Man, Ghouliani is so full of hot air, it’s a miracle he hasn’t floated off into the stratosphere.

Probably those lead lifts he’s got in his shoes, trying to stand tall for Spankee.

ETA: Headline over at Faux Noise is, unsurprisingly, “Timing Suspect!” :smirk:

Has Trump, Rudy, or anyone else in this brain trust ever actually revealed something they said they would soon be able to reveal? Because I swear if it happens more than 117 times again I’m going to start feeling dubious about whether they have anything to reveal at all.

I wonder if the timing had anything to do with the fact that they were about to flee the country?

Don’t worry Rudy, it’s just Bill Barr that wants to get rid of loose ends. Parnas and Fruman will get very depressed in the next few days and will hang themselves while a substitute guard was sleeping. Too bad if they owe you money.

Hmmmm. Nothing to do with the campaign?

The charge is “conspiracy” and they met with Donald Trump Jr. in California for “an intimate ‘Power Breakfast!!!’” a mere 4 days after donating that $325,000 to The Trump Campaign.

Conspiracy? Quid Pro Quo?

Though Trump will be literally asking for it, today is a great day to fire Rudy Giuliani.

I’m still waiting for the information on Obama’s birth certificate that Trump said I wouldn’t believe.

would love to see what would happen, but Rudy knows where all the bodies are buried and will never shut up. I don’t think they will ever cut him loose. If they do, it will only be for show.

Me too. Might be a while longer to wait. Think I’ll make lunch right now and see if anything develops later this afternoon.

Guiliani will soon be abandoned by Trump. He’s now part of the investigation and a material fact witness facing prison. Once the happens, Guiliani has a choice: protect Trump for no reason (and hoping for a pardon) or turn on him and seek an immunity deal.

There are certain times when we can arrest suspects, certainly it is not when they are fleeing the country.

" CNN correspondent Jim Acosta reported that Jay Sekulow, Trump’s other personal lawyer, said the criminal case isn’t connected to the President."
But if I’m not mistaken Sekulow said the other day that Guilianai was one of Trumps lawyers.

If I’m not mistaken standing on a corner with known criminals,police assume you are one of the criminals also.

To say that “Giuliani Thinks” is incredibly generous, and assumes facts not in evidence.
