Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani confirmed Wednesday night that at least some of the documents in the packet of “disinformation” that State Department Inspector General Steve Linick handed over to Congress in an “urgent” briefing came from him.
According to CNN, the packet includes fodder for the fabricated Joe and Hunter Biden smears, as well as rightwing accusations against former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch that forced her resignation.
Giuliani gave the documents to the State Department.
According to CNN, staffers at the briefing were “puzzled” by the urgency with which it was characterized, as the content seemed to be pure Giuliani fantasy.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the sole lawmaker who attended, said that the packet is “a series of somewhat hallucinatory propagandistic suggestions that are very consistent with the things Rudolph Giuliani has been saying,” and fretted that it could be a “distraction” to the impeachment inquiry going forward.
Rudy, Rudy, Rudy…
9/11 ain’t gonna save your ass this time…
Has Trump fired Rudy yet?
Disinformation packet from the TV lawyer of the Extortionist-in-Chief…color me shocked!
There would be more of disinformation/red herrings as the impeachment inquiry goes on…and more so onwards to 2020!
D + I voters and non-fake press…put on your thinking caps, add a healthy dose of Sherlock and a very healthy dose of prudence & patriotism!

The urgency seems pretty clear to me: Linick wants to make sure these docs, and more importantly the fact that they were being spread around State and the White House, got into the hands of Congress before they got shredded and before Linick is out of a job. This is evidence that State was involved with Bidenghazi and all other bullshit conspiracy theories that Trump was pursuing with US government resources.
