WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, spoke often to U.S. Representative Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, as Giuliani peddled unproven allegations at the heart of the Trump impeachment inquiry, a congressional report said Tuesday.
The report, which will form the basis of any impeachment charges, accused Trump of using his power to push Ukraine to investigate the conspiracy theories in return for a White House meeting for its newly elected president and nearly $400 million in security aid. In an Oct. 5 interview with Reuters, however, Giuliani said he had been in contact with Nunes about Ukraine, but “not a lot” and that the lawmaker and his staff obtained information on their own.
In the hearings, Nunes cited the same unproven allegations supported by Giuliani that Biden tried to curb an investigation into a Ukrainian energy firm on whose board his son was a member. He and other Republicans on the intelligence committee also referred to a debunked theory that it was Ukraine – not Russia – that interfered in the 2016 U.S. president election.
