Judge Brutally Roasts Rudy Giuliani for Not Being Able to Shut up

I read just a few minutes ago that the GA election workers and a moving company are about to gain access to his NYC condo for purposes of estimating how much it will cost to move the forfeited items to where thos women want them to go. I wonder if Rudy ever wonders if he made the wrong choice jumping on that trump train. I sure bet his son wishes he hadn't done so. Hilarious. But I guess the son can take comfort that he'll never have to pay any sort of estate tax when Rudy dies. You know, the 5 million dollar estate tax Republicans call the "death tax" in order to fool and get ignorant people to vote for millionaire's tax breaks. In any case, Andrew won't be bothered with it.

The cowardly sleazeball is hiding assets:

Rudy Giuliani’s apartment was emptied weeks ago, victims in defamation case say

Oh well, the condo itself is worth millions. Then, there's:

... The women are also still in court trying to convince the judge they should be able to take control of a $3.5 million Palm Beach condo where Giuliani says he now lives and four Yankees World Series Championship rings from the 1990s and 2000 championships, which Giuliani’s son says he received as a gift from his father.

Giuliani’s lawyers say the property that was in the Manhattan apartment is now in a storage facility on Long Island, but Freeman and Moss’ team say they are struggling to get access to the items there too.

He's gonna get himself locked up for contempt.

Guessing his lawyers aren't willing to do time for Rudy. Then again, they did take Rudy as a client and probably won't get paid so how smart are they?

If Rudy moves shit without their knowledge it ain't their fault unless they advised him to do so.

Hard to tell from the article, but it sounds like they may have been aware of the move. It's not like Rudy calls up movers on his own.

RUDE!:

Rudy Giuliani rolls up to Florida polling place in Mercedes he must surrender to defamed election workers

... In a statement shared with The Independent, Giuliani’s spokesperson Ted Goodman claimed that the former mayor had requested documents from the women’s lawyers to transfer the title and “haven’t heard back.”

“This is yet another attempt to render Mayor Rudy Giuliani — a man who has improved the lives of more people than almost any other living American — penniless and homeless,” he said....

So? He chose to attack low-wage Black women and got busted. Suck it up.

I wonder if he still has his Fraud Guarantee company? Even the name of the thing is like a flaming ball of magnesium tossed into a bucket of water.....rapid unstoppable destruction. Hilarious. Instead of him whining "I can't pay my bills!" he should instead say "I can't put this goddamn fire out!"

Rudy was convicted in federal court, but not criminally.

Can DonOld pardon him?

Rudy was convicted in federal court, but not criminally.

Can DonOld pardon him?

Is there a difference between "convicted" and civil judgement?

Wiki:

Federal pardons issued by the president apply only to federal offenses; they do not apply to state or local offenses or private civil offenses....

It doesn't elaborate further. It's source is DoJ FAQ:
https://www.justice.gov/pardon/frequent ... -questions
None of the questions are directly relevant, so I could not find the specific citation for Wiki's statement re "civil offenses".

FindLaw AI Virtual Agent's answer is:

The information I was able to find suggests that the president's pardon power is typically associated with criminal cases rather than civil cases. The U.S. Constitution grants the president the authority to issue pardons for federal offenses, which generally pertain to criminal matters[1][2][3].

For instance, President Biden recently pardoned individuals convicted of marijuana possession under federal law, which is a criminal offense[3]. Similarly, former President Trump issued pardons to several individuals convicted of various federal crimes[2]. The Supreme Court has also recognized the broad criminal immunity and pardon powers of the president[4].

Therefore, it appears that the president's pardon power does not extend to civil cases, as it is primarily focused on criminal justice matters.

"suggests ... typically ... generally ... appears ... primarily" are CYA words. Perhaps it's never been tried by a POTUS. If there's any doubt at all we can bet that TRE45QN will test it, though not necessarily on behalf of RudyRudyRudy.

Rudy Giuliani Held In Contempt by Judge In New York
The former New York City mayor could be held in contempt again later this week when he appears in a different courtroom in Washington, D.C.

