Rudy Giuliani

Rudy Giuliani is grasping at straws as his own comments continue to make his legal situation more complicated. The latest tenuous defense from former President Donald Trump's lawyer is that if someone is accused of a lower-level felony then they shouldn't be raided by the FBI.

"I don't know why they're searching my house. I have no idea what they, what they allege I supposedly did, acted as an agent for some Ukrainian? It's just totally untrue," Giuliani said on his radio show. "I don't know what they base it on. Either their own supposition or some liar? But, I can prove that I wasn't. I've offered to come there and prove it."

A failed gadget inventor-turned-treasure hunter is the latest folk hero to emerge among Donald Trump's hardcore supporters, who remain convinced that evidence of election fraud will emerge to reinstall him in the White House.

The board of selectmen in Windham, New Hampshire, chose voting technology executive Mark Lindeman last month as auditor, but the town's Trump fans already want him replaced with inventor Jovan Hutton Pulitzer after learning Lindeman had criticized the Arizona audit being carried out by GOP lawmakers looking to overturn the November election, reported The Daily Beast.

Two years before the 2020 election, the conspiracy that Donald Trump won the election was part of a plot cooked up by a Texas Republican businessman, reported a Washington Post exposé.

In a shocking report, the Post revealed Russell J. Ramsland Jr. pitched an idea that "seemed rooted in evidence."

Appearing on MSNBC on Mother's Day afternoon, one of Donald Trump's former communication directors claimed he has no doubts that former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani will offer up everything he has on Donald Trump to stay out of jail.

Speaking with host Alex Witt, Anthony Scaramucci stated that he has a longtime relationship with Giuliani and that the man who was formerly known as "America's mayor" has indicated in the past that he has "insurance" in case he is somehow facing legal problems related to Trump.

New reporting is coming out on the scope of the federal investigation into former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

"Since at least October 2019, federal investigations have been looking into Rudy Giuliani's effort to convince the White House and a reluctant State Department to grant a visa to a former Ukraine official, according to two people briefed on the matter. These sources tell The Daily Beast that the visa issue is one aspect of the federal probe into whether Giuliani's efforts during the Trump-Ukraine saga constituted illegal lobbying on behalf of foreign officials or individuals. According to people with knowledge of the matter, including Giuliani's own legal team, federal investigators are also investigating his attempt to get the former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch fired," The Beast reported Friday evening.

Before he was elected mayor of New York City in 1993, Republican Rudy Giuliani was a federal prosecutor for the Southern District of New York — and he had a reputation for being tough, focused and aggressive. But now, ironically, Giuliani finds himself being investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice. His home and office in Manhattan were recently searched as part of a DOJ investigation of his Ukraine-related activities of the Trump era. And CNN's Marshall Cohen offers some insights on those search warrants in an article published on May 7.

Cohen explains, "The Justice Department's criminal investigation into Rudy Giuliani involves an international cast of characters: Trump White House allies, Republican lawyers, Ukrainian oligarchs, diplomats, right-wing journalists and other figures who aren't household names…. Giuliani has denied all wrongdoing and claimed the investigation itself is unconstitutional."

Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) has refused to be served in a lawsuit over his role in inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to an attorney for Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA).

The California Democrat has sued President Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Rudy Giuliani for their own roles in the Capitol insurrection, and the complaint also alleges that Brooks incited the riot with his speech ahead of the violent assault on the democratic process, reported Axios.

BuzzFeed news reported Thursday that a former employee for Erik Prince's defense contractor firm Blackwater did Rudy Giuliani's security during his 2019 allegedly nefarious activities in Ukraine.

Giuliani was raided by the FBI last week as part of his efforts in Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelensky's former aide revealed to MSNBC Wednesday that Giuliani seemed to have a lot of different titles about his role for former President Donald Trump.

A federal judge made good on a his warning that he'd sanction the lawyer for Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), who filed a series of failed defamation suits against media outlets. As Law&Crime points out, U.S. District Judge Richard Bennet ruled that Nunes' attorney, Steve Biss, had "unreasonably and vexatiously" tried to drag on their lawsuit against CNN after the case had already been dismissed with prejudice for failing to state a claim in March.

Despite the dismissal, Biss filed an amended complaint that the judge described as "nothing more than a repetition of the original complaint with no new material factual allegations."

Anti-Trump conservative George Conway on Thursday wrote an editorial for the Washington Post in which he broke down the dangers former President Donald Trump faces from his one-time personal attorney Rudy Giuliani.

Conway starts out by noting that federal investigators seem to be probing whether Giuliani's efforts to oust former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch were done at the behest of foreign government officials who were paying him to lobby Trump.

New facts are still coming out about former president Donald Trump's use of Russian misinformation to get elected president -- and to nearly overturn his election loss.

The twice-impeached one-term president has been banished from Twitter and, at least for now, Facebook, so his ability to pump out falsehoods has been severely diminished, but the government has recently revealed new evidence about how Russia influenced U.S. politics using his social media reach, reported CNN.

Trump biographer Michael D'Antonio thinks the former president could be making a big mistake by not helping former personal attorney Rudy Giuliani pay his legal bills.

Appearing on CNN, D'Antonio said that Giuliani is going to face a lot of heat from prosecutors in the coming months, and he may be tempted to lower his potential legal exposure by offering up dirt on former President Donald Trump.
