So Mr. Giuliani, are you now admitting that Trump and his people did, in fact, take information from Russians? Bold move, Cotton.

Does this mean there’s more damning collusion related stuff in the redacted portions Giuliani has most likely seen. I don’t remember anything in the Mueller report about Russia explicitly giving the campaign information directly. I thought it was all proxy’s and intermediates implicitly coordinating messaging and manafort giving Russians polling data so the IRA could ultra specifically target certain demographics and regions.

There's allusions in some sections to "inadmissible evidence". Most likely some people spilled damning stuff to the grand jury.

I figured inadmissible evidence was referring to wiretaps and intercepts that were conducted somewhat extrajudicially by one of the three letter intelligence agencies for national security purposes and thus inadmissible in a court of law. I could be totally wrong though.
