Giuliani says he discussed Biden with Ukrainian official

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Yonnie3 (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: The Hill

Rudy Giuliani, who serves as President Trump's personal lawyer, said he spoke with a Ukrainian official about Joe Biden’s possible involvement in an investigation into the former vice president's son’s conduct relating to a Ukrainian-owned gas company.

The former New York City mayor’s meeting with Ukrainian officials was first reported by The New York Times. He later confirmed in an interview with CNN that he met with the officials.

Giuliani told CNN he spoke with Andriy Yermak, whom he called the lawyer for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, over the phone twice and agreed to a meeting in Madrid last month.

Giuliani told the network the conversation focused on Biden’s possible role in a prosecutor’s dismissal of an investigation into a Ukrainian natural gas company with connections to Biden's son and how Ukraine may have tried to damage Trump’s campaign.

Rudy was trying to make in the Ukraine? Poor Roods. Hey, Rudy, Robert Mueller spoke with the lawyer who met with Don Jr. about espionage. Did you ever look into that? Too busy worrying about the democratic politicians.

Why would anybody:
1) believe a word this guy said
2) report on anything he said as if it had merit

Go drinking with Larry Kudlow, Mr. Truth.
