Giuliani wasn't the only trump attorney served search warrants this morning. From the NY Times....

....article about Giuliani:

F.B.I. agents on Wednesday morning also executed a search warrant at the Washington-area home of Victoria Toensing, a lawyer close to Mr. Giuliani who had dealings with Ukrainians involved in the effort to find damaging information about the Bidens, according to people with knowledge of that search. Ms. Toensing has represented Dmitry Firtash, a Ukrainian oligarch under indictment in the United States whose help Mr. Giuliani sought.

The old Nixonian shredding parties are a thing of the past.

I suspect Rudy will act tough in public, then sing like a canary.

... data. Often it is necessary to configure your system to "OPT-OUT" otherwise; the default is to back up everything!

Also, many of the cellphone providers backup contacts, pictures, installed apps, and other data to make cellphone upgrades almost seamless.

10 years ago, I upgraded my wife's cellphone, and my cellphone it was a multiple-day task. This time it took less than an hour to do both. Swap the SIMS card connect to WiFi and sit back while it connects to the cell provider and streams everything down to the new phone. One test call to the provider, and the phone is usable at that point. Individual applications and page location preferences can be set up at leisure.

Rudy bragged about being safe to deal with Donny because he knew where all the Trump skeletons were and had records in case he needed them.

This could get more interesting.

But I would think that if he did have records, he would store them someplace besides his laptop.

....every time an allegation came up, he couldn't wait to get in front of a camera, acknowledge the story was true, and then expand on it.

He is too....stupid? Arrogant? Deep into dementia? Too much of some, all, or other deficiencies to get away with much.

So I could picture the baptism scene... especially since these corrupt traitors are very mafia like. Russian mafia I suppose, but mafia nonetheless.

At what point does Rudy become a liability to the Russians and gets served a dose of Novichok. But I suppose the Russians probably already knew he was a liability.
