'I can't pay my bills,' Rudy Giuliani says in courtroom outburst

Rudy Giuliani was rebuked by a federal judge on Tuesday after the former New York City mayor interrupted a court hearing, pleading he could not pay his bills because two Georgia election workers to whom he owes $148 million have tied up his assets.

Giuliani, once a personal lawyer for U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, spoke ahead of a January trial to determine which assets he must surrender to Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea Moss.

The two election workers won the $148 million verdict from a jury in Washington, D.C. after accusing Giuliani of destroying their reputations by lying that they tried to help steal the 2020 U.S. presidential election from Trump.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman in Manhattan previously threatened Giuliani with civil contempt for failing to surrender assets, including a luxury Manhattan apartment, to partially cover what he owes.

1. Hook up with trump.

You may not be able to pay your bills.

[RockRaven]

2. Shouldn't have defamed two ladies to the tune of $148M then, Rudy.

Pretty simple...

[marble falls]

3. Gee that's a shame he can't pay his bills. I hear Walmart is hiring greeters.

[muriel_volestrangler]

5. He wouldn't pass the interview. They might pay him to hang around competitors' stores

to put customers off their lunch.

[IzzaNuDay]

40. Walmart got rid of DEI!

Rudy doesn't stand a chance of being hired for a greeter!

[SWBTATTReg]

4. Scumbag. He thinks nothing of destroying the lives of other innocents so he can play w/ the big boys on the

political stage.

Instead, he struck out and lost big time to these two wonderful women.

I hope that they get something soon, since rudi seems to be hiding assets, among other things, claiming he's broke, and doing all sorts of crap to avoid paying them anything.

[Jim__]

6. I'm sure your good friend Donnie would lend you some money, Rudy.

[PSPS]

7. He obviously has no problem paying his tab at bars and liquor stores

[Vinca]

8. Maybe he can squat at Mar-a-Grifto. Now that all those boxes have been moved there's a storage room empty.

[HuskyOffset]

20. Rudy has his eye on that bathroom that had the boxes (nt)

[OldBaldy1701E]

37. And, there is no telling whether or not he got a peek into any of that stuff.

I trust him with that information about as much as I trust that orange gibbon with it.

[bluestarone]

9. What is the sentence for

Perjury? Nail his ass!!

[EarthFirst]

10. You'll have to ask TSF to curry favor from his sugar daddy...

…maybe a suitable allowance can be arranged.

Get fuc*ked Rudy…

[pfitz59]

11. I'm sure his pension would cover an efficiency studio

in a shitty part of town. The "bills' he can't pay are lifestyle choices. Bankruptcy judges allow minimalist living expense. He can go to the food bank or senior center like everyone else.

[HariSeldon]

19. Nah, Rudy FAd w/ the bankruptcy judge

His bankruptcy case was dismissed and he's not allowed to file another for 12 months, so he has no federal protections of his assets. I'm other words, he's at the Find Out stage.

[2naSalit]

12. Was he...

Actually paying them before this?

[Ray Bruns]

13. If he doesn't have any money, how is he planning on attending Trump's inauguration?

[riversedge]

14. I wonder how Rudy G feels knowing his buddy Trump is getting off scott free.

[Karasu]

15. Yeah, well, neither can most of the country--not that he or anyone in his fucking party gives a shit.

Get fucked, Rudy.

[Grokenstein]

16. The judge might have had a little more sympathy for you, Dribbles...

...had you not put on a full display in public of flouting rulings and flaunting wealth.

Now you can die in the gutter with the rest of us Poors.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

17. These courtroom sketches really made me smile

Link to tweet

[republianmushroom]

18. Rudy, you will find a way to pay your bills.

Common folks do.

[TheRickles]

21. If he's found in contempt, does he go to prison (ie, free room and board)?

[turbinetree]

22. GO down to the subway and ask for some spare change.............or go over to the Kellogg home in Florida

and see if the dead beat will give some of his money from his watches. tennis shoes, guitar sales (that he got a cease and desist order) in fact you can rent a cart and have the shoes and watches on display and get a cut..........

[Emile]

23. So has he paid anything as of yet?

[Lulu KC]

24. Maybe Four Seasons Landscaping has an opening

[Baron2024]

25. At Least Giuliani Is Being Brought To Justice.

Him and a ton of January 6th Criminals have been held accountable. The real crime is that the ringleader, Trump, has escaped justice. Which is entirely Merrick Garland's fault for slow-walking the cases against Trump. Garland is a traitor to justice and democracy.

[wcmagumba]

26. Join the club, low fixed income (SS only)....I can pay mine but have to budget...NT

Just life in my world...

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

27. Cry Me a River

[tonekat]

28. Maybe Rudy can bunk with Leon

At Mar-a-Loathing.

A bro com for the fascist era.

[AverageOldGuy]

29. Rudy, ol' boy, here are some suggestions

Get a job. McDonald's is hiring.

Call your friend Trump and ask him for help.

GFY.

[JoseBalow]

30. For god's sake! Somebody please pass Rudy a hanky!

[kacekwl]

31. Who is paying for

the limo the security the airfare back and forth NY/Florida the lawyers and more importantly the booze.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

32. What about the money Trump owes you?

[radical noodle]

33. There might be some jobs picking oranges in Florida

Tis the season! They might even let him have one or two a day so he'll have something to eat.

[cstanleytech]

34. Talk to the hand Rudy ✋

[cab67]

35. he couldn't pay his bills?

The women he defamed couldn't live their lives.

Actions have consequences. I'd have thought a former prosecutor would know that.

[MissMillie]

36. Somebody call a WAAAAMBULANCE. (n/t)

.

[Picaro]

38. Zero sympathy

Haven’t liked Giuliani for a long time.

He’s always been a corrupt racist asshole who built his reputation largely on things he didn’t do (America’s mayor my ass) like take care of 9-11 first responders or shouldn’t have done like the grossly racist, overtly classist stop & frisk policy.

But now apparently someone needs to explain to him that bankruptcy often comes with some discomfort. And this one is entirely self inflicted.

He didn’t have to defame these honest, upright women. But he did and, indeed, hasn’t stopped.

So fuck’em. Trump should’ve gotten the same treatment. But it is some consolation that Giuliani is in the process of losing everything.

[dchill]

39. Rudy has poor-people problems. That's fair.

[bdamomma]

41. ......................

[GoodRaisin]

42. He is a colossal asshole who is getting all he deserves.

I hope they don’t even leave him a bottle to piss in or a box to shit in.
