"Comey Fingers...Giuliani As Possible Leaker in House Testimony"

Comey Fingers Rudy Giuliani As Possible Leaker in House Testimony

.... “I was concerned that there appeared to be in the media a number of stories that might have been based on communications reporters, or nonreporters like Rudy Giuliani, were having with people in the New York field office,” Comey replied.

“In particular, in I want to say mid October, maybe a little bit later, Mr. Giuliani was making statements that appeared to be based on his knowledge of workings inside the FBI New York,” Comey continued, likely referring to an October 2, 2016 interview in which Giuliani teased “surprises” from the Trump campaign. ....

Those concerns prompted Comey to initiate a leak investigation, the status of which he does not know, according to the testimony.

Giuliani admitted that he was questioned about the leaks by the Justice Department, confirming that the investigation exists.

Giuliani denied leaking information from FBI sources, but his public appearances alone were enough to arouse the suspicions of the then-FBI director. Time will tell if his answers to the Justice Department were satisfactory, but it’s a safe bet they left no stone un-turned.

I would guess he's the source of many leaks. He's a blowhard and can't resist showing off his inside "knowledge."

Ghouliani knew and was involved in the effort that took place in the FBI NY office to destroy the HRC campaign before it happened.

I pray the investigation concludes properly.

Nosferatu (Giuliani) is an evil man and he deserves whatever fate befalls him.

He'll call Rudy up and say was it you? Rudy will say of course not, and then Trump will believe him even less than he did before he called.

Somewhere, Frank Luntz is yelling, "but I swear, I didn't tell them how to do that! I may have to sue for copyright infringement!"
