As of Saturday, Sen. Chris Murphy said his letter to Republican leadership about Giuliani still stands.
Amid criticism, Rudy Giuliani announced Friday night he would no longer be traveling to Ukraine in an effort to push the country to pursue an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden's involvement in the 2016 ouster of a controversial prosecutor.
Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, went so far as to pen a letter to Republican leadership expressing concern that Giuliani was making the travel plans without government oversight. Despite the blowback, Giuliani said the change was made because he didn't want to be surrounded by unnamed Ukrainians who may be"enemies of the president.""I'm not gonna go," he explained."I think I'm walking into a group of people that are enemies of the president, in some cases enemies of the United States, and in one case an already convicted person who has been found to be involved in assisting the Democrats with the 2016 election.
At the time of Biden's call, his son Hunter Biden was on the board of an energy company targeted by the prosecutor, which Giuliani charged as a conflict of interest.
