Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump's former attorney and past New York mayor, could be signaling his intent to work with the prosecution in its fake electors case against Trump, a former prosecutor said on Friday.
Tali Farhadian Weinstein, a former federal and New York state prosecutor, was asked during an appearance on MSNBC what Giuliani's voluntary cooperation signaled to her. Mostly, she said, "It tells us that Jack Smith is really busy."
"At the same time that he is going full speed ahead in the documents case, he is also working on the January 6th case and Giuliani's appearance in the proffer is interesting," Farhadian Weinstein said. "We don't know what it means. We could make some educated guesses."
Farhadian Weinstein pushed the audience to consider the fact that Giuliani was a U.S. Attorney in the southern district of New York.
"He knows better than anybody what to do, how to help himself. One possibility is that he is working his way towards cooperation agreement. When you decide to make an agreement as the government, with somebody, where they plead guilty to whatever crimes they've committed in exchange for leniency, you have to have a series of properties along the way in which that person tells you everything they've ever done that was wrong and you decide if you believe them, if you want to work with them. That is one possibility for what is going on here."
