Trump conspirators beware: Rudy Giuliani's loss is a reminder that the courtroom is MAGA kryptonite MAGA losses pile up: As with the Fox defamation loss, Trumpists may want to rethink the "never surrender" strategy 31 August 2023 Good news, New York apartment hunters! There's at least one motivated seller who may be ready to unload a Manhattan pre-war beauty for below market value. Former New York City mob prosecutor and current recipient of 13 felony charges, Rudy Giuliani, had already put his Upper East Side home on the market for $6.5 million, because, as his lawyer explained, he's "close to broke." His legal fees have been mounting rapidly, due to his central role in Donald Trump's attempted coup after losing the 2020 election. He has already gone to Mar-a-Lago to beg Trump for money, but of course, got the blow-off from the coup leader. Trump did offer to host a $100,000-a-head legal fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago for Giuliani, but once the former reality TV host is done taking his cut for food, service, and other expenses, one can guess there won't be much left for ol' Rudy. So that apartment better be priced to sell, because another big bill is coming Giuliani's way. On Wednesday, federal judge Beryl A. Howell ruled that Giuliani is liable for defamation against two Georgia election workers, Wandrea "Shaye" Moss and Ruby Freeman. In the aftermath of Trump's election loss, Giuliani falsely accused these two election workers of stealing votes for President Joe Biden. He shared a video of Freeman giving Moss, who is her daugher, a piece of candy. But in Giuliani's telling, the women were "quite obviously surreptitiously passing around USB ports, as if they're vials of heroin or cocaine." The lie turned the lives of the two women upside down. They were relentlessly harassed. Trump himself amplified the lie. They were targed by a conspiracy to force them to "confess" to stealing votes. This federal decision is good news for these two women, who definitely deserve a break. It's very bad news, however, for the 19 people charged for a "criminal enterprise" to steal the state's 2020 presidential election, a group that includes Giuliani and Trump himself. full article: salon.com
