Rudy Giuliani is reportedly under federal investigation for possible campaign finance and lobbying violations.
According to Bloomberg, the US Attorneys office in Manhattan is now investigating Giuliani who once led that office for possibly violating laws against bribing foreign officials and failing to register as a foreign agent or lobbyist. Another source told Bloomberg that Giulianis shadow foreign policy with respect to Ukraine and Russia also raised serious counterintelligence concerns, but that President Donald Trumps personal attorney was unlikely to face charges for that.
I would not be surprised if he gets indicted, Mimi Rocah, a MSNBC legal analyst and former federal prosecutor, told Bloomberg. Its clear Giuliani is up to his ears in shady stuff and theres tons of smoke.

OP
Is this possibly the subject of Trump's Barr/Oval Office temper tantrum today?

Or if not the subject exactly then at least the cause?

TrumPutin may have been chewing Barr out for letting this become public. Barr's Dirt Services (formerly, DoJ) is supposed to dig up dirt on Trump's enemies (or make it up) or bury dirt on Trump's toadies.

if it comes under the realm of the DOJ, won't Barr step in and shut it all down anyhow?
