Rudolph W. Giuliani. By Paul Waldman Paul Waldman Opinion writer covering politics Email Bio Follow Opinion writer May 10 at 12:30 PM There are some news stories so jaw-dropping that you have to read them two or three times to make sure you’re not hallucinating. So it is with a story in the New York Times in which Rudolph W.
Last week, another New York Times report raised questions about conflicts of interest over Joe Biden’s work carrying out Obama administration policy with regard to Ukraine, which included pressing for anti-corruption reforms.
“We’re not meddling in an election, we’re meddling in an investigation, which we have a right to do,” Mr. Giuliani said in an interview on Thursday when asked about the parallel to the special counsel’s inquiry. This isn’t some kind of freelancing on Giuliani’s part. The earlier article in the Times reported that Giuliani called Trump to brief him during his meeting with the Ukrainian prosecutor, and Giuliani “acknowledged that he has discussed the matter with the president on multiple occasions.”
The same thing is happening now, except in a much more explicit and direct way. And thanks to Giuliani’s big mouth, there isn’t any mystery or ambiguity about what’s happening.

He doesn't need another country!
Trump is the first president who took serious and effective steps to protect integrity of our elections. Before him nothing was done.
Wimpy post pushing propaganda.
WAPO TRAITOROUS
Omg...is this SNL skit?
Well, collusion is not a crime znd not in the legal books! Remember the Mueller probe? You have to prove, not just a desire, enthusiasm or opportunity, but importantly, conspiracy!
To investigate the dem’s Urkrain Collusion in the 2016 election, buddy.
NFL4SanAntonio You are fake news Washington Post. Ukraine has evidence of the collusion in 2016 of the DNC. The DOJ in Washington wouldn't accept it. Quit cherry picking and lying. Anything for division in this country. You should be sued.
And when Rudy submits his 'Giuliani Dossier' we'll know for sure.
SacNewsReview ...okay...prove it...that’s right, you can’t...because getting butthurt is not a criminal charge...
False
Typical narcissistic hypocritical Trump
You really don’t have anything to write other than conspiracy theory? He doesn’t need collusion to win, because the USA people will choose him.
No surprise he’s such a pig
There appears to be no repercussions for soliciting help from foreign powers if your a sitting president...isn’t that we’ve learned so far from 2016?
Lock him and the other bastards up!
Never stopped
No he's trying to obey the law. There is evidence that Hillary Clinton orchestrated this entire Russian investigation in order to overthrow the government. But evidently you don't care about that.
Liberal fantasy opinion. Or fake News.
Trump needs foreign help again to get elected via the Electoral college. The popular vote will go to any Democrat running
Tutti Fruity Rudy, the gift that KEEPS on giving.
Not this again just let it go get him on something else
Here we go again...
All Potus has to do to win in 2020, keep producing for those forgotten for years. Prosperity for all races is a WINNER.
I don’t care actually is doing more than the last jokers in office...
Uh, has been?
Was TrAmp fair at least once in his life?
Get him out already!
Opinion: The washington post is garbage!
These guys are committing treason. These are the most corrupt men in the world.
He is not going to go
Yep, just a few more congenial phone calls to Putin, Trump's handler.
putinsclown the propaganda never ends with you guys. Unfortunate Anyhow,he doesn't need to 'collude' you dips**t's! His approval is ticking upwards and is higher than Obama's was,this time in 2008. Not to mention,he has a mountain of success to tout NoMoreDemocrats
The W-Post is just a cheap propagating polarized rag.
It was easy for RudyGiuliani to coordinate the trip to Ukraine to gather dirt for the up coming election because the contacts had been made a couple of years ago.
Ok for Hillary though
That is a lie and knows that is s lie. Why is spreading lies reading lies?
Such corruption. What a disgrace and the Gop party allows it to go on. This WH is putting us all in danger and they don't care so long as they're making money. Sickening
Try Hillary and the Ukraine
You do know it is a joke. WP is so dull!
