US revokes visa of Ukrainian Giuliani ally
Another one of Rudy's pro-Russian buddies officially unwelcome.

A US official said there are also conversations within the US government about potentially sanctioning that individual -- Andrii Telizhenko -- and identifying him as a Russian agent. Democrats have accused Telizhenko of intentionally spreading Russian disinformation.
In mid-September, the US Treasury Department sanctioned another ally of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani -- controversial Ukrainian lawmaker Andrii Derkach -- and accused him of being an "active Russian agent" who is part of Moscow's interference in the 2020 campaign.
A source familiar told CNN that Ukrainians became aware of the visa revocation when Telizhenko attempted to board a flight from Kiev to New York and was unable to do so. It is unclear why he was planning to visit New York, the source said, but they believed it was tied to the US presidential election being just around the corner.

Politically a Democrat and then Independent in the 1970s, Giuliani has been a Republican since the 1980s.[1] He served as United States Associate Attorney General from 1981 to 1983 and United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1983 to 1989.

Now he consorts with klepto-apparatchiks who want to knock the snot out of the pitiful remnants of our formerly, reasonably stable governing structure and its alliances.
