I have a question about Rudy Giuliani.

[Jane Austin]

Tonight on one of the MSNBC shows I thought I heard him say that the FBI should have told him they were send an informant to talk to two people in Trump's campaign because, after all, he was "FBI Man of the Year" for that year.

That struck me as odd, so I've been checking Wikipedia to see if that's among the honors and awards on his page. It's not listed.

Does anyone here know what he's talking about?

Thanks.

1. who is the fbi man of the year for this year ?

i didn't know fbi had man of the year.

sounds like some made up bs for the ignorant right wing audience.

[JHB]

10. Apparently, it is a thing, but I can't find a list

Too much search clutter from other "Man of the year" awards.

2. maybe a premonition

for when he tops the "most wanted list" in a few months time ( after he and the entire Trump crime family decamps to their new digs in Russia )

3. If Trump can get nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize

certainly Rudy has to be a recipient of the FBI Man of the Year Award.

4. Does anyone ever know what he's talking about? NT

6. Including

Rudy. It is much more important to him to hear the sound of his own voice. The words used and the sequence in which they arrive on he scene are much less important.

5. Sort of like an Ace relief pitcher in baseball?

The go-to guy when you have a problem? IOW, FBI Fixer!

[Scarsdale]

7. Wasn't he given advance

information by the FBI? Remember, a couple of times, he knew in advance, what they were going to do? Just think, Rudy could have been president. He could have been Potus, and also been his own FLOTUS (in drag) How much worse could he have been than tRump?

[Frustratedlady]

8. Yes, I heard him say that, as well. I thought I might need to get a hearing aid, as I'd never heard

of him getting that award, either.

But then, we had a family friend who died recently and his obituary listed he'd been awarded the Purple Heart, which was a blatant lie. He was also good at lying, but in your obituary? For real?

So, when it comes to bragging about stuff like that, I turn off my attention and walk away. It won't be the last for Rudy.

[Jane Austin]

12. A guy who married into our family used to brag that

he had a Phd. I checked with the uni he went to, and he had not received any degrees.

Then, when he died, his obituary listed TWO PhDs, one from the school I had checked with and one from another college.

Liars gotta lie, I guess.

[Vinca]

9. I can't find any evidence of such a thing. Rudy's brains must be as scrambled as Don's.

He was Time Magazine "Man of the Year" after 9/11, but no "FBI Man of the Year."

[oberliner]

11. He was being facetious

Giuliani: Clinton 'now running against the FBI, not Donald Trump'

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. — Rudy Giuliani mocked Hillary Clinton and her campaign’s attacks on the Federal Bureau of Investigation for looking at her private email server again, saying on Tuesday: “Hillary is now running against the FBI, not Donald Trump.”

“A week ago, they loved him. Now he's the worst,” said Giuliani, the former New York mayor and prosecutor who is one of Trump's most vocal surrogates.

He compared the treatment of FBI Director James Comey by the Clinton campaign to “what they did to Monica Lewinsky.”

The idea being that he was "FBI man of the year" for defending them so strongly in 2016 (in his mind).
