Giuliani says he’ll say no to pardons in Russia investigation
Politico: As long as Rudy Giuliani is serving as President Donald Trump’s lawyer, he’ll advise the president to say no to pardons in the Russia investigation, Giuliani told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday morning.
“The president has issued no pardons in this investigation,” Giuliani said on “State of the Union.” “The president is not going to issue pardons in this investigation.
“And my advice to him, as long as I’m his lawyer, is not to do it,” he added. “Because you just cloud what is becoming now a very clear picture of an extremely unfair investigation with no criminality involved of any kind. I want that to come out loud and clear and not get clouded by anybody being fired or anybody being pardoned.”
But that doesn’t mean that pardons couldn’t still be an option down the road, Giuliani added — but Giuliani himself will be staying out of it.
