Rawstory: John Oliver: Rudy Giuliani was like 'Weekend at Bernie's' for a living person

John Oliver summed up Rudy Giuliani's defamation trial this week by showing off the desperation of his own staff to get him away from reporters.

"Outside his trial on Dec. 11, Giuliani defamed Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss again, despite already being found liable for defaming them the first time around.

'You're damn right they did,' Giuliani told a reporter who disagreed that there is no proof of the former mayor's claims.

That's when Giuliani's spokesman grabbed him, trying to usher him from the microphone. He loudly shouted that the ex-mayor is the same one who cleaned up New York City, fought the mafia and he almost mentioned the third thing but ushered him toward the car instead.

"Wow, there is so much there that is pathetic. That man is desperately trying to coast off of the guy that Giuliani was 20 years ago.

It is the rare attempt to 'Weekend-At-Bernie's' someone who is still alive!

Also, he bailed on that defense mid-sentence.

'Yeah, I was gonna get to 9/11 but this has been a disaster! Just get in the f---ing car, Rudy!"'

note the ginger mint

 

(Giuliani circulated a heavily edited clip of security footage that he told a legislative committee in Georgia showed poll workers passing "USB drives" “like vials of heroin or cocaine” during ballot-counting operations. The “USB drive” was actually a ginger mint.)

Raving Rudy - the sequel ...

 

The NY Times - Georgia Election Workers Sue Giuliani Again

 

18 Dec 2023

 


Two former Georgia election workers who successfully sued Rudolph W. Giuliani for spreading baseless lies about them after the 2020 presidential election sued him again on Monday, seeking to bar him from continuing to repeat those falsehoods. ...

 

During the week-long trial to determine the amount of compensation and in the days after, Mr. Giuliani, speaking in interviews and to reporters outside the courthouse, reasserted his debunked claims that the women sought to deprive President Donald J. Trump of victory as they counted votes in Fulton County, Ga., on Nov. 3, 2020.

 

In the new lawsuit, Ms. Freeman and Ms. Moss are asking that the court force Mr. Giuliani to stop making the baseless allegations. ...

 

 

I pity his lawyers ...  🙄

Rudy is also considered an unindicted co-conspirator in Trump’s indictment on federal charges for obstruction of the 2020 election.

He and one of his lawyers are being sued by Hunter Biden for allegedly mishandling the presidential son’s laptop, and that lawyer is accusing Giuliani of not paying legal bills.

Giuliani also faces a suit from a former employee accusing him of wage theft and sexual harassment.

White South Carolina couple ‘harassed Black neighbors with burning cross’ | South Carolina | The Guardian

 

 

On Wednesday morning, federal agents searched the house of 28-year-old Worden Butler and 27-year-old Alexis Hartnett in Horry county for a “civil rights investigation involving allegations of racial discrimination”, WBTW reports the agency saying.

 

According to Horry county police reports reviewed by WPDE, between 23 and 24 November, Butler and Hartnett, who are white, allegedly harassed and stalked their neighbors, who are Black, with “racially motivated words and actions”.

 

In one incident, Butler and Hartnett reportedly erected a cross that faced their neighbors’ privacy fence. “The cross was facing the victims’ home and the suspect set the cross on fire,” a police report said.

The walls are closing in on Rudy :

 

The Washington Post - Judge says Rudy Giuliani must pay $148 million judgment immediately

 

20 Dec 2023

 


Rudy Giuliani must immediately pay the $148 million he owes two Georgia women he falsely accused of helping steal the 2020 election, a federal judge ruled Wednesday in a scathing order accusing the former Trump attorney of ongoing dishonesty.

 

Judge Beryl A. Howell wrote that there is a strong danger Giuliani is likely to hide his assets from plaintiffs Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ArShaye “Shaye” Moss and is unlikely to succeed in having last week’s jury verdict overturned or cut down on appeal. ...

 

Giuliani has never denied that he has taken steps to hide his assets from judgment creditors, and has offered no affirmative pledge that he will take no steps to do so,” Howell wrote. ...

 

As Howell noted, it is unclear how much money Giuliani has because he ignored court orders that would have offered insight into his finances. ...

It's nice when the rich and famous ignore court orders.
