1. Seth Abramson has written extensively about this. But, it was a group of RW FBI agents

with whom Giuliani had remaining contact--largely retired but those who remained in contact with active agents.

By contrast, recent prosecutors with SDNY that have appeared on various MSNBC shows have made pretty clear that Giuliani's time in that office was so long ago that he has few connections there.. The unsaid sense was that he is NOT respected there as he ONCE was..

So I don't get the sense at all that Giuliani has any influence on SDNY investigation beyond that normally afforded to a defense attorney and as an extension to Mueller's investigation.

But, yes, I'm sure Trump is more concerned about that investigation and apparently with good cause... Even more so because the NY State Attorney General may well be investigating (and sharing info) that could lead to state charges as well.
