Washington - Two men associated with U.S. President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani have been arrested over violations of campaign finance laws, a spokesman for the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s office said on Thursday.
The two Florida businessmen, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, are expected to appear in a federal court in Virginia later on Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
Giuliani and John Dowd, the lawyer for the two men, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It's an all out war at this point. The Manhattan US Attorney's office is up to it's neck in the resistance. The same players who helped Blasley Ford attempt to smear Kavanaugh. Wow.

Fire the US attorney in NY. They serve at the pleasure of the President. When Horndog Bubba started soiling the Oval Office he fired all US attorneys so they could, in the words of Felonia Milhous Von Pantsuit, get their own people in those spots. Nobody had a problem with that but when George W fired one attorney the Lamestream media went apoplectic. Double standard much?

The money in question is sitting in a separate account and was never spent by the campaign.
This is all in attempt to question those who are looking into the Ukraine corruption, and their previous administration's attempt to influence the 2016 election FOR Clinton.

Drudge had the headline up in red for about 10 min and then took it down.

Giuliani is past his prime in the media. I've watched him the last few days as he made the media rounds. You can see that the FOX hosts are somewhat uncomfortable with his off-point and often rambling responses. They try to assist by changing subjects or switching to another guest.
He should zip up and say as little as possible publicly. He is not doing himself or Trump any favors lately.

Number 8, I think Rudy is so overwhelmed by the degree of corruption and the complexity of the tangled web that he is beside himself and unable to even put it together during an appearance. But I agree, he really needs to prepare a succinct, understandable statement for these appearances.

Has Al Sharptongue ever been arrested by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney over his SERIAL campaign finance and tax violations?

Seems the Dems are deepening the gutter and going to any length to destroy Rudy.

Last night, Giuliani said they were coming after him, and he has receipts that he will distribute with every move they make. He said they are digging into his divorce, his law firm, etc., but he's ready for them. Yes, he's a little off, but that doesn't mean he can't get the job done still. Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!

Where's the overkill with the SWAT team and CNN ride along - for a possible illegal campaign finance donation?

I notice the Democrats get their targets arrested, put in solitary confinement, blackmailed into saying whatever the prosecutors want about anybody. But the Republicans never do anything, unable to even get an investigation started.

Misleading article, as it has been reported that both of the indicted men are naturalized US citizens of Ukrainian origin. As US citizens they are entitled to donate to US political campaigns, but must do that in accordance with the federal campaign finance laws.

I don't believe we have ever heard of a demoncrat being arrested for campaign finance violations. If U.S. Attorneys are going to start enforcing such laws, the clintons were taking suitcases of cash from the chinese. The leftist media gives away many millions in free air time to demoncrat candidates. Many such examples exist. Apparently, Justice is no longer blind. She just can't see out of her left eye.

This has got to be the lamest "guilt by association" attempt I've ever seen. Next they will be reporting the traffic tickets that were given to cab drivers Rudy Giuliani used while investigating Ukraine corruption for his client, the President.

I hope all the conservative side lawyers are taking notes on how it's done. Meanwhile the Barr team is "vacationing" in Italy. There is a slim chance that Barr will have his "evidence" before all republicans are silenced or in jail.

"Linked".... as in he once met them, or what?
I don't consider the SDNY do be a reliable source. They lie.
