    They found rudy!

    From this afternoons, WSJ:

    Subpoenas issued to people with ties to President Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, and his associates indicate a broad federal investigation into possible money laundering, obstruction of justice and campaign-finance violations, and suggest that prosecutors are looking closely at the work of Mr. Giuliani himself, according to people familiar with the matter.

    In recent weeks, prosecutors have sent subpoenas and other requests to potential witnesses seeking records and information related to Mr. Giuliani and two of his associates, according to the people. The investigation, led by the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, has already led to campaign-finance charges against the associates, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman.

    The subpoenas offer the clearest indication yet that federal prosecutors are examining Mr. Giuliani’s consulting work. Among the entities named in the subpoenas are Giuliani Partners, a security-consulting firm founded by Mr. Giuliani in 2002 that had multiple foreign clients, including a city in Ukraine. The subpoenas also sought information on a company co-founded by Mr. Parnas that paid Mr. Giuliani for business and legal advice.

    Rudy has no concerns - he has "insurance" in his safe.

    If “they” want to get you, there are plenty of statutes to use to get anyone.

    "Look if they dropped the impeachment circus today the AG in NYC is waiting to fire another volley at Trump and I am sure they have all kind of stuff laid out until the last day he walks out of the White house and then I am sure they will try to indict him and send his 75-79 year old ass to prison to die. Then, maybe, just maybe they would be happy. Then maybe not, these Trump haters are a nasty bunch......................" A quote of mine from another thread a few days ago. Seems to apply here also. They will never stop.

    Trump just threw Rudy under the bus this afternoon. Trump claims he did not direct Rudy and does not know what Rudy was doing in the Ukraine. What a piece of work!

    I was thinking of Trump, but they both fit the bill.

    Taking the heat for your clients is job #1 for lawyers, but I’m having a hard time understanding what Rudy was supposed to have done wrong.
