On Monday, former Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas revealed on Twitter that according to his sources, Giuliani has recently been “drinking heavily” and “fears that he is about to get indicted and doesn’t [know] who to turn to for help.” Then on Tuesday, CNN reported that Giuliani actually met with DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith a few weeks ago. When you put these two stories together, they make for a remarkable timeline.

The only reason such a meeting would take place was if Jack Smith told the highest level criminal targets that they were welcome to come in and defend themselves ahead of indictment. Such a meeting rarely goes well for even the savviest of criminals, and defense attorneys usually advise guilty clients not to take such meetings. Yet Giuliani went ahead and took the bait.

When you combine this with Parnas’ sources, it sure sounds like Giuliani left his Jack Smith meeting under the impression that he’s about to get criminally indicted for election fraud-related crimes, and has been in a drunken stupor ever since.

So where does this go next? Jack Smith is still keeping his cards close to the vest in this probe. But if he’s at a point where he’s offering come-to-Jesus meetings with people like Rudy, the probe is basically over and indictments are coming next. Giuliani is correct to panic.
