n Sunday, Lindsey Graham revealed that Rudy Giuliani was feeding information about Ukraine and the Bidens directly to the Justice Department. Today, Attorney General William Barr confirmed in a press conference that the Justice Department has set up an “intake process” for any information that Rudy Giuliani may have about Ukraine.
So let me get this straight: Rudy Giuliani, who is under a Justice Department investigation that has led to charges against two of his associates, has a direct line to the Justice Department to funnel dirt about one of Trump’s main political rivals? Meanwhile, Senate Republicans requested documents regarding Hunter Biden’s travels during his father’s tenure as Vice President from the Treasury Department last week. I suppose that since Ukrainian President Zelensky was unwilling to dig up dirt on Trump’s political rival, it’s up to Republican senators and William Barr to take the reins. Our slide toward authoritarianism continues.
