The Washington Post reports on the long ties between Michael Mukasey and Rudy Giuliani.

Podell under such intense cross-examination that Podell nervously poked a lens out of his eyeglasses and then pled guilty. According to today’s Post article, it was Mukasey who helped Rudy prepare for the trial by playing Podell in a rehearsal.
