Giuliani rips Ukraine investigation: 'I committed no crime'
The Hill ^ | 08/02/2021 | Mychael Schnell

Posted on 08/02/2021 6:30:39 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Rudy Giuliani on Friday slammed a Justice Department investigation into his alleged dealings with Ukraine, contending that he “committed no crime.”

“I committed no crime, and if you think I committed a crime, you're probably really stupid, because you don't know who I am,” Giuliani said in an interview with NBC New York.

Federal prosecutors have for some time been leading an investigation into Giuliani, the ex-personal attorney to former President Trump, and his dealings in Ukraine, looking into his actions when he was pushing for a Ukrainian probe of the Biden family.

A show trial doesn’t require an actual crime. It just need a victim.

Give Biden’s Marxists credit. When they seized power, it did not take them long to use the DOJ to do their dirty work. Sadly Trump was never able to execute the power that he had.

“Trump needs to win and politicize the doj like the democrats have.”

Trump had his chance to do the right thing. Not “politicize” the DOJ, but just make the DOJ do its f—ing JOB, and by choosing the right people for AG. There were SO MANY patriots who were qualified to have that position — people who were behind Trump 100% — but he passed over them.

I can give him a small pass on Sessions; we all were bamboozled by this retard who folded like a cheap lawn chair from the get-go by recusing himself from important issues. But Barr ... his history and loyalties were out there for everyone to see and know. yet there he was sabotaging PDJT at every turn.

If he wins the Presidency for the third time, I wonder if he’d make better choices. I think he would, and I hope he’d be a hard ass in every situation. No more Mister Nice Guy.

Yes. If Trump were to get elected in 2024, I would hope that he would push the envelope for exercising power. Fire thousands. Close departments. Drain the swamp with no niceties. Just set fire to it.

“Witch hunt. “

Yes but “You don’t know who I am” is not a powerful defense”.

I believe him. But he did commit a crime. And the unpardonable sin at the same time. He helped President Trump derail the Uniparty’s gravy train of bribes, kickbacks, and filthy lucre. For that they must both pay the price. Poor President Trump. He thought he was helping the sheep [Average guy who was struggling to keep his/her head above the water] He learned that the sheep did not want of need helping as they voted for Biden in droves. And by the time the Democrats stole some votes, it was all over. Why did not they hate President Trump? Because of the way he talked. But What the Hell? The American Public would rather be led by tyrants than Governed. They prove that be voting Democrat.

Meanwhile there is a Fentanyl tsunami crossing our border, courtesy of illegal alien invasion and their criminal transporters. Where is the DOJ?

This is what happens when you as president fail to restore the rule of law.

Only the beginning with the corrupt Biden Justice Department.

What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats are doing to us.

They would simply impeach him and remove him from office. The only thing that would maybe stop them would be a civil uprising.

The Deep State is trying to make anyone listed as a Trump supporter an enemy of the state.

Who Said It?

_______ recounted a story in which he allegedly told then-President Petro Poroshenko that the U.S would not release $1 billion in loan guarantees unless Poroshenko fired the prosecutor general as part of anti-corruption efforts. Buzzfeed reports: "'I looked at them and said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours,’” ________told the crowd, taking a long look at his watch for effect. “‘If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’ Well, son of a bitch.” Here the audience laughed. 'He got fired.'"

A. Rudy Giuliani

B. Joe Biden

“we all were bamboozled by this retard “

No, “we” were not. I, and many others, knew what a swamp creature he was.

The appellate division of the New York Supreme Court ruled in June that Giuliani made “demonstrably false and misleading statements” to courts, lawmakers and the public when he was representing Trump and his campaign in their efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election

making “demonstrably false and misleading statements” to courts, lawmakers and the public is something Dims do all the time.
