Today, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman put Rudy Giuliani in his place.
Disbarred, disruptive, and disgraced, Giuliani sat in a Manhattan courtroom and ranted about his impoverished existence now that he’s been forced to surrender his assets to the Georgia election workers he defamed — …
…Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea Moss.
The two election workers won a $148 million verdict from a jury in Washington, D.C. after suing Giuliani for severely damaging their reputations and lives by lying that they tried to help steal the 2020 U.S. presidential election from…
…Trump.
Today’s courtroom focus was Giuliani’s reluctance to give up nearly $11 million worth of personal assets — a mere down payment on the total he owes.
Giuliani seethed at the defense table, then suddenly lashed out as he angrily pointed his finger at the judge:
…have a car, I don't have a credit card, I don't have cash," Giuliani ranted. "I can't pay my bills."
Guiliani carried on, whining and complaining that he didn’t “have a penny” that was not tied up in this situation with Freeman and Moss.
Judge Liman responded by…
…warning Giuliani that he was banned from speaking again in court unless testifying under oath — because his lawyer should do the talking.
