like a complete victim. the idea that bob mueller is on this now one year plus wild goose hunt for no apparent reason except to make sure no billionaires in the future wake up and say i am going to save america is completely ludicrous. listening to michael cavuto, listening to rudy giuliani last night and this morning, it s not believable that there is nothing going on here when you consider that there are three separate categories here that mueller is looking at. obstruction of justice, russia collision, and financial crimes as well. i think it does a disservice to the president actually and really eliminates any said they first case besides the core base who loves those tweets that say witch hunts. shannon: let s play more of what rudy giuliani had to say last night. this is what he said about mueller. patriot, and extra ordinarily good man, served his country. did a good job with the fbi.
much last night. he might think he did. here s more of the stunning revelation from president trump s attorney rudy giuliani last night telling fox news that trump reimbursed his fixer michael cohen for the inter130,000 hush money payment to porn star stormy daniels despite president trump s assertion last month that he was unaware of it. having something to do with paying some stormy daniels woman $130,000 which is going to turn out to be perfectly legal. that money was not campaign money. sorry, i m giving you a fact now that you don t know. it s not campaign money. no campaign finance violation. they funneled it through a law firm. funneled it through a law firm and then the president repaid it. oh, i didn t know that. he did? there s no campaign finance law? zero.
fbi agents and the southern district of new york to nazi storm troopers, to stalin, to brown shirts. this is reprehensible and if the republican party cares about having a future, there are people on the hill this morning that need to stand up and speak out in defense of the good men and women at the fbi and yes the prosecutors at the southern district of new york. this is shameful and there is no excusing this. you re talking about rudy giuliani, the former u.s. attorney in the southern district, the mayor of new york city, you re talking about the former speaker of the house newt gingrich who as i said earlier on the same sean hannity show where we saw giuliani last night compared the fbi agents to guess st gestapo. and to circle the wagons around a president who wouldn t lift a finger for them if they were in
the settlement payment which is a regular thing for lawyers to do. the only possible violation there would be was it a campaign finance violation, which usually would result in a fine not this big storm troopers coming in and breaking down his apartment and breaking into his office. that was money that was paid by his lawyer the way i would do out of his law firm funds or whatever funds, doesn t matter. the president reimbursed that over a period of several months. that was rudy giuliani last night on hannity. but here s what rudy said last month about the raid on michael cohen. this was before the former mayor joined the president s legal team. the washington post report reads in part former new york mayor rudy giuliani, a friend of trump, called the cohen raids a little heavy handed. is this surprise, yes, said giuliani, also a former u.s.
he reimbursed for the payment. what does this mean to your case, the revelation from giuliani last night? i think our case just got exponentially better in the last 24 hours. we knew we were going to be able to prove this but we didn t know we would have rudy giuliani appear on sean hannity and do it for us on a wednesday night this early on in the case. the importance of this cannot be overstated. this is not about sex. this isn t about what happened between stormy daniels and donald trump in the bedroom. it s not about what happened in 2006 or 2007. i ve been saying this all along. this is about a coverup. it s about lies told to the american people. it s about people trying to pull the wool over people s eyes that citizens of this country. they deserve to know the truth. we ve been saying this all along. we still don t know the truth. and for instance if, in fact, what is suggested here last night by rudy giuliani is, in fact, true, namely that law firm invoices for make-believe w
