(129,063 posts)Sekulow was flapping around insisting that he had nothing to do with Ghouliani who was serving "his client" (and I yelled at the TV that Ghouliani's "client" was Sekulow's "client" too)!!!
I.e., Sekulow claims that he only focussed on the Mueller investigation and the Russian collusion thing and had no idea what Ghouliani was doing.

(trying to see if it is on youtube yet)
ETA on the above link, the mumbling and fumbling begins ~7:00 when Ari asks him about Ghouliani and where Sekulow claims the Ukraine thing "was out of my jurisdiction" and insisted that Ghouliani "knows more about Ukraine than anyone on the committees".

(129,063 posts)that near the end of the interview, after bullshitting the first part, Sekulow eventually got flustered and started throwing Ghouliani under the bus while he attempted to differentiate his own role from Ghouliani's.
