Giuliani says he is joining Trump’s legal team to ‘negotiate an end’ to Mueller probe
WaPo ^ | April 19, 2018 | Robert Costa and Josh Dawsey

Former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, a combative former prosecutor and longtime ally of President Trump, told The Washington Post on Thursday that he has joined the president’s legal team dealing with the ongoing special counsel probe.

“I’m doing it because I hope we can negotiate an end to this for the good of the country and because I have high regard for the president and for Bob Mueller,” Giuliani said in an interview.

Giuliani, who joins a legal team that has struggled to recruit new members to its ranks, said he has been speaking with Trump for weeks about joining the group of legal advisers. He said he would work alongside Trump’s current attorneys, Jay Sekulow and Ty Cobb, who focus on the federal investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. He also said he will soon take a leave from his law firm, Greenberg Traurig.

Wondering if Giuliani should focus on the NYC Southern District instead.

Actually there is no negotiating with any leftist. Rumors are the only reason that the Norks are caving is because Trump destroyed their ability to create nukes some time ago and with no money they have to give up.
Its the same thing with the dem party, media,or any of the deep staters, unless their backs are at the wall with a gun to their forehead they never compromise or give up.
We should learn that as well.Zero/val jar adm. was a perfect example.Never ever compromised with our side.

Let’s hope Trump has Mueller team in as bad a position for the negotiations.

If he does, it makes me curious how he is going to get the Iranians in a similar spot—maybe sic the Israelis on them?

Rudy is an expert at using RICO to procecute racketeering crimimal syndicates like the liberal fascist , weapomnized syndicates at DOG, FBI, CIA, IRS, EPA and Education.

I hope Rudy immediately moves to have a grand jury convened via patriot attorneys at DOJ. To do that Rosenstein and Sessions have to go ASAP. Rosenstein’s planned weaponized lefty replacement also has to go.

May God speed Rudy’s course.

Rudy’s like Trump in that they both know how to deal with mob tactics and how they operate. I expect we’ll see results once all is said and done.

Rudy won’t show his hand....he’ll even let some go along without ever knowing they’re one of his targets....until he hits.

[Rudolph William Louis “Rudy” Giuliani(born May 28, 1944) is an American lawyer, businessman and politician from the state of New York who was Mayor of New York City from 1994 to 2001. In the Mafia Commission Trial (February 25, 1985–November 19, 1986), Giuliani indicted eleven organized crime figures, including the heads of New York’s Five Families, under the RICO Act on charges including extortion, racketeering, labor racketeering, murder, and murder for hire. Time magazine called this “Case of Cases” possibly “the first ever significant assault on the infrastructure of organized crime.”, and quoted Giuliani’s stated intention: “Our approach...is to wipe out the bosses of the five families Eight defendants were found guilty on all counts and subsequently sentenced on January 13, 1987 to hundreds of years of prison time. The Commission allegedly ordered a large hit-squad to murder Giuliani before the “Commission trial” started, However, the boss of the Gambino crime family Paul Castellano, and at the time was also the boss of the Commission ordered the contract to be dropped, because Castellano felt it would bring to much heat on the entire La Cosa Nostra empire, if they killed a U.S. Attorney, However, John Gotti and Carmine Persico thought it would be best for La Cosa Nostra to have him killed. ]

Thanks...Like you am familiar with Rudy’s work. I tend to think those in office who weren’t already shaking their shoes are doing so now!

All Rudy needs to do is have a US attorney willing to convene a grand jury and the heads will begin to roll.

P.S. .............

Mueller is a yokel, a mere piker compared to Rudy.

I suspect this will come in time.....they’re not just going after the low hanging fruit....they’re going to take the top dogs down and the rest will tumble with them. That takes time. and good positioning and work..
