the game hackers are now about. Would not hurt to start suggesting HRC old, memory bad, has stroke – neither he nor she well. I expect that much of next dump focus…" We do not need any further evidence of collusion – THIS is it. These bastards are….

4…willing to undermine democracy with lies. Drudge picks it up in a few days. Then, EIGHT days after this conspiracy involving Corsi, Stone, Russian hackers, Assange, frigging @seanhannity jumps into the mix. Hillary makes a goofy head movement when someone shoves a mike in….

5…her face. (A mic, not a mike) No one looking at that could see it as anything but what it was – physical humor. But, building on Drudge's "she needs to be helped up the stairs" lie, @seanhannity jumps all over this stupid movement to proclaim – JUST LIKE CORSI URGED -…

6….That Hillary had a neurological problem. On August 10, eight days after the "lie about her health" email, Hannity says on her show after showing the goofy head movement, "“This looks like violent, out of control movements on her part.” He then goes on to say "seizures…

14…where @FoxNews can say anything it wants. and then when caught in its lies, say "oh, we're just a talk show."

Fox, Breitbart and the rest of these bastards are knowing or unknowing participants in a fraud perpetuated by Russian hackers. Nothing will stop them, I know….

The reference to “Corsi” is Jerome Corsi, a conspiracy theorist and all-around bizarre wing nut who has trafficked in outrageous lies for decades and once worked for the Alex Jones outfit, InfoWars. Corsi was one of the originators of the “birther” lie suggesting that Barack Obama wasn’t really an American citizen.

Corsi is also a close associate of Roger Stone. If either of them shared disinformation with Hannity, who then passed it along in coordination with Russian operatives, that makes Hannity part of a larger conspiracy to influence the 2016 presidential race.

Additionally, if Hannity knew information he helped spread came from Russian hackers or other foreign sources that obtained it illegally and didn’t report that to the FBI, that alone would be what’s know as misprision of a felony, i.e. knowing about a crime and failing to notify authorities. Conviction on either of those offenses would place the Fox host behind bars for several years, perhaps even decades.

But perhaps most disturbing is the possibility that Hannity, with the assistance of Fox News, helped spread propaganda in order to guarantee Trump was elected. if proven, such an act could well spell the end of Hannity’s career and sink Fox News once and for all.
