Giuliani under investigation for alleged campaign finance, lobbying breaches
The Hill ^ | 11/14/2019 | Jessica Campisi

Posted on 11/14/2019 6:24:03 PM PST by lodi90

President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani is under investigation by federal prosecutors over possible campaign finance violations and accusations he failed to register as a foreign agent . Multiple U.S. officials told the outlet that the probe into Giuliani’s financial dealings could also lead to charges of violating bribery or conspiracy laws, with one adding that his work alongside the president has raised counterintelligence concerns.

The former New York City mayor is at the heart of House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry into Trump, as investigators look into Giuliani's role in efforts to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate one of the president's chief political rivals, former Vice President Joe Biden.

Giuliani, if indicted, would likely affect Trump's defense strategy amid the ongoing probe.

Note that Pelosi just introduced the bribery meme.


Exactly, this all so obviously coordinated coup between the elected Democrats and Deep Staters. Meanwhile, the GOP Senate refuses to use its powers to gather any facts and stop this. That leaves POTUS riding solo and bare behind to the beltway wind.

Rudy Giulliani is the President’s personal attorney, as well as the Presidents emissary to the Ukraine.

No way he was raising campaign money or representing a foreign country here in the USA.

Trump simply used Rudy to get the job done in the Ukraine, using Rudy to do an end run around the Deep State bureaucrats who wanted to keep the Obama policies in place.The President can send who he wants to implement his policies abroad, as a matter of right.

Now the Deep State is after Rudy.......too bad. Rudy is going to skate.

You would hope.

Michael Flynn would tell you otherwise. That jackass was working as a paid lobbyist for Turkey even while serving as a senior advisor to Trump's 2016 campaign.

SDNY appears to be lending a helping hand to rescue the failing impeachment farce AND blunt the release of the FISA report.

(Your concerns about the GOP senate are well founded. Many of them resent Trump and are effectively enabling this sedition.)

... and Guiliani said he has “insurance”. Trump has few if any friends.

Professional politicians from BOTH parties really don’t care what happens as long as they can get President Trump out of office...They seem to think things will just go back like they were before with the politicians just running the show the way they want and we, the people, just sighing and going on as before...

They are clueless as to what could very well happen....

If Flynn was still working as a lobbyist for Turkey, Erdogan likely would not be buying his air defense system from Russia.

And what about Hunter Biden who was representing both China and the Ukraine as an unregistered lobbyist, as well as a bundler for the Dem Party.You don’t see him attracting flies from the DOJ when in fact he is the stinking pile of dung souring the roses of the beltway.

More like: “We push the Democrats left”. The far left media isn’t the tail - it’s the head.

So, did Jodie Evans and Medea Benjamin of Code Pink register as foreign agents of Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and al Qaeda in Iraq?

I would imagine President Trump is paying Rudy. That is his personal right as the nations Chief executive. Rudy is doing the President’s official business. The Deep State does not like it at all, because President Trump is succeeding where they sought to delay and obstruct him.

"...as investigators look into Giuliani's role in efforts to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate one of the president's chief political rivals, former Vice President Joe Biden."

How's that happen? Didn't President Trump authorize Giuliani to speak to Zelensky, also AG Barr to speak to Zelensky? And didn't the State Department knew of Guiliani's contacting Zelensky? I believe Mike Pompeo approved of the State Department's roll in facilitating the contacts. What crap.

Our ally Turkey is in crisis and needs our support
