A Journey Of L's: Feds Search Rudy Giuliani's Home In Latest Controversy

The chickens might be coming home to roost for embattled Trump crony Rudy Giuliani sooner than expected. Over the last six months alone the proof remains in the pudding. On Wednesday federal investigators executed search warrants at the New York City home and office of Trump’s personal lawyer in connection to an ongoing probe into Giuliani’s involvement in Ukraine. The search reportedly took place around 6 a.m. where federal agents seized his electronic devices. While Giuliani has not released a statement (history tells us he will do so) his lawyer Robert J. Costello told The New York Times he felt the search went far beyond because his client had agreed to speak with prosecutors regarding the probe. His only restriction were questions regarding his client privileged conversations with Trump.

The feds are also looking into whether Giuliani attempted to undermine the former ambassador to Ukraine, Marie L. Yovanovitch. Prosecutors eventually charged his Ukrainian associates, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, in 2019 and a trial is scheduled to begin in October. With new administration officials seated at the Department of Justice, his placement of protection ceased to exist. Yet and still Wednesday’s search adds to a tallying roll of Giuliani’s public fall from grace, much of which was apparent to Black communities who were privy to his inner workings after five decades of languishing in the political spotlight. At the height of his praise, he was heralded for helping to take down New York City’s mafia bosses in the 80’s and then successfully won his bid for mayor in the 1990’s. After the September 11 attacks Giuliani was considered “America’s Mayor,” only to morph into an obstructer of democracy as one of the main lie spreaders around Trump’s loss in the 2020 presidential election. From spreading racist conspiracy theories to upholding harmful policies like stop-and-frisk in New York City, Giuliani will belong to a different hall of history unless revisionist histories save him from his imminent downfall.
