[link removed] [[link removed]] Giuliani accused of offering to sell Trump pardons for $2 million each in new lawsuit
John,
Rudy Giuliani has spent the last few years facing multiple investigations and lawsuits, but these new allegations potentially represent a new level of corruption.
Former Giuliani associate Noelle Dunphy filed a $10 million suit that claims Giuliani engaged in “unlawful abuses of power, wide-ranging sexual assault and harassment, wage theft, and other misconduct.”
And allegedly, Giuliani at one point asked Dunphy “if she knew anyone in need of a pardon, telling her that he was selling pardons for $2 million , which he and President Trump would split.”
John, it probably goes without saying: Selling pardons is NOT legal. Any person doing that would be guilty of bribery, which is a federal crime.
If these allegations are proven to be true, Rudy Giuliani must be held accountable.

Dunphy’s allegations state that Giuliani told her to refer people seeking pardons to him, and to have them avoid going through 'the normal channels' of the Office of the Pardon Attorney, because correspondence going to that office would be subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.
John, the New York Times reported that only 25 of the 240 pardons and commutations Trump granted during his term came through the regular Justice Department process. The others were routed through a private process developed by the Trump White House.
That raises the question – did any of the recipients of the high-profile pardons pay the $2 million alleged in the lawsuit? The American public deserves to know.
