Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani condemned U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman during a Manhattan courtroom hearing, claiming that he was “against” him.

Giuliani owes $148 million to Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman, two former Georgia election workers after he was found guilty of accusing them of 2020 election fraud.

On Oct. 22, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman ruled that Giuliani must hand over property expected to fetch several million dollars for Freeman and Moss.

This included his Manhattan apartment, estimated at more than $5 million, which he needed to give to the election workers within the seven days following the ruling.

The former New York City mayor was ordered to give the former Georgia election workers his 1980 Mercedes-Benz Sl 500, formerly owned by Lauren Bacall, a shirt and picture signed, respectively, by Yankees legends Joe Dimaggio and Reggie Jackson, a signed Yankee Stadium picture, a diamond ring, costume jewelry and 26 watches,...

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was ordered to turn over his sports memorabilia and luxury items to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, the Georgia election workers.

On December 15, 2023, a jury in Washington, D.C., ordered Giuliani to pay Freeman and Moss $148 million for false and defamatory claims he made about them, which led him to declare bankruptcy six days later.

Following the 2020 election, the former mayor falsely claimed that the election workers involved in Fulton County, Georgia’s ballot counts, participated in election fraud.

Rudy Giuliani recently lost a civil lawsuit, and will now be forced to turn over his most valuable assets in order to pay off his debts.

According to court documents unsealed on Tuesday, Giuliani has been ordered to turn over some of his most valuable possessions — including property jewelry, and even sports memorabilia — to the two Georgia election workers who won a $150 million defamation lawsuit against the Trump ally late last year.

Included in the list of items to be turned over to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss is a trove of valuable sports memorabilia,...

Secret recordings disclose that former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani had no plans to marry his reported girlfriend, Maria Ryan.

Ryan is president of Giuliani Communications, the company overseeing his podcasts, which he hosts with her, and his other media interests.

A transcript of the recordings was given in a New York court as part of a $10 million sexual harassment lawsuit taken against Giuliani by former employee Noelle Dunphy.

In one of Dunphy’s recordings, made on December 19, 2019, Giuliani allegedly talked about Ryan and her closeness with her family.

“She has this tremendous connection to her family, and she loves me,” the former lawyer noted. “But she can’t leave her family, including her husband.”

He then mentioned no tension between himself and Ryan’s husband, Bob Ryan.

“So, I had Thanksgiving dinner with them again,...

Last week, Judge Sean Lane tossed out Rudy Giuliani‘s bankruptcy case, ruling that the former New York lawyer had been evasive about his assets.

The ruling was in favor of former Georgia election workers Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman, whom Giuliani owes $148 million after he was found guilty of accusing them of 2020 election fraud.

“The lack of financial transparency is particularly troubling given concerns that Mr. Giuliani has engaged in self-dealing and that he has potential conflicts of interest that would hamper the administration of his bankruptcy case,” Lane said in his decision.

Rudy Giuliani, the former Republican mayor of New York City, had his trip to the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee last week bankrolled by the media platform started by My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell, according to Giuliani’s lawyer.

In a letter submitted to the bankruptcy court scrutinizing Giuliani’s finances, his lawyer stated that both Giuliani’s flight and hotel accommodations were covered by Lindell’s FrankSpeech platform. The letter included a statement signed by Lindell on behalf of the media company to confirm that it paid for Giuliani’s trip.

This revelation comes as Giuliani faces mounting financial challenges. He owes approximately $350,000 to a forensic accountant in his bankruptcy case, which the judge is trying to get him to pay or reach a deal to partially pay. Additionally, Giuliani owes around $150 million to creditors, which includes two Georgia election workers he defamed while he worked for former President Donald Trump.

The far-right news site The Gateway Pundit responded to claims of “bankruptcy abuse” during a hearing this Thursday, over a week after confessing he used the company’s finances for personal expenses.

In April, Jim Hoft, the founder of the media site, announced that his company had filed for bankruptcy after facing many lawsuits about false claims it made about the 2020 presidential election.

The Gateway Pundit has endured litigation by election workers and other people who faced harassment after the site made false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

In a bankruptcy filing, the company said it had between $100,000 and $500,000 in liabilities.

It also said it had between $500,000 and $1 million in assets, later revised to $2.3 million.

A bankruptcy judge in Florida will consider a request from creditors – three people suing the site for defamation – mother-and-daughter Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and former Dominion Voting Systems employee Eric Coomer.

On Monday, bankruptcy judge Sean Lane warned that he has serious concerns about Rudy Giuliani’s lack of compliance and cooperation in the former New York City mayor’s Chapter 11 case.

The judge didn’t immediately decide whether to appoint a trustee to oversee Giuliani’s finances but warned of potential “gross mismanagement” after hearing arguments that the 80-year-old has failed to comply with court orders.

A group of creditors asked Lane to appoint a trustee, arguing Giuliani “can’t be trusted because of dishonesty, incompetence and gross mismanagement.” The creditors’ lawyer, Rachel Strickland, said there were “huge red flags” with Giuliani filing incomplete operating reports and “funneling money” through his company.

Despite a court order not to defame Georgia election workers, Ruby Freeman and Shay Moss, Strickland said Giuliani’s recent online post referencing “voter fraud” was a “clear reference” violating that order. She called Giuliani “shrewd” and argued...