There’s a reason this is labeled as “opinion”: it is free of all facts & a desperate attempt to deflect attention from the Ukrainian government’s on-going investigation of Hillary & Biden for collusion w/Ukrainian officials to dig up dirt on Trump & Manafort. Russia-gate is SOL.
Leftist Media and Dems still pushing the 'collusion delusion', trying to impeach anyone who gets in their way, anyone who will soon expose them for what they are.
NFL4SanAntonio Haven't you figured out that no one cares about your 💩head opinions.
No they are “investigating”! MAGA!
And Democrats are doing nothing.
They REALLY THINK, they are getting away with their Criminal Acts... Obstruction of Justice & Once again Conspiracy, collusion, fuckusion... POTUS And his Clown, RudyGiuliani. It's gonna be so fun watching them, Disappear, from the streets of DC!
How long will it be before Rudy realizes Rump is going to throw him under a bus?
Screw it politics have changed Clinton is right come on China let’s get dirt on trump
Just because you yahoos don’t like the man well tough shit. What does your 401k look like? Why do you want to give Democrats and your money and freedoms? Get a clue!
Well he couldn’t win without Russia and now knows he can’t win without Ukraine that’s why he is a illegitimate president and will go down in history as such.
Zzzzzzzz
Come on, get serious.
Ohh this again😂😂😂😂
😠
WaPo your opinion sucks again. Trump has every right to send lawyers to Ukraine and get a investigation into the collusion issue. Mueller went there and ignored the DNC, Podesta brothers, Biden & son and Clintons illegal activity there. Hope Guiliani gets the cooperation.
Not even a meeting for the betterment of the USA.
Bullshit opinion
Getting facts on Biden and Hillary.
WaPo WaPo WaPo
😂🤣😆
some may call it Treason
You guys have to give up that nonsense. Your party is already deep in the shit hole. Lowest unemployment in American history today. What happened to Obamas Hope and Change? lol
SpeakerPelosi collusion with a foreign govt in plain sight HAS TO BE IMPEACHABLE, no? How much rope do we need
Opinion:Analysis:Perspective:
The Republican Party sees nothing wrong in what the Presidents lawyer is saying. He asked a foreign government to insert itself in the next election to aid Trump. Our law enforcement community sees nothing wrong with that?
The same government the dems colluded with in 2016?😂😂😂 this is laughable
In a way it's a smart move by Giuliani. It gives them more ways to weasel out of it.
Doing it in full public view. What will be the reaction from the public?
The DNC spin machine hard at work to spin Biden’s potentially dirty business in Ukraine. WaPo is MSNBC is Huff Post....the lengths these people go to to protect the democrats is unreal. Democracy dies where again?
This time right out in the open.
Post — You have -0- credibility anymore‼️
Correct Opinion: The Washington Post is already colluding with the mainstream media to spew hate about the 2020 election.
Yea, let’s start that again! 🙄
He won’t need any help in 2020. Trust and believe that
I wonder how FakeNews Washington post and their ultra liberal staff reconcile their wholeness with the fact that their parent company doesn’t pay income taxes LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder
RudyGiuliani should be arrested. He should be disbarred also!
so much for the 'Collusion Delusion' claim....
The only way he can win. drainrthetrumpswamp
Old habits die hard, I guess. Rudy
Finally, someone says it. They got away with doing it the first time, so now they are taunting us as they do it again.
Good Lord,RUDY!! Whatever happened to “America’s Mayor?” Of all of the crazies, your case is one of the saddest and most baffling. Who scooped out every shred of self-awareness from your head and replaced it with pure, elemental batshit?
Biden his son for prison
And Biden?
Can WAPO sue him?
Why not?! Not so much as a hand slap last time.
Rudy is just doing opposition Research on Biden, atleast he is doing out in the open not by the fbi
The washington post is pretty much the national enquirer.....fake news
Yes, i am part of that foreign government in California. Trump 2020.
How desperate?
🤣🤣🤣Like The DNC and Hillary hiring Christopher Steele to work with Russians. So funny the Democrats are outraged when the shoe is on the other foot!🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha. Idiots
This move is beyond stupid!
