Rudy Giuliani lashed out at Fox News host Steve Hilton on Monday, after the media personality called on President Donald Trump to dump his personal lawyer over the Ukraine scandal.

“It turns out that the former mayor’s own personal business interests are wrapped up in all this,” Hilton said on Sunday night. “To put it simply, he’s been trying to enrich himself on the back of his relationship with President Trump.”

“It’s time to dump these toxic chumps,” the Fox News host added.

Giuliani responded via Twitter:

I have not taken a penny for representing my friend, President Trump. I am outraged that @SteveHiltonx reported that I was trying to pursue private business deals in Ukraine to “enrich” myself, when in reality I have made ZERO in Ukraine! Very lazy reporting! — Rudy Giuliani (@RudyGiuliani) December 2, 2019

If it wasn’t for me, @SteveHiltonx wouldn’t even be covering Burisma. He sure didn’t cover it for the THREE YEARS it was in front of his face. He should apologize for his maliciousness and thank me for the story! — Rudy Giuliani (@RudyGiuliani) December 2, 2019
