So it seems like if you try to overthrow the US government you could really get into trouble.Unless you're the leader of that group.Clearly, Rudy Giuliani, who helped or drunkenly advised the Trump team on election night in 2020, “Just tell them we won.” A New York lawyer has been disbarred after a court ruled he repeatedly lied about Trump's election loss.
This is the latest in a series of incredible twists of fate for a man who was once widely known as, and for a time was, “America's Mayor.” The clear frontrunner for the 2008 GOP presidential nomination. He also becomes the latest dumb idiot in a party that has long been plagued by dumb idiots to have its life completely ruined by Trump.
Associated Press:
The court ruled that Giuliani “falsely and dishonestly” claimed that thousands of votes were cast in the 2020 presidential election in Philadelphia under the names of deceased people, including ballots bearing the name of the late boxer Joe Frazier. He also falsely claimed that he brought people from nearby Camden, New Jersey, to vote illegally in the Pennsylvania city.
The order came after Giuliani, who is already a licensed New York attorney, Stopped If he makes a false statement after the election, he must “cease and desist from practicing law in any way,” including giving opinions on the law or the application of the law or advice to others, or “holding himself out in any way as a lawyer or legal adviser.”
Last month, the DC Bar's Professional Responsibility Committee We recommend that Giuliani be disbarred from his attorney license in Washington, D.C.About trying to overturn the Pennsylvania election results in hopes of putting Trump back on the Golden Throne. But since Rudy made his name in New York, it would hurt more than just casually walking through LaGuardia Airport on Tuesday morning to find the duty-free scotch shop had been replaced by a Jamba Juice Express.
Of course, Rudy has made himself known as a fool throughout Trump's slow coup attempt. Now his failure is complete. We all remember the Four Seasons Total Landscaping fiasco that helped Giuliani plant the seeds of the election-stealing myth. Between a cheap sex shop and a makeup salon—subliminally conveys the overall story trajectory of America during Trump’s second term.
Then there was ~. Hair dye press conferenceMeanwhile, Rudes continued to rant nonsense, but was quickly drowned out by the sticky liquid spurting from his pumpkin.
But Giuliani is not the first or only individual to face a backlash for trying to install a lawless, unaccountable dictator who thinks it's more important for the government to pay the salaries of Diet Coke drinkers than to preserve American democracy.
The list of Trump coup lawyers who have been disbarred, indicted, or otherwise disciplined is infamously long: Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro, John Eastman, Jeffrey Clarke. Everyone suffered their share of consequences. And then there's Jenna Ellis. Former Trump sycophant Who took it Defendant Negotiations on Georgia Election Overturn Case His license to practice law in Colorado was suspended for three years.
But Rudy may be the most tragic member of Trump's reptilian brain trust. His reward for his spit-like submission to our imitator monarch and slave trader is being disbarred from his hometown bar. $148 million defamation verdictAnd existence Forced to pay legal fees Oh my god, this guy is Trump again.
But he needn't worry too much. Trump will find something to do. If Trump doesn't return to the White House, he will undoubtedly give Rudy a chance to pay off his $148 million debt by giving him an increasingly enthusiastic sponge bath. And if King Trump does return, he will throw him some kind of consolation prize. Last time, instead of making Rudy attorney general, he appointed him cybersecurity adviser. Then Rudy forgot his password and locked out of his phone. So if we're lucky, Trump could put him in charge of the nuclear codes, making it much less likely that our dear leader will do so. Drop a nuclear bomb on a hurricane or Attacking North Korea and trying to blame others. Unless Trump has good sense. Call me an Apple Genius-he is Obviously not—So don't tell anyone, okay?
And even if both of those plans fail, Giuliani can always return. Cameo shot. It should be noted, however, that none of these cameos are to be construed as legal advice, as Rudy can't be a lawyer.
That said, there is a lot of legal wisdom to be gained. this Cameo. (i.e. don't do illegal things on behalf of criminals who don't care about anyone but themselves. It often doesn't work out as planned.)
So, cheers to Rudy Giuliani, the mayor of the United States and the little teapot who was disbarred from the bar! Good luck with the future, even if it is dark.
