Rudy Giuliani has been at the heart of Marie Yovanovitch’s testimony as it paints a damning portrait of the president’s lawyer.
Yovanovitch said that she never met, and didn’t know Hunter Biden, and didn’t understand why Giuliani was smearing her:

Later in her opening statement, Yovanovitch laid out how Rudy Giuliani, who was working with corrupt forces in Ukraine, allowed private and foreign interests to hijack US policy in Ukraine. She also showed how Trump was manipulated by Giuliani and corrupt forces into removing her:

Yovanovitch’s testimony is still in its early stages, but she has been damaging to Trump and Rudy Giuliani. Trump looks like an easily manipulated fool who buys into conspiracy theories, and Giuliani appears to be a man who engaged in potentially criminal activity, and a shadow foreign policy under Trump’s direction in a bid to push Ukraine into investigating Joe Biden.
Trump is going to get impeached, but it is looking more like that Rudy Giuliani could end up in jail.
