Fox News: Two Other Lawyers Worked With Giuliani To Dig Up Dirt On Biden In Ukraine

Two other lawyers reportedly worked with Rudy Giuliani in his efforts to get Ukraine to dig up dirt on President Donald Trump’s top 2020 challenger, Joe Biden.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1252321

If Chris Wallace wants to get the taint of Fox off him, he will dig into the Ukraine story like Trump into a well-done steak slathered in ketchup.

But of course no mention that both Joe diGenova and his wife Victoria Toensing are FREQUENT guests on Fox News.

Ah. Rudy Giuliani, Joe diGenova and his wife Victoria Toensing: The Three Hucksterteers. Sounds about right.

They were just following orders, right? The people that pay them insisted they do this or they wouldn’t be paid.

Somehow, that defense probably won’t work when the two (or three) of them are disbarred.

It’s almost as if Trump has set up a parallel alternative invisible extra-governmental apparatus to serve his evil personal cravings … there must be a term for that … it’ll come to me … just give me a minute …

It’s a wonder they took time from running after the farmer’s wife…

Fox News host Chris Wallace kicked off his Sunday morning program by announcing the new details, which were provided to Fox by an unnamed official.

So Fox just outed two of their own contributors for helping Trump “off the books”? I can’t help but wonder if Paul Ryan and/or Lachlan Murdoch are behind this. Hopefully, this makes those two attorneys persona non grata at Fox going forward.

Hmmm, Deep State? Naw, sounds malevolent enough but too pervasive and competent. The Plumbers might be closer, eh?

I am pretty sure TRump considers lawyers and plumbers on pretty much the same level - they are supposed to fix the problem and then shut up when he doesn’t pay them. And if they can’t “fix” it, then they must be terrible lawyers. The law is a totally meaningless abstract concept to TRump.

And I did get your plumbers reference - I was a complete Watergate junkie.

I remember these two during the Clinton impeachment on TV like a Ricky and Lucy couple of hate but claimed that they were piously upholding the constitution, now they are the new Roy Cohn law firm.

But of course… Clearly RudyColludy has been breaking bad for a looooong time.

I hope that this all coming out now means Karma’s warming up for the takedown. She’s got a lot on her plate with this mob.
