The show, preet bharara. this sdny office is formidable because it s tasked with a larger assignment than idaho. it handles all federal crime in new york, from mobsters to wall street to terrorism. that s another reason why this week s fall is intense for giuliani. this is a former prosecutor who had a big portfolio, who seemed proud of it and road his whole career on it. he used rico against the mob. today he stands book on rico charges. this is the same leader who really built his entire portfolio by touting and i want you to listen closely to what we pulled for you tonight by touting high standards, tough law and order, and quote, tackling corruption in government. that was exactly the purpose
And i have been thinking about it. here we are in the summer and there s a lot of rico bookings this week. i know you got to go and i m going to see you in roughly an hour, but i wanted to share that with you and give you thoughts for what might be the biggest booking yet. i invoked you in the first hour of my show, or second hour, when he told me donald trump switched lawyers in georgia from cardi b. s lawyer to usher s lawyer, and i said, where is ari melber when you need him? i m sure there s some journey analysis when you go from the lawyer who helped cardi b. to the lawyer that helped usher. you re so right. georgia and atlanta have a rich history, some go through the booking process and get acquitted. others don t. the new lawyer represented gunna who got out of a rico case that s still pending by the same d.a. and rick ross, who has skirted the law i think that s fair to say.
