Rudy Giuliani is still Trump's attorney, but won't deal with Ukraine matters, source says

Source: CNN

Rudy Giuliani is still President Trump's personal attorney but will not be dealing with matters involving Ukraine, a source close to Trump's legal team told CNN. Earlier today, Trump wouldn’t say whether Giuliani was still his personal attorney.

“Well I don’t know. I haven’t spoken to Rudy. I spoke to him yesterday briefly. He’s a very good attorney and he has been my attorney, yeah, sure,” he told CNN.

Asked later by CNN if he was still Trump’s attorney, Giuliani responded, Yes."
"“There are no Ukraine issues. I finished that in March. I’m still representing him," Giuliani said."

However, Ukraine is at the center of the current impeachment investigation being conducted by the House of Representatives into Trump. Also, the criminal indictment against two of Giuliani's associates who were arrested Wednesday night trying to leave the US, describe an elaborate, months-long scheme to funnel foreign money into federal and state elections around the US to curry favor with politicians on behalf of at least one Ukrainian government official and a Russian businessman.

Rudy wasn't a good enough Attorney. Trump has his BIG GUN working on this now. He'll collect as much false "dirt" in a week as Rudy has in months.

Rudy.........YOU'RE FIRED!
