Members of President Donald Trumps team believe his legal problems may not end with the Mueller probe, Axios reports.
While Trump has steadfastly maintained that Russia collusion was the only topic to be investigated by the special prosecutor, the Trump Organizations chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg made an immunity deal with federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York and no one knows what information he gave up.
While Trumps attorney Rudy Giuliani told Axios he was not worried, he also said he had not talked to the former CFO.
I guess I dont know for sure, Giuliani said. Somebody couldve misled me, something new couldve come up. Maybe say reasonably confident. That would be a better way of phrasing it.
Axios reports that people have told us theyre far more worried about the Cohen investigation in New York than they are about whatever Mueller comes up with.

just makes him a traitor and a criminal. The Southern District will cost him money.

Mueller's, US attorney in NY for financial crimes and New York State AG for charity-related.
