Rudy Giuliani, a former attorney for ex-president Donald Trump and mayor of New York City, made a statement that he informed a U.S. attorney about a whistleblower who had evidence of a bribery scheme involving Joe Biden on an international level. However, he claims that his warning was ignored and the whistleblower later died under suspicious circumstances.
On Newsmax, the ex-lawyer of Trump talked about the former chief accountant of Burisma, who has since passed away. Burisma is the Ukrainian oil and gas company that paid Hunter Biden hundreds of thousands of dollars to hold a board position.
In an interview with Rita Cosby on “Saturday Report,” Giuliani mentioned special counsel Jack Smith, who investigated Trump’s handling of classified documents. This ultimately resulted in Trump’s federal indictment. Giuliani noted that Smith emphasized the importance of a single system of laws in the United States that applies equally to everyone.
According to Giuliani, the Pittsburgh attorney general was initially in charge of the case, but it was later transferred to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware under the former Attorney General William Barr. Giuliani expressed disappointment in the Delaware office’s lack of action, stating that the person involved was in danger of being killed.
“Well, of course, that’s the most ridiculous, idiotic statement to make on a day in which we find out that the Bidens took a $10 million bribe from a Ukrainian Mykola Zlochevsky, which I could have told you, you know, and did tell [the DOJ] three years ago. And they followed up on none of the evidence I gave them. They were hoping that people would disappear or die. It’s extraordinary.”
Giuliani informed Cosby that the former chief accountant at Burisma, who has since passed away, expressed a willingness to reveal the offshore bank account information related to the Ukrainian company.
“It’s extraordinary,” he said. “I gave them one witness that any investigator would jump through hoops to go to. Gave them a witness who is a woman who was the chief accountant at this crooked company, Burisma. She was the wife of the former owner who died under suspicious circumstances. And, she was willing to give up all of the offshore bank accounts, including the Bidens’ accounts. She supervised the transfer of a lot more cash to the Bidens and other crooked politicians for Burisma.”
“Are you confident that now the House Committee is going to get to the bottom of that?” Cosby asked. “Because that is stunning.”
“The reality is that we gave it to them in January of 2020, and the Pittsburgh US attorney was very interested,” Giuliani replied. “And then in a very strange move, Barr took it away from him, gave it to the US attorney in Delaware. He didn’t do a damn thing about it. And the woman was under threat of death.”
“So, we tried to put pressure on them to do something,” he continued. “Look, suppose she was lying. You would find out in a minute she wouldn’t have the accounts. She either has the goods or she doesn’t. And it’s absurd not to interview her. She claims she had bank accounts and that the Biden’s got a lot more money under the table than already.”
“We had $8 million on the table that we could prove, which they could prove tomorrow if they wanted to they could have proved it three years ago, Rita, he added. “They could have indicted him before he ran for president and obviated this problem. We could have found out if he was innocent or guilty in January of 2020. All the witnesses were there, and I have him on tape like Shokin. Shokin was willing to come and testify.”
The Federal Bureau of Investigation provided the House Oversight Committee members with a FD-1023 document that contained the name of an informant. However, the name has been redacted and remains unknown. The FBI claims that the name is being withheld to protect the safety of the informant.
