Where hasn’t Rudy Giuliani stuck his ass since Donald Trump became president?
While Republicans are complaining that diplomats are “unelected,” unelected Rudy Giuliani is engaging in shadow diplomacy in Ukraine and other nations while also working on his personal business deals. Is he working for the State Department or as Trump’s personal attorney? It’s confusing because he’s tried to have it both ways. He says he has attorney-client privilege because he’s Trump’s personal lawyer, but if he’s working for the Justice Department, then he doesn’t have that privilege.
It was reported Friday night that Giuliani butt-dialed an NBC News reporter on October 16 and his ass left a voicemail. What did Rudy’s ass have to say? A lot of it was incomprehensible, much like any Rudy interview, but what was made out is Rudy discussing the kingdom of Bahrain and needing a “few hundred thousand” dollars. The weird thing is…OK, weirder, is that it’s not the first time Rudy has butt-dialed a reporter. If Donald Trump was smart, and he’s not, he’d find a better lawyer or at least one who can operate a smartphone.
Trump’s other buttpoodle, William Barr, has dragged his ass all over the Justice Department like a dog on the carpet. It was revealed Friday that the Justice Department’s investigation into the Justice Department over the Russia investigation is now a criminal probe. Barr is seeking to send people to jail for the crime of investigating Russian collusion into the 2016 presidential election.
Barr, Trump, and Republicans claim the department “spied” on the Trump campaign. They’ve been chasing a conspiracy theory that it was Ukraine, not Russia, who meddled in the election, and not in favor of Trump but of Hillary Clinton. They believe the Democratic National Committee’s server is in Ukraine. These theories have been debunked. What did happen is that Russia meddled in the election, in favor of Trump, and while neither Obama or the Justice Department spied on the Trump campaign, Russia at least attempted to. Funny how these “patriots” are all riled up about conspiracy theories and hoaxes but haven’t expressed any outrage over foreign nations attacking our country. Now, Russia and other nations hostile to us have clearance to continue attacking our nation knowing Trump’s administration will ignore them and punish those in law enforcement who try to protect our nation.
Sure, internal reviews, from police departments to the Justice Department, should always be conducted. But if we’re more concerned about punishing the people investigating foreign spies than the actual spies, something is messed up. Donald Trump, William Barr, and the entire Republican Party are punishing the FBI while protecting Russian spies. That’s a bunch of butt.
Donald Trump, with buttpoodle William Barr, has totally politicized the Justice Department. It’s not seeking justice. It’s seeking retribution for the crimes of investigating Donald Trump…or anything close to him. This is an authoritarian act.
After Trump is removed from office, we need to remove every official he’s appointed, including judges. Every appointment was made possible by Russia and Vladimir Putin and if we don’t remove them, then Putin’s ass will be staining our nation for decades to come.
Trump, Barr, and Rudy should all land in prison. Let’s just hope Rudy doesn’t butt-dial anyone with his one phone call. Hopefully, when all this is said and done, we’ll never hear from any of their asses ever again.

I don’t have a smartphone (my dumphone does phone calls and alarms, that’s all), but I’ve seen Hubby’s smartphone. 1) NO WAY could someone carry that in a back pocket; s/he couldn’t sit down and, since these cost a pretty penny, neither would s/he WANT to sit on it; and 2) NO WAY could anyone ‘accidentally butt dial’ . . . too many steps to go thru to actually make a call.
So, in these days of ‘hoaxes’ and ‘conspiracy theories’, I’ll add another . . . Rudy is doing this intentionally. OR his phone is smarter than he is and IT is doing the calling intentionally.
As for ridding us of everyone ever appointed by drumpf . . . THIS is why I want him INDICTED, rather than impeached. Impeachment is, when it comes down to it, a nothing burger. Indictment, however, would force a perp walk (I’d pay good money to see that; maybe even buy a television) AND it would rid us of the entire drumpf family and anyone else involved in these very dangerous shenanigans.
I bet the family and ‘friends’ of drumpf rue the day he came down that escalator. I know we all do.

I have a Too-Smart-For-Its-Own-Good-Phone and I have never dialed it with my butt. It is, however, very easy to accidentally touch a wrong phone number (which the phone then quickly dials) while going through the Contacts List looking for the number you do want to dial.

I have often butt-dialed friends and friends have often butt-dialed me. It happens.
I’m more concerned about those deliberate calls to “Bahrain” for money to conduct more actions against the United States from criminals like Giuliani, Barr and Trump. We are seeing our country slowly and openly destroyed . I couldn’t agree more that we remove every official tainted by this criminal president, but effort must be paid to investigate and charge them for their acts against this nation.
We need a legacy that says “You work to hurt this nation, you are guaranteed to one day be held accountable for your crimes”.
We’re gonna need bigger prisons!

OK, so it happens. However, the REALLY stoopid part here is that he didn’t bother listening to the outgoing message from the person he ‘butt-dialed’. You can’t – far as I know – just dial and start talking without having to listen to a (sometimes too long) message that at LEAST tells you whom or what number you’ve dialed.

The important fact about Butt-Dialing is that the person who belongs to the Dialing Butt is NOT aware that the Butt has just Dialed a number, and that the corresponding VoiceMail is recording everything the person says.

You mean he was talking to someone in the room and the voicemail recorded it? Has NO ONE questioned to whom he was speaking then?

“Giuliani was going on about fraud, someone named Charles, the kingdom of Bahrain and the need for “a few hundred thousand” dollars — addressing not Schapiro but a barely intelligible man in the background of the voice mail.
“The call appeared to be one of the most unfortunate of faux pas: what is known, in casual parlance, as a butt dial,” Schapiro wrote in an NBC News account of the Oct. 16 voice message.
It wasn’t even the first. Just a few weeks earlier, Schapiro wrote, Giuliani had left him a voice mail in which he could be heard making corruption claims about former vice president Joe Biden and his son Hunter.”

The only ‘Charles’ that immediately springs to mind is Prince Charles of England. PLEASE tell me that HE isn’t involved in all this, too!