Man how he’s changed since 9/11. Sad.
I can’t believe this ok.
Another BS option article.
🎶lunatic is on the grass🎶
Oh someone is gonna find out something that ain't good for the liberals. Watch out the Clintons will put a hit out for you.
Figures
Wrong
WhistlingWhist It worked the first time, and he got cleanish away with it so it's never going to stop now.
This is such a blatant lie. You all have accused him of collusion for years. We need to know what happened.
Impeach
BS
who Finland. South Africa?
Fake news
“: Opinion: Trump is already colluding with a foreign government to get reelected
Con man
Azusa!. Asscap
Fake anti American crap
Funny considering Obama admin let it happen, the clintons received hundreds of millions from Russia in “donations”, and Biden and son also have received money from them. But, it’s Trump colluding with Russia. Lol!
Washington post. The new national enquirer.
WaPo Opinion in one hand...crapola in the other, which is full of content?
Biden threaten to end loans to the Ukraine if a prosecutor didn’t stop investigating his son. That’s not a problem, but finding out why they stopped is?
You will never change him until you get him inside prison then then he will sob like a baby
That’s not an opinion. That’s a fact.
Trump is a fake ( Fact ) Trump is Bankrupt ( Fact ) Trump is Orange (Fact ) Trump is an idiot (Fact) Trump is racist ( Fact ) America Voted for Trump what does that say about Americans?
This is the last straw!
It’s called investigation, WAPO. You remember how to do that instead of whoring for the Democrats? Sad
Worked the first time
Yup
Crooks emboldened by the lack of consequences
Trump collusion = Obama spying
DonnaBeumler America’s mayor is now America’s enemy
Only delusional democrats believe that
Opinion? Great work 👌 The media is definitely not the enemy of the people.
The WP is colluding with stupidity.
Democrat: 'You colluded with Russians.' FBI+DOJ: 'No he didn't.' Democrat: 'You can't investigate our crimes.' FBI+DOJ: 'Hold my beer.'
What else is new? He is possessed so the strategy is demonically brilliant.
No collusion- no obstruction!
Thought the media would want to know WHY JOE BIDEN'S SON is being INVESTIGATED in UKRAINE. Did Joe Biden use his INFLUENCE as the head of the UKRAINE PORTFOLIO under Obama....to get his SON into BUSINESS....did he exploit his position to corruptly influence decisions in UKRAINE?!
Washington Post do what you do best Run cover for the Democratic Party. Nothing to see here Clinton Foundation donation made by Ukraine and Russian. Nothing to see here. Hey China how much did you give to Hilary to sell out America
I think Rudy is just excited thinking he might get to do what Donnie did.
That is a lie....there is nothing wrong with following up with investigations in Ukraine involving Joe Biden's son....Joe Biden had the Ukrainian Portfolio under his wing...why is his son being investigated in Ukraine where he was the head of that PORTFOLIO. Suspicious!!!!
Sounds pretty treasonous. One more charge for impeachment.
Yes that same Foreign government that gave Hunter Baiden a position in a Gas company. The Ukraine people are also involved with the Russian hoax. But the Washing Post is lazy to do some work!
You are a fake newspaper you let your feelings into your newspaper instead of the actual news
Hey look, JW sued, and got evidence of the scandal!!
Really TeamPelosi? Do we want to just allow trump to pull this crap again?
Lmao keep it up
Is it illegal? No? Then so what. You know what is illegal? Lying to the FISA court.
Trump Attorney Giuliani to Travel to Ukraine
Good for him
Do you ever post anything but opinions? Wow how you like posting options as news.
He never stopped, his business is funded by them.
Giuliani is Trump bagman to entice Ukraine political leaders to interfere with American candidates & election campaigns. Trump & Giuliani have definitely learned from Putin. Sad.
Obama caught whispering to Medvedev...'I'll have more flexibility AFTER MY election'. Hmmm sounds like Obama was getting assistance from Putin.🤔
Does Rudy think he’s incognito with that hair dye job? Wait, no—he’s openly bragging about colluding with a foreign government to effect our 2020 election. Same as 2016. Guess pretending that’s normal continues to be their strategy. It’s not normal. It’s treasonous. Lock him up!
people need to stop whining about this. it doesn’t seem to matter. if the system isn’t built to do anything about it, then fuck it. do it.
