Giuliani won't be part of Trump defense at Senate trial
By Morgan Chalfant - 01/18/21 01:31 PM EST

President Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani said Monday he will not be part of the president's defense team for the upcoming impeachment trial in the Senate, saying he could be called as a witness due to his involvement in the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the Capitol riot.

"Due to the fact that I may be a witness, the rules of legal ethics would prohibit me from representing the President as trial counsel in the impeachment trial," Giuliani said in a statement to The Hill.

The news that Giuliani would not join the defense team was first reported by ABC News. The New York Times also reported on Monday that Giuliani would not be involved in the president’s defense, citing a person close to Trump.


Giuliani previously told ABC that he was working on Trump’s impeachment defense prior to meeting with the president at the White House over the weekend. The former New York City mayor led Trump's unsuccessful legal effort to overturn the election results late last year.

Right.

This is nothing more than a kangaroo court trial.
Mr. Trump should flat-out refuse to participate.
To participate would lend credibility to the charges and to the process, of which there can be neither.

Let the Pubbie senators vote to convict him.
It will become the most consequential vote (for themselves and for their party) that they ever cast...

Still?  Then it was nothing more than show and tell or are we going to be watching her version of Romper Room pretty soon?
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
