Wolf Blitzer just grilled Rudy Giuliani for the most uncomfortable 10 minutes of television. While Giuliani swore that he was giving the same information to everyone in each interview he’s done, Blitzer couldn’t help but notice that the stories didn’t quite match up. The result was that Giuliani seemed to walk back an entire day’s worth of interviews in just one appearance.

Giuliani swore that he doesn’t speak to any current FBI agents but rather former FBI agents, a story he’s been telling since this morning. That said, he didn’t clarify if he was getting information from former FBI agents who were getting information from current FBI agents. He maintained that his sources were normal public sources and citizens.

“No, I’ve spoken to no current FBI agents, gosh, in the last eight months, nine months, ten months, certainly not about this,” he said. A few seconds later, he continued, “So, I’ve had lots of conversations with them and they have told me a lot about the — I guess the disagreement between the Justice Department on the one hand and the FBI on the other. But it all comes from former FBI agents and it’s all hearsay.”

Blitzer cited the letter that two ranking members on the Congressional committee sent out that references an interview Giuliani gave this morning.

And dance he certainly does!! toward he end of the video:


“But let me ask you a question, Mayor,” Blitzer pressed. “If you don’t know it’s true, why are you suggesting it? Why are you going on national television talking about these issues if you don’t know it’s true?”

Giuliani tap danced around the issue like you wouldn’t believe. Check it out in the video below.

Pretty sure that is where draws the line. He may be sided with other Republican Never Trumpers.

2. A lot of gulping, heavy breathing, and sweating in that interview, even from the very beginning...

...it looks like Giuliani realizes now that he opened his big fucking mouth and he could be in a LOT of legal trouble.

For example, he dance with this phony explanation (not exact quote) - "a lot of FBI agents I knew during mafia investigations". He hasn't been a Federal Prosecutor for more than 25 years! He still knows "a lot" of FBI agents that either are still agents today (highly doubtful)?

Wolf said, "We are getting info,thatnin a Larson interview you said you were talking to active FBI agents. Were you?"

Guliani: "I must have misspoke."

Ok

I just watched the entire interview beginning to end. I actually have no words. I'm sure I'll think of something. I'm going to watch it again.

10. The GOP lives in an alternate reality called "I always get what I want."

Until our reality smacks them in the head. Wolf finally served a purpose: Reality check.

Never thought I'd see the day.

Will I be wrong to think that there is a good chance that Giuliani was the one who instigated the pressure on Comey?
