1. New @RudyGiuliani lunacy. A Hunter Biden partner - Chris Bulger - is son of William Bulger, former President of Massachusetts Senate. But Sen. William's brother is Whitey Bulger, the gangster, so now Rudy says Chris is organized crime.

Shall we examine Rudy & the mob then?..

@RudyGiuliani 2...while Chris's dad is one of the most respected legislators in Massachusetts history, serving as president of the senate longer than anyone else, yes, his uncle was a criminal. Just like Rudy's - not uncle, but dad.

Rudy's dad's, Harold Giuliani, started his life of crime...

@RudyGiuliani 3...young, and was convicted of felony assault and robbery, serving time in Sing Sing. After his release from prison, Harold worked as an enforcer for his brother-in-law Leo D'Avanzo - another Rudy relative - , who ran an organized crime operation involved in loan sharking and...

@RudyGiuliani 4...gambling. Now, you may know what an "enforcer" for an organized crime figure involved in loan sharking and gambling is - the guy who goes out and breaks people legs for not paying.

So, let's follow the bouncing ball. Hunter - who is running for NOTHING - has a business...

@RudyGiuliani 5...partner who is son of a widely respected Massachusetts politician, but the nephew of a gangster. Rudy suggests this makes him a gangster and means Hunter is associated with organized crime.

So, Rudy - whose DAD cracked people's kneecaps while working for organized crime...

@RudyGiuliani 6...as well as another relative who, if I follow the chain correctly, is Rudy's uncle - who ran the organized crime outfit. In other words, there is no distance at all between Rudy's grew up in the house of a thug, while Hunter has a partner whose respected dad had a brother...

@RudyGiuliani 7...who was a thug. And that, Rudy says, makes Hunter wrapped up in organized crime, thus something something Joe Biden.

I now understand the standard, and this is *outrageous!* Trump is consorting with the SON of a gangster, and even using him to threaten officials worldwide...

@RudyGiuliani 8...no doubt that this criminal working for Trump is breaking people's kneecaps, just like his dad did, for Boss Trump.

Trump has a lot to answer for by being affiliated with the mob.

See how that works, Rudy? You really want to go there?
