Just recently, it was reported by NBC that phones belonging to Michael Cohen, who is the longtime attorney of President Donald Trump, had allegedly been wiretapped by investigators.

Upon hearing this, the president’s newly hired lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, reacted by calling on United States Attorney General (AG) Jeff Sessions to investigate the individuals looking into Cohen’s supposed misconduct.

Specifically, while speaking to a reporter over the phone about the alleged wiretapping, Trump’s new lawyer stated, “I am waiting for the Attorney General to step in, in his role as defender of justice, and put [the people investigating Cohen] under investigation.”

To clarify, Giuliani, who used to be the mayor of New York City, New York several years prior to being hired by President Trump, explained that Sessions should step in because wiretapping Cohen would be “a blatant transgression of attorney-client privilege” and amount to “gross misconduct” by the government.

In another interview with Washington Post reporter Robert Costa, however, he noted that he has yet to verify that that Trump’s personal lawyer had actually been wiretapped.

“Giuliani tells me he can’t confirm there were wiretaps, hasn’t been informed. But when read NBC report, he was furious. ‘If they picked up the president, they would have had to notify him.’ Said if true, wld be a ‘mockery’ of attorney-client privilege and ‘gov’t misconduct,’” tweeted Costa shortly after speaking with the former mayor.

“Giuliani to Wash Post: If true, ‘It’s not appropriate. I mean, he’s a lawyer. You mean, I call up my lawyer and the government is wiretapping him? That’s pretty damn — I mean, they’ve already eviscerated the attorney-client privilege. This would make a mockery of it,’” wrote the reporter in a follow-up tweet.

Although Giuliani called on Sessions to launch an investigation into the matter, he also mentioned to a reporter with the Daily Beast that he suspected the report from the liberal news outlet wasn’t true.

“Us lawyers have talked about it, we don’t believe it’s true,” began Giuliani.

“We think it’s going to turn out to be untrue because it would be totally illegal. You can’t wiretap a lawyer, you certainly can’t wiretap his client who’s not involved in the investigation,” he continued.

“No one has suggested that Trump was involved in that investigation. So they’re going to wiretap the lawyer, his client, and his client the president of the United States? I don’t think so, not if they want to stay out of jail,” Giuliani added, noting, “disclosing a wiretap is a federal felony. I never took ‘em home when I was a U.S. attorney.”

In the wake of the comments by Giuliani, NBC appears to have changed their original story. “CORRECTION: Feds have pen-register, not wiretap on Michael Cohen,” clarified MSNBC in a newly published tweet.

Despite this correction, the attorney general should still launch an investigation into the people behind the probe of Cohen. Sadly, though, if this happens and misconduct is found, the discovery would not be very surprising due to the fact that the Democratic Party is full of unethical and dishonorable individuals.

For example, a couple of months ago, Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski (D) was found guilty of 47 criminal charges of “conspiracy…bribery, attempted extortion, false statements to federal officials, honest services fraud, mail fraud, and wire fraud.” He also reportedly changed city contracts “in order to raise money for his campaigns for Mayor.”

As of now, a date for sentencing has not been set. When it does eventually come, he faces 20 years in prison for each count of corruption. Until that day arrives, though, he’ll be free on bail.

And just before that, back in February, detectives with the New York Police Department arrested Juliet Germanotta, a 36-year-old transgender democrat campaigning against Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI), and charged her with “third-degree grand larceny” for stealing an “18-karat yellow gold Zambian emerald and diamond ring” worth $4,800 from Mikaelians Jewelry in New York City.

According to reports, Germanotta, who describes herself as a “proud transgender woman” and “ordained minister” had ordered the ring from the jewelry shop back in September 2017. Upon receiving it, however, she complained that it wasn’t to her liking and told them that she would be returning it.

But, rather than send them the real ring, she decided to send them a “phony” one worth about $10. The jewelry experts at the shop, though, weren’t fooled by her obvious scam and promptly reported her to the local police.

After returning the fake ring, Germanotta then sold the real one to an unsuspecting buyer, who learned that it was stolen upon having it appraised.

When law enforcement officials finally caught up with her and questioned her about the theft, she reportedly confessed to the crime and was subsequently placed in handcuffs.

Several weeks prior to Germanotta’s arrest, a democratic mayor in Florida was also busted for corruption.

Specifically, Florida Governor Rick Scott (R) signed an executive order earlier this month officially suspending Hallandale Beach Mayor Joy Cooper (D). He did so shortly after the FBI charged her with felony “campaign finance violations, official misconduct, and money laundering“ for using bribe money that she laundered to illegally fund her re-election campaign.

According to reports, the FBI investigation into Cooper first began back in May 2012 when two undercover agents acting as wealthy landowners created a fake real estate company. They then hired Alan Koslow, a South Florida attorney and lobbyist, to reach out to her and tell her that they would be willing to help fund her re-election campaign in exchange for her help getting a construction project approved by the city commission.

Cooper agreed to the deal, accepted their money, and ultimately won the election. Although this occurred in 2012, it took more than five years for Cooper to finally be arrested. This is because, shortly after the election, the agents revealed their identities to Koslow and turned him into an undercover assistant to help them investigate other politicians and lobbyists in exchange for a plea deal.

After their investigation was complete, they then sentenced Koslow to a year in prison. Once out, Koslow then agreed to give “a critical statement in the investigation into Cooper’s alleged misconduct.” Upon receiving his statement, the FBI then went out and arrested the corrupt mayor.

Hopefully, Sessions listens to Giuliani and looks into those investigating Cohen to see whether or not they’re guilty of any misconduct. If any misconduct is indeed found, then those responsible must be punished as harshly as possible to deter others from doing something similar in the future.
