Rudy Giuliani

WATCH: Michael Cohen speculates FBI may have evidence linking Rudy Giuliani and Matt Gaetz scandals

Longtime Donald Trump fixer Michael Cohen explained how the scandals dogging Rudy Giuliani and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) could be colliding during a Friday appearance on MSNBC's "Deadline: White House" with Nicolle Wallace.

"I want to ask you about the investigation that we now know more about than ever before into Rudy Giuliani," Wallace said. "He's taking a really brazen approach the day after a raid into his home and offices. You've had your home and offices raided and in your view, which with what you experienced and what you know about what Trump's willing to do to put his neck out for anyone, what should Rudy be doing?"

"Yeah, first of all, if I can, I wanted to go back and talk to you for a second about the previous block that you had on and I want to be very clear to and to your audience about this," Cohen said. "One of the things that you're talking about is Marie Yovanovitch and Ukraine. That is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what they're looking for when it comes to Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump, and so on."

Kimberly Wehle, a law professor at the University of Baltimore and former assistant U.S. attorney, offers some legal analysis of the raid in an article published by the conservative website The Bulwark on April 30.

On Thursday, faced with an explosion of coverage of the federal investigation into his business dealings in Ukraine, Rudy Giuliani took to Twitter to claim that the search warrant against him was approved by former President Donald Trump's Attorney General William Barr — during the impeachment proceedings.

"The DOJ in late 2019 covertly obtained access to my iCloud and never notified me," said Giuliani. "They invaded the attorney client relationship as we were defending against the phony impeachment. These prosecutors violated the laws, not me. If again, nothing is done, you could be next."
