Rudy Giuliani butt-dials NBC reporter, heard discussing need for cash and trashing Bidens.
Late in the evening on Oct. 16, Rudy Giuliani made a phone call to this reporter. The fact that Giuliani was reaching out wasn’t remarkable. He and the reporter had spoken earlier that night for a story about his ties to a fringe Iranian opposition group, but this call, it would soon become clear, wasn’t a typical case of a source following up with a reporter.
