US president Donald Trump has said that he never directed his personal lawyer Rudy Guiliani to work with Ukraine to dig up dirt on his political opponents. Giuliani has publicly said that he investigated concerns over 2016 Ukrainian collusion and corruption on behalf of the president and now Federal prosecutors are investigating Giuliani’s actions in Ukraine.
Remember that the House of Reps started impeachment proceedings against Trump after a whistleblower alleged that Trump demanded that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, over unsubstantiated corruption allegations while Hunter was a director at an Energy company in Ukraine.
In an interview with Fox News host Bill O’Reilly that streamed online Tuesday, Trump said: “No, I didn’t direct him, but he is a warrior. Rudy has other clients, other than me. He’s done a lot of work in Ukraine over the years.”
