Turning down 10 million from a saudi royal makes one a target
lobbying?? Making inquiries is not lobbying. And remember, his work was at the request of the State Department.
He is receiving heavy flak and we all know what that means.
I think Pres. Trump needs to start doing a lot of preemptive pardoning.
Joe Biden wanted Rudy shut down and the SDNY helped him out. I hate these people.
Depends on what the definition of “lobbying” is.
The gd DOJ works for Trump. Why the hell is this happening?!??! He needs to fire everyone one of these backstabbers. Essentially his Presidency is finished if he can’t hire people to work for him and can’t trust anyone that is working for him.
Excellent. Trump is loyal to the people who are loyal to him.
DVR is set.
Are you completely unaware of the virtual impossibility of firing career federal employees?
Appointed officials is a different story. They can easily be fired if you’re will to take the flack.
Hope he’s given copies of all those affidavits he’s been talking about to someone he can trust. He’s probably next in line for a middle of the night swat pajama party.
Plainly political. As soon as they prosecute Hunter for not registering as a lobbyist they will have some credibility.
Trump tells DOJ not to touch Rudy and they have him dead for obstruction. Use your head.
Southern District of New York
There are so many federal laws on the books that literally anyone can be be turned into a convicted felon if the powers that be want it.
Clinton did it.
“for possibly lobbying violations”
Who writes this stuff?
I hope to see an announcement ASAP stating there’s nothing here. It better.
“Southern District of New York”
Those MFing Resistards, again.
