So the big mystery in the court hearing today over the raid on Michael Cohen’s offices and residences was: who was Cohen’s mysterious Client #3, alongside Trump and Republican National Committee fundraiser Elliott Broidy.
MYSTERY SOLVED! It was SEAN HANNITY! And no, you aren’t hallucinating.
A wild Sean Hannity appears

It would be awful if people just started wildly conjecturing what Sean Hannity was doing in business with a sex fixer. pic.twitter.com/stWcNC5GCa

Yes, because everyone I have ever taken a picture with is also my secret lawyer that I talk about on Fox News constantly without mentioning this relationship pic.twitter.com/qW4e7mCTyy

In other news, Weird Mike Cernovich gets weirder:

Also, penises:
As recently as 2009, female senators couldn’t use the pool in the congressional gym because some of their male colleagues liked to swim naked. https://t.co/Jx1kYNQ3XJ pic.twitter.com/YzThnkSKrW

That last tweet was a joke. Sadly, the one before it wasn’t.
“Huh, I hadn’t heard of that ‘nxivm sex cult’ thing that juicebro mentioned, so I looked it up.”
I just googled nxivm juicebro and only one entry for a site called “gamersagainstgamergate” popped up, so what is it that you are referring to?
@idli,
Use ‘Nxivm sex cult’ instead of ‘Nxivm juicebro’ as the search terms. Should get you what you (don’t) want to see.

What Redsilkphoenix said. Also, “juicebro” is a common name for Mike Cernovich, referring to his enthusiasm for anabolic steroids.
Forget “juicebro”, I’m still racking my head trying to think what phrase “NXIVM” could possibly stand for.
Roman numerals?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NXIVM
Wikipedia says that it’s a multi level marketing scheme.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2018/04/20/smallville-actress-allison-mack-arrested-for-recruiting-women-for-sex-cult-leader/?noredirect=on
Allison Mack was arrested for sex trafficking related to a nxivm cult, so Juicebro could be referring to either
Edit: apparently the sex cult & multi level marketing company are the same group. And they brand women apparently? Not surprised Juicebro is into it.
@Redsilkphoenix: Doubt it. I thought so too at first but “N” is not a valid Roman numeral. Since it’s unpronounceable and not Roman numerals, my current hypothesis has been acronym-of-some-sort …
There’s a thing in the software world where long and frequently used words get shortened to (first letter) + (number of intervening letters) + (last letter). Examples:
internationalisation = i18n
localisation = l10n
kubernetes = k8s
and so on. So, perhaps ‘NXIVM’ is a 16-letter word beginning with ‘N’ and ending with ‘M’. Take your pick:
necessitarianism
neoexpressionism
neoimpressionism
niminy-piminyism
nitrosobacterium
noncosmopolitism
nonexhibitionism
nucleohyaloplasm
Interesting hypothesis … except the middle bit is 14, not 16. 🙂
Yes, that’s what I said. ‘N’ is one letter, ‘M’ is one letter, add 14 in the middle and you have a total of 16.
