President Donald Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani said Friday he planned to release tapes later in the day that show evidence that former Vice President Joe Biden allegedly bribed Ukrainian officials, doubling down on comments he made to Newsmax TV on Thursday.
"Starting next week, I will present witnesses," Giuliani told Fox News' "Fox and Friends." "I have them all on tape. We will reveal one at a time."
The former New York City mayor said he started investigating Biden two years ago when he was thinking about running for president, even though he never thought he would run.
He claimed that his evidence will show that Biden allegedly bribed then-Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko to drop a corruption investigation into Burisma Holdings, the natural gas firm that employed the vice-president's younger son Hunter.
"I didn't go look for dirt on Joe Biden," Giuliani said. "It was handed to me. It was handed to me almost a year and a half ago."
He said he was given information on Ukrainian corruption, "and they told me that there was a great deal of collusion going on in Ukraine to fix the 2016 election in favor of Hillary Clinton."
He added that the Russian connection was a "big hoax. Actually, it was the Democrats projecting what they had actually done in Ukraine ... they gave me witnesses. Two prosecutor generals, the current one and the last one. I have since interviewed 10 of them. I have eight of them on tape."
He said he'll start his podcast at noon on Friday and beginning next week, "the people will hear these witnesses, who our embassy will not give a visa to because they are still covering up the corruption the embassy was involved in."
That "corruption," he said, was that the embassy was "involved" in gathering "dirt" on Trump, his son Donald Jr., and they were "involved in turning over falsified evidence, absolutely completely falsified. Four witnesses will testify to that over the next two to three weeks."
