Rudy Giuliani says Trump's campaign was given advanced notice about the FBI's Clinton email announcement
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani claimed Friday that Donald Trump's campaign was tipped off about the FBI announcement regarding Hillary Clinton's emails before it went public last week. "Did I hear about it? You're darn right I heard about it, and I can't even repeat the language that I heard from the former FBI agents," Giuliani said during an appearance on Fox & Friends. The former mayor also said he expected FBI Director James Comey to make an announcement "about three, four weeks ago, because way back in July this started, they kept getting stymied looking for subpoenas, looking for records."
Giuliani's apparent admission came after he remarked last week on Fox & Friends that the Trump campaign had "a couple of surprises left" that would be shared in "a little bit of a different way" and be "enormously effective." Two days later, news broke that Comey had sent a letter to Congress informing lawmakers that emails had been found on the laptop of Anthony Weiner, the estranged husband of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, that may be pertinent to the bureau's previous investigation of Clinton's private email server.
Giuliani noted Friday he is "real careful not to talk to any on-duty, active FBI agents," but said he has "a lot of friends who are retired FBI agents, close, personal friends." "All I heard were former FBI agents telling me that there's a revolution going on inside the FBI and it's now at a boiling point," he said.
