https://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/giuliani-demands-docs-on-confidential-fbi-informant-as-condition-of-trump-testimonyTrump has branded as Spygate the news that an FBI informant reportedly contacted members of his campaign in 2016. Giulianis remarks Sunday were part of a frequently contradictory discussion about the informant.
While Giuliani maintained that he was not aware of what was discussed during recent briefings between top intelligence and national security officials and members of Congress (at the outset of which White House chief of staff John Kelly and White House lawyer Emmet Flood were also present), he said that Trump was.
What I know is just what I speculate, not anything thats been said to me, he said. No one has shared it with me.
Im positive that they shared it with the President.

(21,563 posts)or are we actually going to pretend that that wasn't the ENTIRE POINT of this meeting? To facilitate getting this info for drumpf.

(50,269 posts)would come out and blab a totally fictitious story to the media. And they would have if Democrats hadn't demanded inclusion in the briefing. So far it's been crickets from Trumphumping Republicans.

(14,966 posts)those DOJ/FBI people work for Trump. He could know anything they know at any time by instructing them to tell him. There's no reason to pass it to Congresspeople and then have them pass it back to Trump, except to try (and fail) to pretend like he isn't asking for info which would be a norm violation for him to ask for.

I'll say it again, Giuliani isn't representing Dump, he's setting himself up as heir when the shit hits the fan.
