Giuliani Declares He’s ‘The Real Whistleblower’ and Warns ‘If I Get Killed Now You Won’t Get the Rest of the Story’

Published

President Donald Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani has a new twist on the new Trump-Ukraine scandal. Despite the New York Times revealing the intelligence official who filed a whistleblower complaint against the president that has led directly to an impeachment inquiry is a CIA agent, Giuliani is insisting he’s the whistleblower.

“I’m the real whistleblower,” Giuliani told Politico, which adds he “claimed to possess more damaging information and insisted that he, too, should be entitled to whistleblower protections.”

“If I get killed now,” the former NYC mayor warned, “You won’t get the rest of the story.”

Politico took a deep-dive look into the Ukraine story, and it turns out this has been going on at least for months.

“Everybody,” Giuliani added, “thinks Soros is at the bottom of it.”

Soros is billionaire philanthropist George Soros, probably the number one most wrongly-blamed liberal and subject of the right’s insane conspiracy theories.

“Asked on Wednesday about Giuliani’s project,” Politico concludes, “a spokeswoman for Soros’ philanthropy, the Open Society Foundation, responded with laughter.”

Meanwhile, these GIFs from Giuliani’s Fox News appearance Thursday night are going viral.

President Donald Trump’s remarks at an Allentown medical supply facility are being pointed to as proof he not only opposes testing for coronavirus but doesn’t understand why Americans need to be tested.

And he’s getting royally rousted for them.

On Thursday Trump visited an Owens & Minor distribution plant, telling employees in a speech that testing is overrated.

“It could be that testing’s frankly,” he said, taking a long pause, “ah, overrated?”

He also suggested it would be better to not test.

“When you test, you have a case. When you test, you find something is wrong with people. If we didn’t do any testing we would have very few cases.”

Upon learning of the President’s remarks, many mocked him for what sounded like a suggestion the would be less people infected with coronavirus if there were less testing.

‘Ultimate Hypocrisy: Morning Joe Panel Rains Holy Hell on Trump’s ‘Unpatriotic’ Behavior During National Anthem (Video)

MSNBC’s Al Sharpton led an panel that decimated President Donald Trump’s “unpatriotic” behavior during the Sunday Super Bowl performance of the national anthem (video below).

“Kaepernick did not mock the national anthem,” Sharpton noted, saying Trump’s fidgeting and waving his arms in the air as if it was playing just for him to conduct, was “a mockery.”

“I think it was unpatriotic for the President of the United States to act like this was some composition that he could exploit,” Sharpton told the “Morning Joe” panel Tuesday morning, adding that it “shows the ultimate hypocrisy.”

“It’s disgraceful,” Mika Brzezinski added. “Any Republican Senators who need any more evidence about this president needs to look at this video.”

“Unfit,” Joe Scarborough added.

Trump indeed was caught on camera during a Mar-a-Lago Super Bowl party, which cost taxpayers $3.4 million. The national anthem video was posted to the Instagram account of a real estate agent for a Russian-American firm. That agent is reportedly known to regularly spend time at Mar-a-Lago and other Trump properties, as the Miami Herald reported.

House Republicans Have a Plan to Defend Trump During Impeachment Hearings – It’s All About His ‘State of Mind’

Rather than act as impartial investigators, dedicated to ascertaining the facts of the President’s actions, and whether or not those actions were legal, or are impeachable, House Republicans will stick to a plan that focuses on his “state of mind” and other intangible arguments.

“Confronted with a mountain of damaging facts heading into tomorrow’s opening of the public phase of impeachment, House Republicans plan to argue that ‘the President’s state of mind’ was exculpatory,” Axios reports, noting it has obtained an 18-page GOP memo that was sent out to House Intelligence Committee members Monday night.

“To appropriately understand the events in question — and most importantly, assess the President’s state of mind during his interaction with [Ukrainian] President Zelensky — context is necessary,” the memo reads. “The evidence gathered does not establish an impeachable offense,” it insists, wrongly.

Also wrong, or immaterial, are these four critical points the memo directs Republicans to make during the hearings.

“The July 25 call summary — the best evidence of the conversation — shows no conditionality or evidence of pressure.” (False.)

“President Zelensky and President Trump have both said there was no pressure on the call.” (True, but immaterial.)

“The Ukrainian government was not aware of a hold on U.S. security assistance at the time of the July 25 call.” (False.)

“President Trump met with President Zelensky and U.S. security assistance flowed to Ukraine in September 2019 — both of which occurred without Ukraine investigating President Trump’s political rivals.” (Immaterial. Doesn’t matter. Attempts to commit crimes are still crimes.)

You can read the full memo here.

The impeachment inquiry hearings with live, televised witness testimony, begin Wednesday.
