Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani appeared in court on Tuesday to discuss his $148 million payment to Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss, following a defamation lawsuit. Giuliani claimed he is broke and unable to pay, leading to an outburst in court.
NEW YORK - Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani appeared in court Tuesday to face questions about his payments in the Georgia election defamation case. In a surprise outburst during the hearing, Giuliani claimed he's out of money. Giuliani owes $148 million to Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss, the Georgia election workers who successfully sued him for defamation over false claims connected to the 2020 presidential election.
His new attorney claimed that 90% of the required assets have been turned over. A motion to delay the trial was denied. 'It went exactly as I expected. He ruled against us on everything,' Giuliani said. 'The reality is I have no cash. It's all tied up. If I wanted to call a taxi cab, I can't do it. I don't have a credit card. I don't have a checking account.
