Why did nobody tell Trump that it would be a bad idea to get Ukraine to investigate Biden?

    Then who the hell did Giuliani think paid these expenses?

    Maybe Lev Parne's son will chime in?

    ""A New York Times review of documents and text messages and interviews found that Mr. Firtash’s company covered tens of thousands of dollars of Mr. Giuliani’s travel expenses in the summer of 2019, including his stay in the luxury hotel and private jet flight.
    The travel payments did not appear to break any laws, but they show that Mr. Giuliani’s connection to Mr. Firtash was greater than has been publicly known.""

    No documentation from what I can see.... I "don't do.... NYT says"... we need documentation so we can decide on our own.

    Trump Repeats False Claim He Ordered Troops Ahead of Jan. 6 (mediaite.com)

    "Furthermore, if Trump had wanted troops to be present in D.C. on Jan. 6 he could have ordered the D.C. National Guard to activate, which Pelosi could not refuse. “The D.C. National Guard is the only National Guard unit, out of all of the 54 states and territories, which reports only to the President,” notes the “About Us” section on their website."

    Not exactly true. Obama put him in charge of dealing with Ukraine and China. Biden chose to use his power to shake down Ukraine to ensure that the bank account he shared with Hunter would be enriched to the tune of $87K / month --- or Ukraine would be denied $1B in US Aid.

    He boasted about his power here:

    Giulian's lawyer Davis admitted Giuliani's travel money came from Firtash via accidently.

    It's quite telling that Giuliani plays stupid and doesn't say who paid for his travel expenses and luxury accommodations especially when he has a tight relationship with Firtash's American lawyers,Joe DiGenova and wife Victoria Toesing.


    "Rudy Giuliani had no idea that Firtash was paying for those trips,
    "” said Robert J. Costello, Mr. Giuliani’s lawyer, adding that “he certainly would not have allowed it if he had known.”


    "Both Mr. Costello and a lawyer for Mr. Firtash, Lanny J. Davis, said their clients never spoke. “As far as Mr. Firtash knew, he never paid for or authorized any funds to be paid for Giuliani,” Mr. Davis said. The lawyer blamed the payments on “an inadvertent error” by one of Mr. Firtash’s administrative assistants, who he said did not notice Mr. Guiliani’s expenses amid other travel costs and paid for them “without Mr. Firtash’s knowledge or authority.”
