“You gotta do it. I’m mean, you don’t have a choice.”

Rudy Giuliani, former mayor of New York City and part of President Donald Trump’s legal team, is coming under fire... from himself.

Comments he made in 1998 during the investigation into President Bill Clinton seem to undermine the arguments he’s making today for Trump.

On Sunday, Giuliani said the president doesn’t have to testify even if subpoenaed by special counsel Robert Mueller.

[...]

But he sang a different tune in an interview with interviewer Charlie Rose two decades ago.

“You gotta do it,” he said. “I’m mean, you don’t have a choice.”

20 years ago I thought flip phones were fine, smoking pot was illegal and airline travel was a pleasure.

What was the legal change on subpoenas since then? I missed that legislation.

The 2018 version of Giuliani has done enough damage.  That’s why he’s benched and the uber drip Pence is now speaking about the Mueller probe.

Guiliani built up a pretty nice legacy leading NYC after 9-11.  Shocked he would risk it all like he's doing.

Well, now he's doing it full time.  Hard to say whether this was his idea or a strong suggestion from the partners.....


Giuliani And His Manhattan Law Firm Part Ways

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rudy Giuliani is leaving his Manhattan law firm to focus solely on his new role on President Donald Trump's legal team.

The former New York City mayor originally planned simply to take a leave of absence from the law firm of Greenberg Traurig when he joined Trump's outside team last month.

But the law firm released a statement Thursday announcing that the parting would be permanent.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/giuliani-manhattan-law-firm-part-ways-162659275--politics.html


The firm has released a statement regarding the comments Giuliani made concerning making payments and handling situations for clients, without their knowledge.  Apparently, they disagree.....


“We cannot speak for Mr. Giuliani with respect to what was intended by his remarks,” Greenberg Traurig spokeswoman Jill Perry told the New York Times. “Speaking for ourselves, we would not condone payments of the nature alleged to have been made or otherwise without the knowledge and direction of a client.”

The Times reported that there had been concerns among the firms partners about Giuliani’s comments. Greenberg Traurig was also home to lobbyist Jack Abramoff, who became the center of a massive corruption scandal in the mid-aughts.

Giuliani, however, has since pushed back, according to MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace, who said she spoke to him over the phone before her Thursday afternoon show. On Thursday’s broadcast, she said that she asked Giuliani about the Times report, and specifically about the firm’s statement.

“Quote, ‘They don’t know what they’re talking about. We do this all the time. They do this all the time for their clients,'” Wallace said Giuliani told her.
