Rudy Giuliani after whistleblower complaint released: 'When this is over, I will be the hero'

Jeanine Santucci, USA TODAY Published 7:18 p.m. ET Sept. 26, 2019

WASHINGTON -- After a whistleblower's complaint about President Donald Trump was declassified and made public on Thursday, Rudy Giuliani, Trump's personal lawyer, was angry, according to a report.

"It is impossible that the whistleblower is a hero and I’m not. And I will be the hero! These morons—when this is over, I will be the hero," Giuliani said while "nearly shouting" at an Atlantic journalist...…

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

I kind of doubt Volker and Pompeo are engaging in Giuliani hero worship, right now.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

’I wish he would shut the heck up’: Republicans sour on Giuliani

have great respect for Mr. Giuliani, but I said this yesterday and take it for what it's worth: He's wild as a March hare,” said Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.). “He's like a lot of senators, he's kind of a free range chicken, he kind of gets out there. What he says is his business, I don't speak for him."

Others put it more bluntly.

“I think it would be a good thing if he would go take a vacation,” a senior GOP lawmaker told POLITICO, one of several who declined to go on the record so they could speak critically of Giuliani.

Even some of Trump’s top allies on Capitol Hill don’t think Giuliani is doing the president or the party any favors by being such a constant presence in the media.

“Rudy’s saying a lot of things and I’m not sure he’s helping the president by being on TV every 15 minutes,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told reporters this week.

  • WE are NOT ok!
Never cared for Rudy and always thought that Rudy was going to be one of Trump's downfalls.  Perhaps Trump feels that he's the only one these days that he can trust, but Rudy for heaven's sake needs to take a step back and keep silent until he has his ducks in a row and then act and then proclaim a victory when and if it happens.  Otherwise he's just running his mouth, losing credibility and in doing so not doing Trump any favors.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

   He definitely needs to STFU, possibly start considering what happened to the guy he replaced.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Cohen was a hanger on and Rudy loves the media spotlight. Trump is a destroyer and he will chew up, then spit out anyone who glaums on to him.

For Ukraine help, Giuliani turned to unlikely Florida fixers

WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Donald Trump wanted Ukrainian authorities to investigate his Democratic rival Joe Biden, Rudy Giuliani turned to an unlikely pair of fixers: two Soviet-born business partners from Florida.

Documents show Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman made hundreds of thousands of dollars in political donations to Republicans while facing lawsuits from disgruntled investors over unpaid debts.

The pair used wire transfers from a company they controlled to make a $325,000 donation to a Trump-allied political action committee in 2018. That was on top of $100,000 in earlier donations to Trump and GOP candidates that helped the relatively unknown entrepreneurs quickly gain access to the highest levels of the Republican Party — including face-to-face meetings with the president at the White House and Mar-a-Lago.

Just when you think the ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ embers have completely burned out, here comes Rudy, with a can of gasoline.
