.MaddowBlog: Facing possible criminal probe, Rudy Giuliani does himself no favors.
Close video The Rachel Maddow Show, 10/11/19, 9:59 PM ET Giuliani under investigation for breaking lobbying laws: NYT Rachel Maddow shares breaking news from the New York Times that Rudy Giuliani is being investigated for whether he broke lobbying laws.
All of this, of course, comes on the heels of Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, two highly controversial Giuliani associates, being taken into federal custody last week, following their alleged illegal campaign contributions, which went to officials whose help they sought in removing Yovanovitch from her post as the U.S. ambassador.
As part of the scheme – again, by Giuliani’s own version of events – he tried to smear a Trump administration official with information he collected abroad, which he then passed along to other Trump administration officials, forcing an ambassador from her post, and clearing the way for a legally dubious campaign scheme to advance.
