| Federal prosecutors are investigating whether Rudy Giuliani violated foreign lobbying laws in Ukraine |
| 2019-10-12 |
| [Business Insider] Federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York are investigating whether Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's personal lawyer and the former mayor of New York, broke laws governing foreign lobbying, The New York Times reported Friday night. The investigation is related to his work with Ukraine; two sources familiar with the investigation told The Times that investigators are looking into his role in the recall of former US ambassador to Ukraine Marie L. Yovanovitch, who has been a foreign service officer for 33 years and was removed this spring before her post was up. Yovannovitch appeared for a nine-hour, closed-door deposition on Capitol Hill related to an impeachment inquiry into President Trump. In her opening statement, which was released by Politico, she said that Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan told her she "had done nothing wrong" and said there was a "concerted campaign' to remove her, and that the department had been "under pressure from the President to remove [her] since Summer of 2018." Nine hours of desperation. If she had anything to spill it would've already happened while she was still testifying |

| #9 The Dems tends keep pushing phony narratives and made up evidence, they will be sorry they ever opened that door as it will revisit them sometime in the future. That's the way dirty, under-handed politics go. |

| #7 IMO, they're going to discover the difference between a (relatively) straightforward soldier like Mike Flynn and the guy who was a mayor of Big Apple |

| #6 At what point did the Southern District of New York arrogate the authority to monitor the entire US as its 'jurisdiction' ? |

| #5 Funny how they start investigating Giuliani only after they learn that Giuliani is investigating Biden. But I think Biden is not their real concern. Their fear is much too obvious. I think the Ukraine scandal has touched a donkycrat nerve that goes way beyond Biden. |

| #4 Supporting a criminal investigation of Biden and other conspirators has no relationship to lobbying. DS prosecutor's are obstructing justice. |
