How Robert Mueller cornered Rudy Giuliani

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens.

It was one of the strangest twists in what was already the strangest scandal of all time. Turkish criminal Reza Zarrab disappeared in the middle of his trial, yet neither his attorney nor the prosecution nor the judge seemed upset about it. Palmer Report was the first political site to logically deduce that Robert Mueller must have pulled him to testify against Michael Flynn. Sure enough, it was soon revealed that Zarrab and Flynn had cut plea deals. Smack in the middle of this was Rudy Giuliani.

We still don’t know precisely what Giuliani did to get himself tangled up with a crime ring in Turkey, but we do know that Giuliani was so desperate to keep it from coming out, he tried to insert himself into Zarrab’s defense. The judge wasn’t having any of it, and Rudy has been laying low ever since. Here’s thing: when you flip, you don’t just flip on one person. You have to rat out everyone involved. That means Zarrab has already long ago sold out Giuliani to Mueller.

Now Giuliani is suddenly trying to insert himself into Donald Trump’s legal team, in a move that sounds all too familiar. We don’t know if Giuliani cut a plea deal with Mueller, and he’s secretly doing this on Mueller’s behalf, or if he’s just desperately trying to bring the whole thing down before he becomes the next to be indicted. What we do know is that Mueller has Giuliani under his thumb one way or the other.

So as this latest farce plays out in which Rudy Giuliani tries to serve as the “lawyer” for his criminal co-conspirator Donald Trump, keep in mind that this is not at all what it might look like. Even as the mainstream media continues to ignore that Reza Zarrab cut a plea deal against everyone involved including Giuliani, the facts are what they are.
