Rudy Giuliani's Financial Troubles Exposed in Ukraine Investigation

Court records reveal that federal prosecutors investigated whether Rudolph Giuliani pursued questionable business dealings in Ukraine to address his financial troubles. The investigation focused on whether Giuliani illegally lobbied the Trump administration on behalf of Ukrainian officials in 2019, who in turn helped him gather information on Joe Biden. Although the investigation did not result in charges, the records explicitly link Giuliani's financial problems to his dealings in Ukraine. Giuliani's financial woes include owing millions of dollars to his own lawyers and being ordered to pay $148 million to two Georgia election workers he defamed. The investigation culminated in the seizure of Giuliani's electronic devices, but prosecutors failed to find sufficient evidence to indict him.