We don’t want to hear about Russia Russia again go pound sand
Birtherism 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, . . .
What does Trumpski have to loose?..Hes fighting for his political life. If he does nothing and goes with just issues , he a dead man walking. If he doesn't fight impending impeachment hes a dead man walking.. He has no choice but to keep up with the collusion and obstruction😬
That is a photo of Giuliani laughing at the Constitution.
Hunter Biden, son, on the board of Burisma Holdings. Ukraine gas. Biden make speech available on you tube talking about his pressuring government which apparently was investigating Hunter's involvement. Look it up.
Why the media in the US ignoring the voter's opinion? Why it has to be a foreign country that decided who is the next president for the most powerful country in the world? Please respect your country and people
You mean the one the DNC colluded with to effect the election? Or the one that gave Hunter Biden a prime gig for which he had no experience? Or the one who Daddy Joe had the prosecutor fired..for looking into said unqualified son? That one?
Who's paying for the trip? Who is he meeting with? Oleg Deripaska? What promises does he return?
Opinion from who? The National Enquirer?
Rudi is seeking dirt against Joe Biden....his son had some kind of relationship with Ukraine....
Is this a Bezos fact
🙄
That because our esteemed AG said trump was completely exonerated. The trump administration took that to mean they can do anything they want. Laws? What laws? They are only laws if they are enforced.
DeniseDM5 Trump is a criminal and Rusty is just batshit crazy desiring relevancy. Both of them need to retire and go away
Wut? 😂 Dudes, try to do journalism, someday
Sucks when you get beat at your own game. Then again losing is the only thing Dims know how to do.
And finally Republicans can say.... what are you scared of him finding 🖕
[P]atriots [A]re [N]ow [I]n [C]ontrol
Not colluding. Conspiring. Colluding is not a thing. Conspiring is.
Israeligate!
Trump is so scared of losing the election that he’s openly colluding with a government. Or maybe he’s that stupid to believe he’s untouchable as potus he can collude all he wants. Collusion is not a crime but it’s unethical and shady.
Arrest Giuliani as soon as he returns from Ukraine.
Hehehe! You guys don’t like it now that he’s taking the war back to you do you? He’s coming for Comey, Obama, Clinton, Schumer, Pelosi, Feinstein and every other TheDemocrats he can. Glorious!
Which country? Israel?
Looks Like Giuliani, Trump’s Team of WHINY HYPOCRITE REPUBLICANS are ACCUSING & TRYING BIDEN in Public without EVIDENCE.
This ridiculous stunt by Rudy was done to catapult a fake story from right wing blogs into MSM. No truth. Just more lies and deception from Trump. Just like the birther bs. RussianDisinformationTactics
Yeah...did u ask for a special counsel already. biasedmedia
What’s a little more collusion after so much other tRump/Repug BS?
The Treasonous GOPs got away with Collusion once,now they are doing it brave and bold?
The argument that Rudy is a 'private citizen' not affiliated with Trump or his campaign is nonsense. Rudy has been Trump's lawyer. Now that Cohen is in prison Rudy is Trump's fixer?
SpeakerPelosi WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!!! We are sick and tired of this despicable human being being allowed to get away with this behaviour. It's time to put up or shut up. ImpeachHisAssNow !!!!
FakeNewsMedia
Please Mueller vs Trump do not be distracted
Never mind WP Ben Bradlee is rolling over in his grave flipping you the bird...
But you know what, it's not going to matter. We have gone through it once.
The system is broken.
The longer it goes the harder it will be to arrest
Rudy has to be the worlds dumbest attorney.
How shocking. I thought this shit was against the law. I guess it's not? Confusing. I tell you what, it's not right. We are America. Since when do we need shit hole countries like Russia and others to support our President. Traitor Trump is taking our good name. Grouse.
