President Trump's attorney Rudy Giuliani defended his investigation of Democrats, including Joe Biden and Ukraine, while pointing a finger at the Obama administration and its potential involvement in corruption.
"My role is very, very simple. I'm a lawyer defending a client," Giuliani told host Maria Bartiromo on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures," stating that he was exploring a lead on information that he claimed not only could vindicate Trump regarding claims that he colluded with Russia in the 2016 election, but that could show that it was Democrats who colluded with Ukraine to hurt Trump's campaign.
"If you can prove that somebody else did it, or there's some other explanation for it, then you pursue that vigorously."
**SNIP**
Giuliani also defended his role in exploring allegations that Joe Biden, as vice president, pressured Ukraine into firing top prosecutor Viktor Shokin by threatening to withhold $1 billion that was owed to Ukraine.
“I wasn’t trying to get dirty information on Biden. Biden was in our way," Giuliani said.

How dare Rudy defend our President who has been taken to task because he had the nerve to ask about government corruption, the participants of whom are Democrats. This isn’t the way of the Swamp.
ever since this all broke loose, rudy has been on a tear... when on TV, they can’t get him to pause.. he talks over all.
He and Trump... and probably the rest of the administration who care.. are angry! The dems opened a can of worms they will not be able to control... it was too much... and we all know there is a breaking point ... the dems reached it.. and smutz really did it on camera... he does not know that was OVER THE LINE... but he shall know...
I can’t even imagine how nuts the media and democrats ( same thing) would be going right now if Secretary of State Pompeo was getting millions of dollars from countries around the world for his “charity”.
Well when Joe was bragging on videotape about strong-arming Ukraine and the Ukraine official asked him if 0bama was on board with it, Joe said: ~ 'Yes, call him and find out.
So, I'd say 0bama knew all about it.
Any defense of POTUS, or attack on a Democrat will be met with a chorus of universal derision.
That’s the zeitgeist.
Only trials and hangings can possibly turn it around.
“I wasn’t trying to get dirty information on Biden. Biden was in our way,” Giuliani said...
I LOVE Rudy :)
Parts of the interview I thought Maria was going to wet herself. I thought she was New York tough.
Oh yeah. Don’t criticize the golden boy Obola. He’s the commie left’s god. He did such a great job....of destroying the U.S. Hopefully if I live long enough and there is true justice left in this land,that pencil necked prick will get what he deserves. I know I’m hoping against hope but Lord almighty deliver us from the clutches of these evil people. Amen.
What was if that that gal pal Lisa Page said? “POTUS wants to know everything we’re doing”.
Amen, brother.
“”’What did Obama know?’ “
Well when Joe was bragging on videotape about strong-arming Ukraine and the Ukraine official asked him if 0bama was on board with it, Joe said: ~ ‘Yes, call him and find out.
So, I’d say 0bama knew all about it.”
According to Obama, he never knew anything until he read it in the papers like everyone else, remember???

Obama told Biden advisers not to let the former Veep ‘damage his legacy’ in his 2020 presidential run

Former President Barack Obama has reportedly expressed doubts to former Vice President Joe Biden about his bid for the 2020 presidential nomination.
Obama gently urged Biden against running, but the former vice president said he felt he had an obligation to take on President Donald Trump, according to a New York Times report.
Obama reportedly told Biden’s advisers to not let the former vice president “damage his legacy” along the campaign trail.
Obama, who remains popular in his post-presidency, has not endorsed anyone in the 2020 Democratic primary. But his legacy has at times emerged as a point of debate among 2020 Democrats.

Former President Barack Obama and Joe Biden have an extremely close relationship, but that reportedly hasn’t alleviated concerns Obama has about the former vice president’s 2020 campaign.
Obama spoke with Biden about the prospect of him running multiple times before the former vice president hopped into the race, and “took pains to cast his doubts about the campaign in personal terms,” according to a New York Times report.
A person familiar with the exchange told The Times that Obama said to Biden, “You don’t have to do this, Joe, you really don’t.” But Biden responded that he felt he had an obligation to take on President Donald Trump and that he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself if he didn’t give it a shot.
Obama has not endorsed anyone in the wide field of 2020 Democrats, but has apparently taken a special interest in his former vice president’s campaign.
It’s easier to be NY tough when you’re not really wealthy and don’t stand to lose a bunch :)
I can be NY tough because I’m relatively inconsequential in the big scheme :)
Maybe she’s afraid of the powers that be.
That would be a shame.
Don’t you know, Obama never knew anything until he saw it on the news.
History will write how October 2019 determined the fate of the American republic.
Giuliani brought up Bammy, the head of the Deep State snake.
Barr is in Italy, in person, because he knows the CIA monitors his electronic communications. We must know soon the particulars of Mifsud’s employers, the CIA, who had him ensnare George Papadopolous, and was the justification for Mueller’s witch hunt.
The President cannot communicate without CIA eavesdropping.
This is War. President Trump is up to the task. I believe he will show his cards before the Deep State takes a vote to impeach him this month.
Now or never. The final battle for the American Union.
I’ve been very impressed with Rudy for the past week or so.

The dems will literally go to war to protect their chosen one. In the land of commiecrat subjects the first black(ish) US President is King.
If Trump hadn't won, or more precise, if Hillary had won; we would be living in a communist shithole today. No 1st or 2nd Amendment rights. Property rights would soon be a thing of the past. That would just be the warm up to the real damage during her second criminal term. Christianity would soon be all but forbotten. Islam would be the only accepted religion cult. The government would become the real God to these heathen asshats.
Our Constitution would be all but burned on the alter of political correctness. Of course PC would be what they say it is, along with the US Constitution, and that could change on a weekly or even daily basis if needed. They are already doing it in NYC. A $250k fine if you even use the term "illegal alien" or call ICE on someone who is.
Seig Heil Herr Hillary/Barack!
Oh and God help you if you're white and not a true believer of the commiecrat way. Can you say "boxcars" FRiend? Servant or boxcar. Those would be your two choices if you remained in America. Very few other countries would accept you though because the globalists would have won worldwide. One single man threw a wrench into those well oiled gears then exposed the commie globalists for what they truly are. Tyrants. One single man stands between our freedoms today and the commiecrat way. President Donald Trump.
Obama was never eligible.
TPTB got Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck to vociferously join the Alinsky operation against those who know what natural born citizen means.
They went out of their way to squelch any questions about Obama’s eligibility.