Rudy Giuliani was held in contempt of court on Friday for failing to turn over personal items to two former Georgia election workers he defamed while spreading President-elect Donald Trump’s false claims about a stolen election in 2020.

The ruling comes before a trial in New York, set to begin Jan. 16, in which the judge will determine what is to become of Giuliani’s Palm Beach, Florida, condo; two World Series rings; and other items he argues are personal gifts that should not be surrendered to the workers, Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, as part of the $148 million he owes them.

The decision was handed down by U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman and comes after the former New York City mayor repeatedly flouted directions from the court to surrender records and personal items to Freeman and Moss.

“The court takes judicial notice that the defendant was until recently a barred attorney, and has committed discovery violations in the past. He has lost on both procedural and substantive questions. It was not even close. He violated the court’s order,” Liman said Monday, according to Inner City Press....

According to NBC, the former Trump attorney said he tried to comply with orders but struggled to do so because of a rigorous and demanding legal schedule. In addition to the defamation case, Giuliani has been criminally charged in Arizona and Georgia for his role in Trump’s alleged fake elector scam.

“Some days it is completely impossible because there are conflicting demands for material and appearances on the same day,” Giuliani said Friday.

... Contempt penalties can lead to jail time and fines, but with Giuliani already unwillingly on the hook for $148 million, more financial penalties are unlikely to mean much, attorneys for Freeman and Moss argued.

LOCK HIM UP!

... On Jan. 10, Giuliani is due in court in Washington, D.C., for another contempt hearing.

There he is expected to appear before U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell who will hear arguments over whether the former mayor should be slapped with sanctions because he has continued to defame Freeman and Moss with commentary on his podcast.

Also LOCK HIM UP!

Rudy Giuliani Found In Contempt Of Court For Second Time This Week

... It’s “outrageous and shameful that Mr. Giuliani suggests that he is the one being treated unfairly,” Howell said in court, according to reporters in the room. “This takes real chutzpah, Mr. Giuliani.”

Howell also ordered the former New York City mayor to sign a sworn declaration stating he’d seen all the trial evidence. She threatened potential jail time if he fails to sign it within the next 10 days....

Rudy Giuliani Says He's Too Sick For Court Hearing — But Fine For Trump's Inauguration
The former New York City mayor was faced with an ultimatum that he, apparently, couldn't abide.

What a difference a day makes.

On Wednesday, Rudy Giuliani told a federal judge in Washington, D.C. that it could be dangerous for him to attend an upcoming contempt hearing tied to his defamation case with election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss due to ongoing issues with his knee, heart and lungs, as well as what he said were death threats linked to his criticisms of Iran.

In response, U.S. District [Judge] Beryl Howell gave Giuliani permission to attend the hearing remotely on one condition: He must declare, under penalty of perjury, that he cannot travel anywhere because of those reasons and therefore would not travel for the next month — including over Trump’s inauguration.

She gave Giuliani until 2 p.m. Thursday to respond.

And respond he did.

In a declaration filed Thursday, Giuliani said it wasn’t that he said he couldn’t travel, it was just that he probably shouldn’t. His death threats were credible, he said, and he is definitely suffering various ailments that require him to take medication.

But, he lamented: “It currently appears that I will be required to appear in person for trial in the New York ... starting on January 16, 2025. If it concludes before January 20th, I may travel to Washington, D.C. on the way home from Florida for the inauguration of President Trump, which will be a once-in-a-lifetime event in which I cannot participate by zoom, and for which there will be heightened security.”

“I did not represent that I do not or cannot travel, but that travel carries medical and security risks ... and that there was therefore a compelling basis for my remote appearance. I had hoped the Court would understand and accommodate my needs. However, it appears I was mistaken. Because it is difficult to cancel my two evening broadcasting commitments, and last-minute travel arrangements are uncertain, I have decided to withdraw my motion to appear virtually and to be physically present for tomorrow’s hearing,” the declaration states....

Bazinga! Do not play poker with Judge Beryl Howell, ever.

Rudy Giuliani asked courtroom sketch artist Jane Rosenberg whether she would make him look "nice." He thought she scrunched his face into a scowl in a previous courtroom sketch.
"You made me look like my dog," Giuliani said, according to Rosenberg.
