Biden says he was unaware of Giuliani raid: 'I give you my word, I was not'

President Joe Biden said on Thursday that he was not given a heads-up that the apartment and office of Rudy Giuliani were set to be raided Wednesday, an extraordinary move in the Justice Department's ongoing probe of former President Donald Trump's onetime attorney.

Asked if he was given notice ahead of the raid, Biden emphatically told NBC News, "I give you my word, I was not." He added, "I made a pledge: I would not interfere in any way, order, or try to stop any investigation the Justice Department had -- no way. I learned about that last night when the rest of the world learned about it, my word. I had no idea this was underway."
