Giuliani found in contempt of court for continued defamation of Georgia women

This makes me smile



https://www.msnbc.com/top-stories/latest/rudy-giuliani-contempt-court-defame-ruby-freeman-shaye-moss-rcna187043
A federal judge on Friday found Rudy Giuliani in contempt of court for his continued defamation of two former Georgia election workers, just days after a different federal judge held him in contempt for failing to turn over his assets to them as ordered.

In a courtroom in Washington, D.C., U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell excoriated Giuliani for continuing to defame Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, saying he violated a permanent injunction that he agreed to in May “in at least six ways.”

In November, attorneys for Freeman and Moss asked Howell to find Giuliani in contempt for allegedly violating the injunction to stop claiming that the women engaged in fraud during the 2020 election or repeating any of the statements about them for which he was found liable for defamation. Their attorney said in a motion that the former New York City mayor has continued to accuse the women of wrongdoing on his online show, “America’s Mayor Live,” citing examples in two of his episodes.....

Giuliani has faced nonstop legal troubles due to his allegations against Freeman and Moss. He is set to make another court appearance on Jan. 16, when he goes to trial over the handover of some of his assets, including his World Series rings and his Palm Beach condominium, to the Georgia women.

Sounds like Rudy is going to be lectured about his bad behavior. I bet he’s about as scared as a Juvenile delinquent getting yelled at by his mom for beating up someone. BFD.

has anyone noticed that TSF hasn't said one thing or went to bat for Ghouliani. Thrown. Under. The. Bus. He's a forgotten entity. Another useful idiot until he's no longer useful. Rudy Ghouliani... nice knowing ya, asshole! And good riddance!

Oh, by the way Rudy, on your way out, familiarize yourself with the letters G, F and Y.

Ghouliani won't have to worry about GFY since he will soon not have access to little blue pills and I don't think he is really a desirable target.

take all his assets and money. Then put his ass in jail for not paying them off in full.

You would think he'd learn after this to not lie so badly. And again, another one of Trumps buddies that should and may go to jail for supporting Trumps lies.

Trump goes unscathed again while everyone else pays the(his) price. It's actually unbelievable.