FakeNews
Trump is a natural born traitor.
I thought Mueller did NOT find any evidence
💩 blame congress for keeping him in office, it’s obvious they don’t care. It’s a shame this man gets away with everything ! Had that been President Obama all hell would have broke loose to impeach him.
Father of Colorado school shooter Alec McKinney is serial felon and illegal immigrant
Wapos press credentials taken away for Whitehouse Releases story saying Trump colluding with foriegn govnt 2020 Yep, wapo salty salty salty, checks out
Dude. Just stop already.
LPeterP These are the kind of people that will continue to test the boundary until they face consequences. They are taking this country to whole other place. They will continue.
This is such a lie. This paper is really becoming a rag.
Making up stories... while ignoring the fact that UKRAINE ADMITTED COLLUDING WITH DEMS!!! The Democrat party is gone...out of their damn minds.
Haha. Sure!!! LOL
Call up, the Marines!! Surely, THEY, Care About Defending America! Democratic Govt Values! Or do they? Feels like a TV Reality Show where the Criminals are feeling their oats & don't see their downfall, around the corner. Getting off Twitter Shit-train!
The richest man's hobby is getting pathetic.
Launch the investigation.
Trump is the worst thing that has ever happened to our system of government.
False Where do you guys come up with this stuff?
Collusion
As you can see by viewing RudyGiuliani face & by proxy, realDonaldTrump, are laughing at the American public & flaunting behavior that is unethical, immoral & verges on illegality. SAD PATHETIC IMPEACH DrDavidKatz HuffPost nytimes nancystaack GloriaBB2 susancain
Hope he gets to Ukraine & they WHUP his 'Lying for tRump' arse!!
Quick, call Saint Mueller!
No ... NO ... now them claim Rudy is not acting on behalf of the campaign but as a private citizen....I think we private citizens should fund a private person to get Trump's information with Epstein...lets start a go fund me account
Bwaaaaa
Wake up people. Our democracy is in danger.
If it's in the WaPo then it's really a load of crap.
Leftist FakeNews is relentless! MAGA2020
It worked the first time...and the GOP stays silent
I am even more likely to vote for his opponent. I don't care what they come up with anymore.
This sums it up. Trump is a danger to America and the World. Trump does not care about what benefits the US. He cares only about enriching himself and pleasing his (often foreign) backers and indirectly colluding with a foreign government to get reelected.
Go to the streets. It time to stop this assault on our democracy. STOP IT NOW.
Thank you for covering this story,this should be the number one story in the news.
don’t you ever get tired of spreading false news? Can you for once publish some fact based articles?
Hillary and her Ukraine connected johnpodesta has been outed
What the hell. Biden EXTORTED Ukraine by withholding $1,000,000,000 from them if they did not FIRE the head Prosecuter who was prosecuting his Son, Hunter Biden. He was fired 6 hours later HYPOCRITES!!!! In Biden's own words.
Maybe if half of America would be nice to him he wouldn’t have to turn to Russia. 😂
Has the wapo checked out Biden’s and Clinton’s ties to personal wealth gain? No. Sad and pathetic.
If at first leftist fail, they try try again. ''The definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over, while expecting a different result.''
Whatever
They say he went over there as a private citizen. Who paid for the plane ticket?
Read it and weep.
Just like he did the first time right?
Lotter says Giuliani going only as private citizen.
Only Trump would hire a big mouth attorney like Giuliani
altFBI CIA NSAGov Please, just do something about this — finally.
everybody's doing it. like Guaido in Venezuela. inviting foreign 'help.' it's all the rage!
It worked so well before, why stop now.
Opinion: The Post enjoys publicly humiliating itself. 🤪
Getting away with it once, why not try again!😡
Is that the same government that colluded with the DNC in 2016?
.realDonaldTrump : NO COLLUSION HERE!!!! FAKE NEWS!!!
Looking for more help from abroad for the next American Election This is the problem w/allowing Bold n Brash Lawlessness ... It has no limits, especially for those w/o honor, integrity or patriotism
He never stopped
