Rudy Giuliani says he has dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden’s family that he plans to release if he anything happens to him, as federal prosecutors investigate the former mayor for possible campaign finance violations and illegal lobbying.

Donald Trump’s personal lawyer took to Twitter on Saturday to clarify his repeated remarks about having ‘an insurance policy’ should the president try to throw him ‘under the bus’ amid the Ukraine scandal.

Giuliani said the statement is ‘sarcastic’ and that it ‘relates to the files in my safe about the Biden Family’s 4 decade monetizing of his office’.

‘If I disappear, it will appear immediately along with my RICO chart,’ he added.

His reference to RICO – the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, the federal law aimed at prosecuting organized crime – could indicate that Giuliani still has information that has not been released publicly from his days as a US Attorney in the 80s.

In a second tweet, Giuliani wrote: ‘The Mafia couldn’t kill me so NO, I am not worried about the swamp press.’

The tweets came hours after Giuliani was asked about the implication that he has compromising information on Trump should their relationship ever flounder during an interview on Fox News.

While railing against ‘fake news,’ Giuliani warned Trump against abandoning him – even as the former mayor becomes more deeply embroiled in the Ukraine scandal.

‘I see things like, ‘he’s going to throw me under the bus’. I say he isn’t, but I have insurance,’ Giuliani said with a shrug.

He did not specify what the ‘insurance’ entailed, but insisted he has a ‘very, very good relationship’ with Trump anyway.

‘This is ridiculous. We are very good friends. He knows what I did was in order to defend him, not to dig up dirt on Biden,’ he said.
