Several of the attorneys who spearheaded President Donald Trump’s frenzied effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election tried, and failed, to collect payment for the work they did for Trump’s political operation, despite the fact that their lawsuits and false claims of election interference helped the Trump campaign and allied committees raise $250 million in the weeks following the November vote.
Among them was Trump’s closest ally, former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani. Trump and Giuliani had a handshake agreement that Giuliani and his team would get paid by the Trump political operation for their post-election work, according to Timothy Parlatore, an attorney for longtime Giuliani ally Bernard Kerik.
But the Trump campaign and their affiliated committees ultimately did not honor that pledge, according to campaign finance records. The failure to pay Giuliani and his team came up last week in a private interview between prosecutors on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team and Bernard Kerik, a member of Giuliani’s team in late 2020, according to Parlatore.

Well if he did pay them he better not have put “legal fees” in his ledger when doing so...that’s a felony you know...
Because FR NEVERTRUMPERS post it all day everyday is why
CNBC boldly declared Trump was finished——in 2017.
Not a reliable source. A teensy weensy bit biased, methinks.
Sure coming out of the closet a lot lately.
Must be scared and getting desperate?
Yeah, seems some are going into turbo mode...
Cockroaches DO have turbo, right?
That’s pretty funny. You reply airily to my relatively superficial comment — which was not directed to you — but ignored my substantive reply to your direct question, that WAS directed to you, and which I took seriously and respectfully.
You’re either not all you’re cracked up to be, or you have nothing, really, to contribute. Guess I’ll have to draw my own conclusion. Disappointing.
ROFL!
Oops.. typo, but I am sure y’all knew what I meant (”to talk some sense”).
Do you actually believe anything on CNBC? Why would follow that filth?
You believe everything you are told?
i call bs
Jack Smith, my hero! I’m sure he’ll be just as fair and conscientious as he’s been up until now.
Yes, it was a small number that fought for freedom from King George.
Many sluffed off their Patriotism to opt for velvet chains.
Thank God for the Brave Heroes that fought for the establishment of our Republic!
Now our own government is the NEW King George!
Many Patriots are seeing the dangers.
We must stand up against the Traitors!
Deep State is starting a Revolution.
No one is obligated to agree with you.
People will speak up to counter TrollSpeak.
He’s just the investigator.
Painful truth: At some point, perhaps DJT needs to take some responsibility for his inability to surround himself with competent people.
Don’t know about Rudy, but Jenna Ellis will flip. In fact, she kinda already did:
