Rudy Giuliani predicts Trump will be 'totally vindicated' by 'smoking gun' in Hunter Biden probe: 'We've got the documents'
Fox News ^ | 2/9/2020 | Victor Garcia

Posted on 02/08/2020 11:05:14 PM PST by conservative98

Giuliani told host Jesse Watters that his goal was to make sure Trump emerges as "totally vindicated" following the Democrats' failed impeachment proceedings on Capitol Hill, which ended last week with the president acquitted on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

"I want to prove what happened," Giuliani said, "because I believe if we prove what happened, he will be totally vindicated."

Watters asked Giuliani if he had any documentation regarding Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine before adding that Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., will be investigating that.

"Lindsey, get started," Giuliani said, laughing, before declaring he had "what I used to call when I was U.S. attorney, the smoking gun."

Sen. Lindsey Graham on President Trump's acquittal in Senate impeachment trial, Mitt Romney's guilty voteVideo Watters' summarized the "smoking gun" as "a 'roundabout' -- an international wire to avoid detection disguised as a loan."

Giuliani voiced his frustration that Biden's father -- former Vice President Joe Biden, who's now running for president -- wasn't investigated back when he bragged about getting Ukraine prosecutor Viktor Shokin fired.

"Look, the government has been so lax in investigating, it's pathetic," Giuliani said. "I mean ... when I was a U.S. attorney ... the day Joe Biden made that boastful announcement ... the investigation would have begun the next day for bribery."

Giuliani ended the segment by declaring, "We've got the documents, Lindsey."

You are so right. You wouldn’t think it could worse but apparently telling everyone on tv doesn’t even matter.

Republican Senators Tried to Stop Trump From Firing Impeachment Witness

A handful of senators reached out to the White House to warn the president not to dismiss Gordon D. Sondland, the ambassador to the European Union who testified in the House hearings. But Mr. Trump went ahead anyway.

EXCERPT

Among the Republicans who warned the White House was Senator Susan Collins of Maine, who after voting to acquit Mr. Trump said she thought he had learned a lesson. Others included Senators Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Martha McSally of Arizona and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. The White House did not respond to requests for comment on Saturday but a senior administration official confirmed the senators’ outreach on behalf of Mr. Sondland, a donor to Mr. Tillis and other Republicans.

“Rudy has been saying he has “documented proof” for a couple of months and, as usual, nothing has happened”

Yes, he has. People ask him for it, and he tells them to go listen to his podcast. And if he has the goods, why hasn’t he turned them over to the DOJ? It just reeks of self-promotion.

This is why I kept saying I wasn’t excited with Beck’s presentation. It was Rudy who did the footwork and gathered the evidence and supporting paperwork. Why would Beck try and usurp the credit due to Rudy?

But, at least the info is getting out there for folks to see.

My view is that one should put up, or one should shut up. Even if the teases. All we get is teases

'We've got the documents'

Well then tell Barr and his sidekick Wray to get off their keisters and start arresting people.

But we know where that will go. Nowhere.

Rudy is a very experienced in investigator and there are a number of valid reasons he is doing what he is doing and why his actions are part of a coordinated plan.

You can see this because his is always doing something and that something is always just enough to accomplish a short term goal.

The last short term goal was three fold - to keep President Trump from being removed from office, to keep him from being tarred by the impeachment proceedings in the publics eyes and finally, to flip the script on most of the Democrats false narratives.

The Democrats always accuse you of what they themselves are doing or are guilty of. Lenin advocated this strategy and Saul Alinsky honed the technique to a razor edge and taught it to an entire generation of Practical Radicals. Alinsky was so successful that the Radicals have internalized this to such a degree its become second nature and you can actually figure out what they are up to by watching what they accuse others of.

President Trumps team is in the process of flipping the script on the Democrats and their corruption and the team members are succeeding. Rudy has been a huge part of this and the way it is being done is vintage Trump

Investigations are ongoing and for some reason the timing is not right for release of everything.

No way is Rudy lying on this.

Earlier this year, Rudy made a telling comment on the Laura Ingram Show to the effect that his job was “to stir things up” and that is exactly what he is doing -and doing it well. Part of the “teasing” is to flip the script on the Democrat strategy of using impeachment as a weapon to claim any investigations are illegitimate Russian election interference or hacking and prosecution is just political payback for opposition to Trump. Rudy is flipping the script to the truth - impeachment was to cover up massive Obama Era corruption and to remove President Trump before he could expose it and bring the guilty to justice. The sums of money stolen during the Obama Era are so big, seizing the assets and bringing them back to the US Treasury could have a noticeable economic impact

I would like to see the Bidens brought to justice for their blatant influence pedaling,

However, the significance of the Bidens’ corruption goes way, way beyond anything the Bidens did.

The real significance of the Biden’s corruption is that, once proven real, it exonerates President Trump, and implicates a whole slew of Democrats and deep state conspirators in yet another attempt to frame and remove a duly elected President.

As it now stands, the fake news has the public largely convinced that President Trump was pushing “debunked conspiracy theories” about the Bidens in order to hurt Joe Biden’s run for President, and that the President was acquitted “on technicalities”, and because the Republicans control the Senate.

This fake news narrative is very dangerous if left unchallenged. Being acquitted is not enough. The President should be fully exonerated rather than letting this presumption of guilt fester. The idea that he got away with something because he had better lawyers and because Republicans control the senate - if believed, could eat away at his support.

Exposing the truth about the Bidens will show the public that President Trump’s interest in investigating the Bidens was not based on a debunked “conspiracy theory”, but rather was based on hard evidence and probable cause.

The entire false narrative regarding the President’s alleged self-serving motives for asking about the Bidens - will completely evaporate as soon as the public sees that the Biden’s corruption was real.

Exactly so. It’s time for Barr to shoot. My guess is he acts next week or he gets fired.
