Never forget that Rudy built his reputation as a tough Mayor by arresting homeless people and bullying Civil Servants who couldn't fight back.

Watching his self inflicted injuries fester is a pleasure.

"Hey, I can't afford to actually pay you, but think of the exposure!"

This is the best summary I could come up with:


“Nobody seems interested” in helping Rudy Giuliani meet accounting obligations in his ongoing bankruptcy case, lawyers for the former New York mayor, presidential hopeful and Trump attorney said in a court filing on Tuesday.

After that effort failed he went into the lucrative consulting business but in recent years he has become something of a political pariah, in large part due to his work for and on behalf of Donald Trump and incidents of controversial behaviour.

In 2020, Giuliani’s work challenging election results in key states produced multiple courtroom defeats, mounting national hilarity, disbarment proceedings and, in Georgia, criminal charges in a case which also saw Trump indicted.

Giuliani filed for bankruptcy in New York in December last year, after being ordered to pay $148m in a defamation case brought by two Georgia poll workers he claimed were involved in election subversion during Trump’s defeat in the state in 2020.

Filings showed debts totaling $500m, after a downfall precipitous even by the standards of other Trump allies who have fallen from grace while the former president (and 88-times charged criminal defendant) has maintained his grip on Republican politics.

Giuliani is due to publish a book, The Biden Crime Family: The Blueprint for Their Prosecution, through an imprint linked to Steve Bannon, another close Trump ally.
