Giuliani says WH wants briefing on classified meeting, thinks it could end Mueller probe (Updated)
The Hill ^ | May 25, 2018 | John Bowden

Posted on 05/25/2018 4:23:31 PM PDT by jazusamo

Rudy Giuliani said Friday that the White House wants a classified briefing with the details shared with lawmakers this week on the origin of the FBI's Russia investigation, and hopes to use that information to justify ending Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation.

In an interview with The Associated Press, the former New York City mayor said that the White House wants a readout of the information presented to lawmakers, particularly on the FBI's use of Stefan Halper, an informant who contacted several members of the Trump campaign.

“If the spying was inappropriate, that means we may have an entirely illegitimate investigation,” Giuliani said of Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

This breaking news story will be updated.

Excellent theory. You should pass it on to Sara Carter and Rush Limbaugh.

“Why would Guiliani publicly explain their strategy? That will be the spin from the media and Dems all weekend.”


This can’t be done in secret. The reasons have to be transparent and clear to all. Giuliani is preparing the public for Mueller’s dismissal and hopefully the indictment of the people involved in setting up a case of domestic espionage against the opposition political party’s candidate. These are felony charges that could see these people in prison for a decade or more.

It means the end of the UK-US alliance as well, should they adopt any attitude short of complete and total cooperation.

All these people are looking at multiple counts of felonies - I’d wager every last one is looking at life in prison or execution.

Which people are you referring to looking at multiple felonies and life imprisonment/execution?

July 4th is a Wednesday and will be a perfect Day for Trump to blow up Mueller and his gang and the other deep state creeps by ordering a declassification of all FISA warrants and other docs the DOJ FBI have refused to cough up.
UNREDACTED.
As President Trump can order this.

Every single person on the suspect list committed more than one act in furtherance of the conspiracy. So you name the suspect, they’re looking at life or death.

Mueller is staffed with pro-Obama, pro-Hillary, pro-DNC Democrap attorneys. Birds of a feather ....

At best, Mueller will end his witch hunt but under no circumstance will he exonerate the President. As a private citizen, he will continue to malign the President with book deals, interviews, etc. Mueller and his crew of liberal attorneys will never raise a finger to go after the Democrap criminals responsible for this faux investigation.

I don’t think that is necessarily true. Word is, they still weren’t shown an unredacted copy and are pissed off. There is a showdown coming.

Something tells me this is a very stupid move on their part.

You don’t trifle with the President’s family and get away with it; it is my understanding that Trump is very vindictive when crossed and monkeying with his family is not something one does if one is concerned about one’s health and general well being.

“I hope you are right!”

Me too. I’ve been watching this Russia Collusion Hoax and wondering what would unwind it. IMHO, Rudy well knows what is in hand and will be hammering the hell out of Mueller at the appropriate time.

When that information is made public, it must be devastating to Mueller’s pretext to maintain an “investigation.” They’ve gone nuts at The Hill and it’s fun to go over there and blast them with the facts and their impending doom.

Excited with this little holiday weekend nugget. Wherever you are Rudy, thank you!

“It was POTUS Obama himself who authorized the use of surveillance on Team Trump. “

O’muslim was using the IRS against political opponents in 2009. He’s been illegally spying on his ‘enemies’ since he was sworn in. We had marxists maoists and muslims in charge of the executive branch for 8 years... The Obama regime was a treason regime.

Imperator Rectum is late to the painfully obvious. A good attempt to sound like Conservative nuthouse, though.

“Rudy is not as sharp as he was.”

Maybe it is a slam dunk case, and he was brought on to enjoy taking part, because he is old friends with Trump.

Nice synopsis.

Basically, to further synopsize, homobama employed foreign intelligence so as to circumvent the law in order to spy on, and destroy political opponents.

“What they’re hiding is that McConnell and Ryan have known all about this since the beginning. “

AND that Obama colluded with the British government to bring down Trump via illegal spying. Hillary probably involved too.