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is accused of spending money reserved for his bankruptcy case on his girlfriend and her daughter. Giuliani filed for bankruptcy in December 2023 after he was ordered to pay $148 million to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. The former mayor falsely accused Freeman and Moss of tampering with election results, landing him a defamation lawsuit.

In April, Giuliani faced social media backlash for arguing that he shouldn’t sell his $3.5 million Flordia penthouse in his bankruptcy filing. Records also showed Giuliani spent three times the budget allowed by the court in January, adding up to a whopping $120,000. The former mayor was also said to have spent an additional $43,000 in the following months despite reportedly only earning around $2,000 monthly.

At the end of May, creditors harshly criticized Giuliani for his “egregious spending habits,” citing a “gross mismanagement” of his finances. Giuliani reportedly owes over $150 million to a group of creditors.

A committee of bankruptcy creditors found out that Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani spent nearly $120,000 in January after he agreed to abide by a $43,000 budget.

On December 21, 2023, Giuliani declared bankruptcy six days after a jury in Washington, D.C., ordered him to pay $148 million to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, the two Georgia election workers whom he falsely accused of stealing the 2020 presidential election from his client Donald Trump.

Judge Beryl A. Howell said she was concerned that Giuliani would try to conceal his assets.

The budget Giuliani promised to adhere to was drawn from funds from Social Security and retirement accounts.

His committee of bankruptcy creditors told a bankruptcy judge, who controls his spending that they will not let the former New York City mayor drive his creditors “off a cliff.”

“Unfortunately, the committee is not surprised by the Debtor’s failure to file complete and accurate financial disclosures,” they stated in a court filing.

Jim Hoft, the founder of the right-wing media site The Gateway Pundit, announced that this company filed for bankruptcy after it faced many lawsuits about false claims it made about the 2020 election.

The Gateway Pundit has been facing litigation by election workers and other people who endured harassment after the site made inaccurate claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen.

Some of these lawsuits were made by people who claim to have received numerous threats after being vilified in fake stories.

One lawsuit is being brought by mother-and-daughter Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss. Last year, the pair won a $148 million defamation verdict against the former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

According to the company, the litigation forced it to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in Florida.

Their petition estimated it had assets between $500,000 and $1 million.

In a federal bankruptcy court in Manhattan, former New York City mayor and one-time attorney to Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, revealed his dire financial situation and cited approximately $2 million in unpaid legal fees owed to him by the former president’s campaign and the Republican National Committee.

Giuliani’s testimony, delivered on Wednesday, shed light on his strained financial state, which was exacerbated by a $148 million defamation judgment against him for disseminating false information about the 2020 presidential election.

Giuliani’s bankruptcy filing, under Chapter 11, has left him near financial ruin. “I wouldn’t be bankrupt, up until that,” he lamented during his court appearance.

Despite the increase in his financial challenges, Giuliani has refrained from holding Trump accountable for the outstanding legal fees he claims are owed to him.

Giuliani says that Trump requested that he “take over” the campaign’s legal staff in November 2020, as Trump-aligned attorneys launched an...

Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani declared in a federal bankruptcy court filing that his net income is only $2,308 per month after spending $43,797 monthly in expenses.

On February 2, Giuliani’s documents were submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

In the filings, the former mayor’s assets are valued at over $10.6 million, including a $5.6 million condominium in New York City and a $3.5 million penthouse in Palm Beach, Florida.

His creditors’ attorney, Philip C. Dublin, asserted relevant transfers had not been disclosed.

Giuliani wants the court to modify the $148 million judgment against him in the defamation lawsuit in December due to his bankruptcy.

Dublin argued that Giuliani had made “significant” overstatements and understatements regarding the worth of his assets.

His expenses include $13,500 in court-ordered payments to his mother-in-law and $5,000 in alimony.

Giuliani listed his transportation expenses as $1,600 and groceries, household items, laundry and personal care products expenses as $1,975 a month.

Rudy Giuliani has conceded that statements he made about two Georgia election workers and their role in the 2020 presidential election were false and defamatory.

In a filing in D.C. federal court, Giuliani signed a stipulation in which he acknowledged that the statements he made “carry meaning that is defamatory per se” and that “such actionable statements were false.”

Giuliani is a defendant in a defamation lawsuit brought by Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, the election workers that the former New York mayor had accused of manipulating votes. Freeman and Moss appeared last year before the January 6th Committee and described the harassment and threats they faced amid the accusations.

The concession was made “solely for the purposes of this litigation,” and the filing stated that Giuliani “is desirous to avoid unnecessary expenses in litigating what he believes to be unnecessary disputes.” Giuliani also continues to contest whether Freeman and Moss suffered any damages.

Rudy Giuliani admitted in a court filing Tuesday night that his claims about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss were false.

The concession came as Giuliani tries to settle a defamation lawsuit from Freeman and Moss, whom he falsely accused of participating in a scheme to rig Georgia’s 2020 presidential election in favor of President Biden. “Defendant Giuliani concedes … that the statements carry meaning that is defamatory,” the filing reads, later noting that he “does not contest” that the “statements were false.”

The filing is full of stipulations, including that the...
