Barr told Trump Giuliani is liability: report

Attorney General William Barr told President Trump that he thinks the president's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, is a liability amid increased scrutiny over Giuliani's involvement in the administration's policy toward Ukraine as part of the House’s ongoing impeachment inquiry, The Washington Post reports.

The newspaper, citing unidentified sources, reports that Barr has expressed concerns to Trump about Giuliani being a liability for the administration. He also reportedly warned Trump in one conversation that the lawyer is not serving him well.

Giuliani’s business dealings in the Ukraine have come under scrutiny in recent weeks as his name comes up in the impeachment proceedings. House Democrats have argued that the lawyer went too far in his efforts to push Kyiv to probe former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading 2020 Democratic president candidate, and his son, Hunter, on unfounded allegations of corruption.

The lawyer is also reportedly under scrutiny as part of an ongoing investigation in the Southern District of New York.

1. So sad to see infighting between the crooked lawyers.

2. Barr is even dumber than I thought. Knowing how Trumpy always goes against good advice....

..if Barr really wanted Rudy off the case, he should have lavished praise, the opposite of what normal people, albeit not trumpy, would do. He swung and missed badly here, but it's great for our side as the master bumbler can do nothing but hurt Trump.

3. This warning is self serving.

While it’s true Rudy will sink the President, he will also put a spotlight on Barr’s questionable efforts to hide the truth of Trump’s wrongdoings from the American people.
