Former U.S. Attorney for Washington D.C. Joe diGenova is speaking out after Fox News reports claim he and his wife worked alongside President Donald Trump's lawyer to gain information on Joe Biden and his son.

DiGenova spoke with WBAL NewsRadio 1090 and FM 101.5's Bryan Nehman on Fox News reports that he and his wife Victoria Toensing, of diGenova and Toensing law firm, worked with Rudy Giuliani to dig up dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden and his son.

Nehman asked diGenova if the claims were true.

"It's absolutely false. Let me tell you exactly what happened," diGenova said.

Embarrassing. @ChrisWallace @FoxNewsSunday reporting this morning on hubby and me was categorically false. #maga2020 — Victoria Toensing (@VicToensing) September 29, 2019

He went on to say that they talked with Giuliani about possibly representing any Ukranian whistleblowers who wished to come forward to U.S. law officials to provide information about what they had heard and learned involving Biden's interactions with Ukraine and further incidents with Ukrainian officials.

diGenova stated that they did not travel to Ukraine and they have not spoken with anyone from the country in this regard.

When asked about Trump, diGenova said that the president never paid them and has not been a client of his law firm. DiGenova nearly joined the president's legal team during special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, but conflicts of interest prevented him and Toensing from doing so.

This interview comes after Fox News and Chris Wallace reported Sunday that an anonymous U.S. official said that the three lawyers were working "off the books" to dig up dirt on Joe Biden and his son.

Giuliani has also denied the claims.
