BREAKING RUDY NEWS - He just scooped on Bannon’s podcast today! NOBODY here seems to listen to the Steven Bannon, Raheem Kassam, Jason Miller podcast called War Room Impeachment. So just today I’m listening to Rudy on with them and he just broke big news he was waiting for tomorrow because he’s I think he said 80% proven it and was going to break tomorrow. That the blower was at the meeting in January 2016 with other NSC members talking to Ukraine to dig up dirt on Manafort and Trump campaign. To keep him from being elected and then later...

Video at link. President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani said he doesn’t expect former special counsel Robert Mueller to stray from his Russia report during Wednesday's congressional testimony, adding that anything new would be "highly questionable." “I can’t imagine he’s going to say anything that we don’t know,” Giuliani said during an interview that aired Monday. “If he does, it would be highly questionable — how come you’re saying it now and you didn’t say it in the report.” “And number two: It would be totally unethical,” Giuliani added. “If a prosecutor doesn’t bring a case, then the prosecutor’s got...

Donald Trump got bad reviews in the press — no surprise — when he announced that Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and federal prosecutor, would join his legal team in the Trump-Russia special counsel investigation. The 74-year-old Giuliani is not as sharp as he was, some said, and isn’t really a practising lawyer any more. How can you effectively defend the President by slipping out of fatcat dinners at New York steakhouses for quick hits on Fox News? That was then. Now, it appears hiring Giuliani was a key part of a new and effective Trump strategy....

At its essence, politics is the art of answering the question, "What's in it for me?" If a politician wants to win a vote, whether it's from citizens on Election Day or from another politician in some legislative hall somewhere, he needs to have an answer for the ubiquitous question. And generally speaking, when Republican leaders have put that question to Barack Obama, the president has been unable to provide a viable answer. But sometimes it is. Like when former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani proclaimed last week that Obama does not love America. Guiliani might not have been...

TALLAHASSEE — Jim Greer found a way to get even with Charlie Crist, but the question is how many people will believe it — or pay $32.95 to read about it. The disgraced and imprisoned former chairman of the Republican Party of Florida is the subject of a new book by St. Petersburg author Peter Golenbock. The Chairman: The Rise and Betrayal of Jim Greer is largely a 400-page rant by Greer, who went to prison more than a year ago after pleading guilty to stealing party money. Now at a halfway house in Orlando, he's due to be released...

Joe Biden’s remarks Tuesday in Danville, Va. about the Republican presidential ticket returning some people to “chains” upset a lot of Americans, but former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is advising voters not to take the vice president seriously. Giuliani jabbed at Biden on Tuesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “The Kudlow Report,” saying that the remarks would have been cause for excitement if they were made by a mentally capable politician. “I think if it came from somebody serious, maybe we would get all excited about it,” Giuliani said. “But I think the vice president of the United States has...

Of all the fans showing their support for Giuliana Rancic – who announced she will undergo a double mastectomy Monday – none have been more vocal or more visible than her husband.

Rudy Giuliani said Thursday he made a mistake in 2008 by not dedicating more time to campaigning one-on-one with New Hampshire voters. But he suggested he may ask them to give him a second look. The former New York City mayor, starting a swing through the first presidential primary state, said he would make up his mind about making another White House run by late summer. "We didn't do it the right way" in the last presidential election, Mr. Giuliani told reporters before a speech at an Italian restaurant here. "We were spending so much time trying to raise money...

Tonight in the 10 p.m. hour following the President's State of the Union, Mayor Rudy Giuliana will be a guest on the Fox News Network. Tomorrow morning at 7:10 a.m. Mayor Giuliana will be appearing on the Today show. Please tune in and see what Mayor Giuliana has to say about the President's State of the Union.

Editorialists review the progress made in the fight against terrorism in Europe since last year's deadly attacks on Madrid. Their assessment of our progress? Depressing. A lack of trans-Atlantic cooperation would be one thing, but German states are even having trouble giving each other an investigative hand. AFP A rose lies on a rail in memory of the victims of the train bombings at El Pozo railway in Madrid. No single issue dominates Germany's editorial pages on Friday. A handful reflect on the anniversary of the March 11, 2004 terrorist attack in Madrid. Others look to the unfortunate killing of...

INTERNATIONAL furor over Giuliana Sgrena, an Italian Communist writer who claims American troops in Iraq may have deliberately shot at her car after she was released by kidnappers, misses the bigger scandal. The scandal is not that an anti-war propagandist has accused the U.S. of targeting journalists. That’s par for the course. (Yes, hello again, Eason Jordan.) The scandal is not that mainstream media sympathizers are blaming our military and dredging up every last shooting accident along the treacherous routes to Baghdad Airport. Again, no surprise here. The scandal is that Italy — our reputed ally in the global War...

ROME Mar 10, 2005 — Disputing Washington's version of events, Italy's premier said that an Italian intelligence agent who was shot to death by U.S. troops in Baghdad had informed the proper authorities that he was heading to the airport with a freed hostage. Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi also told lawmakers that the car carrying agent Nicola Calipari and a just-liberated hostage was traveling slowly and stopped immediately when a light was flashed at a checkpoint, before U.S. troops fired on the car. Though the U.S. and Italian versions of what happened Friday do not match up, "I'm sure that...

You'll remember that Giuliana Sgrena claimed her car was shot at "300 or 400 times", among other lies she told that I listed here. It was easy to dismiss that claim as a lie on the spot, but it's even easier now that La Republica has posted photos of the car, but the AP posted clearer images. And thanks to LGF, here they are: As you can see, there's virtually no damage to the car at all. Here's some low-quality photos of an armoured car hit 36 times: We can safely say that an ordinary car hit 300-400 times will...

(AGI) - Baghdad, Iraq, March 8 - The commander of the USA troops in Iraq, General George Casey, announced that a joint Italian-American inquest commission would be created to investigate the shooting during which Nicola Calipari was killed. The investigation will last 3-4 weeks and will be coordinated by General Peter Vangjel, the commander of the 18th air transport corp which has been in Iraq for some time working in anti-terrorism operations. This inquest is in addition to the initial investigation and will be conducted by the multi-national corp in Baghdad. A USA press release said: "The command is working...
