Rudy Giuliani admits he may have been suckered by Russia agent: He ‘didn’t do much investigation’

Published 1 min ago on September 10, 2020By Bob Brigham

Donald Trump defense attorney Rudy Giuliani admitted on Thursday that he may have been played as a fool by Russia in his efforts to slime Joe Biden.

On Thursday, the U.S. Treasury Department accused Andriy Derkach of being “an active Russian agent for over a decade."

Giuliani met with Derkach in his efforts to efforts to pin a Ukrainian scandal on Biden, which was part of the series of events over which Trump was impeached.

Cannot be on both sides of this fence, Rudy.

You are either an American patriot, or a russian pos.

We all know which side he is on.

We know Ghouliani has it hidden in some offshore bank account somewhere.

Ron "Rubles" Johnson is also likely on the take.
