Wonder what the Russians have on him. Must be good to make him try and stand in front of a freight train.

63
- Probably a lot of dirt from helping them take down the Italian mob of New York so the Russian mob could take over.

  You know I was just thinking, that's sort of exactly what happened.

  Is there anywhere good I can read about this?

- My theory: CP, like trumps piss video - the piss was not the problem but the age of the pissers was.

  That Borat movie showed us he likes the very young.
  
  12
- Never ascribe to malice what can be explained by stupidity.

  "Just keep giving them the benefit of the doubt!"

- Some of the other stuff that has come out recently (and the Borat sequel hotel scene) make it look like Ghouliani is a rapist or a diddler / both
  
  Would not be shocked if the russians have diddler dirt on him

  Probable. Russian friends in NYC probably provided girls to him and covertly filmed it. I wonder if we will ever know for sure.

When the FBI seized several of his cell phones in April 2021 in a now-closed investigation, much of Giuliani’s electronic records were held on a database operated by a company called Trustpoint.One. But they were archived, and running searches on files the company held for more recent litigation isn’t cheap. Even  hosting his records with the company costs $20,000 a month, according to a recent court filing.

No sympathy at all to the drunk fool, but why is it so expensive?

45
- The price is set at what the market will bear, and they're a "Cadillac" service (e.g. aimed at high-income, white-glove-style clientele) per their "About Us" page

  In his case it doesn't seem like the best choice.

I don't understand why he doesn't just ask Trump for the money? It's not like Trump has a history of stiffing and being cheap? I'm sure Trump will give G the money to keep him quiet. It's not like Trump will throw G under the bus the moment it's beneficial.

- Trump has been shooting himself in the foot forever. Here's my favorite Trump story.
  
  The tl, dr is that he built Trump Tower to become beloved of the Manhattan elites. He acted like a big baby and made them hate him.

- He did literally beg him, in person, with his attorney present:

Who’s willing to bet that if it does start to look bad, this guy will suddenly appear as a frail old man in too bad shape to properly face justice. No more make-up or hairdye.

Reminds me of a Pink Floyd lyric:

And when you lose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown

And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone

And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around

So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone

Dragged down by the stone

31
- From the best Floyd album, imo.

The post right above this "After Years of Spreading Lies, Election Deniers Face Consequences" ...seems like it.

29
Oh nooooooo.

Anyway...

21
I loved his work on Borat 2

20
I'm sure he can still get a discount at the Four Seasons....

15
- Four seasons file hosting, search, and criminal lawyer service.

Bootlicking fool.

13
Couldn't have happened to a more melt into a black puddle kinda guy.

13
I put money on Rudy and Jenna to flip first, if they haven't already, on Trump.

12
- I hope not. Giuliani deserves to rot in prison

  Oh he's going to jail, but he's going to do whatever it takes to make sure he doesn't take all the heat.
  
  1
That's alright, he's going to have a nice little place to live with meals the rest of his live shortly and then he won't have to worry about his finances

11
Money is the least of his worries. He's going to prison.

In the Game of Thrones you either win, or you get fux0r3d newb.

- Brought down by his own hubris and greed.

Lol.

Good. He fucked around, and now he’s finding out.

Sad trombone noises.

Couldn't be happening to a better person-like ghoul.

GOOD. Ruin him.

7
Can he struggle in jail too, or is that too much to ask?

6
Maybe he can make some money doing stand up with his hilarious asian person impression

Thoughts and prayers

Good.

He should get LegalEagle to pay for another congrats video!

Yet somehow he still has a spokesperson.

2
- I would agree to be his spokesperson for 20 dollars a pop and bottle of jack.
  
  I promise to exceed the standards he has come to expect from his spokespeople.

When you can’t beat your political opposition, cheat and prosecute them!

-44
- But they did lose. That's what the Georgia prosection is all about.
  
  20
- 4 indictments (so far), 94 charges (so far), RICO charges, many of us watched in realtime as all this dumb shit was happening as it was fucking obvious, overwhelming proof, even his own people have turned on him, now law and order is coming for him and his useful idiots.
  
  I'm sure your either a paid troll, or a pol/ edgelord troll, or perhaps someone who has been a victim of the propaganda machine - this post is hoping you have just been a victim of the rightwing outrage and misinformation media industrial complex, and I hope you get better
  
  15
- That does seem to be the Republican strategy. Well, prosecute your opposition's children anyway. But it doesn't seem to be working out the way they'd hoped.
  
  11
- "Lock her up"
  
  11
- Hmmm looks like you’re confused on who the loser is here
  
  7
- Go to bed Rudy you’re drunk again 🤣
  
  6
- Well, Biden did beat Trump, but Giuliani isn't running for anything so he's not the opposition.
