Rudy Giuliani's lawyer revealed that Giuliani is now a target in a criminal investigation in Fulton County, Georgia, which is examining attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

.

Giuliani is scheduled to appear before the special grand jury in the investigation on Wednesday, though it is unlikely that he will divulge information about the Trump campaign’s attempts to overturn the election. Giuliani’s lawyer, Robert Costello,that his client will invoke attorney-client privilege for many of the questions he will be asked.

“If these people think he’s going to talk about conversations between him and President Trump, they’re delusional,” Costello said. The revelation that Giuliani is a target of the Georgia investigation comes the same week that a federal judge rejected arguments from another Trump ally, Sen. Lindsey Graham , against having to appear before the special grand jury.

Graham had tried to argue that his comments after the election to Brad Raffensperger, Georgia’s Secretary of State , were protected by speech rights and his position as a federal lawmaker. Graham had asked Raffensperger to reexamine Georgia’s absentee ballots in order to “explore the possibility of a more favorable outcome for former president Donald Trump.”
