Giuliani reportedly traveled to Budapest and Ukraine to meet with Ukrainians about corruption.
Excerpt from White House transcript:
Q Did Rudy Giuliani tell you why he was going to Europe? And do you approve?
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I just know he came back from some place, and he's going to make a report, I think to the Attorney General and to Congress. He says he has a lot of good information. I have not spoken to him about that information.
But Rudy, as you know, has been one of the great crime fighters of the last 50 years. And he did get back from Europe just recently, and I know — he has not told me what he found, but I think he wants to go before Congress and say — and also to the Attorney General and the Department of Justice. I hear he's found plenty, yeah.

"The Accounts Chamber in Ukraine found an alleged misuse of $5.3B in U.S. funds during the Obama administration while Biden was "Point Man." Obama embassy urged Ukrainian police NOT to investigate! Stay tuned to find out why...Shocking disclosure: Much of the $5.3B in US Aid Ukraine reported as misused was given to the embassy's favored NGO's. At the time Yovanovitch, witness for the Witchunt, was the Amb. That embassy directed the police not to investigate. Wonder why Obama forgot Art. 2, Sec. 3."
"Presidential Legal Obligations 101: Art 2, Sec. 3 of the US Constitution obligates the President to investigate and ask for investigations of corruption in countries we provide funds to. Who ever heard of a president being impeached for carrying out his constitutional mandate?...It comes as a huge shock to Democrats that @realDonaldTrump will ask for investigations concerning violations of US laws & misused hard-earned tax payer dollars. It's called his legal obligation under Article 2, Sec. 3 of the US Constitution. Ignored by Obama."
"In reviewing my notes, it seems to me that a large scale joint investigation into Ukraine and the US would uncover and recover billions stolen by crooks, from both countries, at the highest levels. This would be the most effective way to bring our two countries together."
