Even mopping his brow and butt-dialing people and giving an interview with his pants unzipped he did for Trump.

A new more stories like this, and I may have to start rethinking that whole “America’s Mayor” thing.

Rudy and #45* go to the same tailor. Neither one can find clothes that fit. You’d think money would solve the problem of tastelessness.

As I tell students, critical thinking is all that stands between being a respected public servant and lawyer, and a dupe making a fool of himself wandering around the globe as a conduit for GRU disinformation.

This really ties the whole thing together pretty neatly, and just as expected…Parnas was doing things to help Giuliani who was being directed by Trump, and all of it was aimed at hurting Joe Biden by drumming up a fake controversial that would be used during the election. I mean, it’s right there, clear as day. The question now is what happens next…we know this won’t change impeachment and the Republicans will let Trump off, but will this hurt him and the Republicans? Will more information coming out do it? We’re going to get more of these kinds of stories before the election, each one confirming what happened with more details, at some point it has to penetrate deeply enough to cost them…

You’d think someone would have come up with self-zipping pants by now.

At long last, Trump, Giuliani, and their merry band are proving that the Republican party is a party of CRIMINALS and THUGS.

“I am private counsel to President Donald J. Trump,” Giuliani wrote. “Just to be precise, I represent him as a private citizen, not as President of the United States.”
Rudy Can’t Fail…
How you get a rude and a reckless?
Don’t you be so crude and feckless
You been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can’t fail (no, no)

Pulitzer for Josh Kovensky? His reporting is consistently SO well thought out, original and well articulated.

Rudy had to know that what he was doing was not legal even if he believed the ‘conspiracy’ that Hunter Biden was involved in something corrupt. I know Hunter Biden was not, but that’s beside the point. It would still have been illegal for Rudy to do all of this shit on the President’s personal behalf. Damn, it will be a miracle if Rudy avoids going to prison.

Rudy has not been arrested and charged with anything yet. I Barr holding it up?

Forced to note that Shelly’s Backroom downtown is a great place to fire it up. Only downside, your clothes will smell like an ashtray for weeks. Don’t pick up a date after going to Shelly’s.

Until now I wasn’t aware that disreputable characters frequented the bar.

Women might wear them, men probably not so much. The risk might be a little too high, or for some guys way too high.

Kinda like self-impeaching, resulting in performance issues.

Awww, that’s so sweet. There’s a song for that

Kiss today goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
Wish me luck, the same to you
But I can’t regret
What I did for love, what I did for love

I only wish it was August instead of January. (Not in terms of weather of course since January now is not unlike August.) As I mentioned before, Rudy has so much dirt on Trump at this point; in fact, other than Putin, he just might have the most leverage of all.

This bromance is as compelling as a train wreck. Mr. Giuliani’s devotion to Mr. Trump, and vice versa, has to be the most demented love affair I’ve ever seen in politics…and I’ve seen a few!
