https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/479090-giuliani-says-he-was-misled-by-parnasPardon me for one second:
Sorry, to return to the subject:
President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani said Monday evening that he had been "misled" by Lev Parnas, a close associate who has accused him of conducting an effort to dig up dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden in Ukraine.
In an interview with Fox News's Laura Ingraham, Giuliani asserted that Parnas has made "so many" "misrepresentations" of the facts surrounding Trump's efforts to convince Ukraine's president to open a criminal investigation into Biden, a leading Democratic presidential candidate, and his son Hunter.
"Lev is someone ... I was close to," Giuliani said. "Obviously, I was misled by him. I feel very bad."
"Im not going to respond to him for each and every one of the misrepresentations hes made, because there are so many. If Im called as a witness, Im prepared to do it," he continued.

So Parnas made Giuliani write a letter to President Zelensky asking for him to "find dirt"
on the Bidens?

That's practically an admission of wrongdoing by Giuliani. I wonder how many suspects Giuliani let go because they said they were "misled" by someone worser?

I'd rather have a colonoscopy that watch those two.

(62,465 posts)6. sort of makes sense from a man who said 'truth isn't truth'
and who believes that Trump is the epitome of a truth teller. Good thing Trump hasn't misled old Rudy.

Was any promise Lev made that he could get the Ambassador assassinated.
