Rudy Giuliani, as part his public offensive on behalf of Donald Trump, apparently thought it a good idea to publicly share the personal cell phone number of a Ukrainian official involved in the controversy.
Giuliani, on Thursday, posted several of his text message conversations with Kurt Volker, the U.S. Special Envoy for Ukraine who recently resigned amid the firestorm surrounding Giuliani and Trump’s efforts to press Ukraine into investigating Joe Biden.
Crooked Dems not letting Republicans subpoena witnesses and maybe even question witness. This is a Star Chamber, illicit and part of their conspiracy to violate constitutional rights condoned by their media lamb dogs. Kurt did nothing wrong. pic.twitter.com/iaplXBnJ1x

Volker reached out to me to ask if I would take a call from Mr. Yermak. pic.twitter.com/xZoKnba3zG

Giuliani’s texts show that his conversations with Volker eventually included Andriy Yermak, one of the top aides to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. However, when Giuliani posted his screengrab, he also included Yermak’s phone number for everyone to see.
Here’s Giuliani’s tweet, minus the phone number, which we have removed.
Giuliani’s doxxing of Yermak has not gone unnoticed on social media:
One sec, I’m texting this dude rn to confirm…

1. I'm sure "Adryi" loves having his personal phone number tweeted out. 2. Someone needs to do a welfare check at the Grand Havana Room ASAP. https://t.co/DRHFJxf4zQ
