JENNIFER RODGERS, CNN LEGAL ANALYST: Then that could expose him to various criminal liability, including for the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bars American citizens from bribing officials overseas in business matters. So we don't know a lot yet, but they're definitely looking at him. So there's a lot going on that we need to learn about. But it is trouble for him for sure.</s>BROOKE BALDWIN, CNN HOST: I think your Marie Yovanovitch point is right on the money. We know he was part of the smear campaign against her. So as they delve into that, Michael, you have represented a client who was accused of colluding with the Russians. If you were defending Rudy Giuliani, how would do so?</s>MICHAEL ZELDIN, CNN LEGAL ANALYST: To say I did nothing illegal. That, what you see here is influence peddling. That isn't a crime. If it were, half the lobbyists in Washington, D.C., would be under investigation, which might be a good thing. But it is not yet criminal. And so to parlay one's relationship with people in office who are powerful for your personal advantage goes on all the time. So my sort of defense of Giuliani is, that is what you are seeing here, you may not like it, it is not a crime. I didn't money launder, I didn't represent the foreign government without registering as a foreign agent, if such registration was required. And you might not like me anymore, I'm no longer maybe your New York mayor in chief, but I didn't do anything criminal.</s>BALDWIN: Michael and Jennifer, thank you both.</s>ZELDIN: Thank you. Happy holiday.</s>BALDWIN: Thank you. Thank you.
