Ghouliani's NYC Apartment Raided By The Feds

A better link. I forgot the NY Post requires subscription.

Really????!!!

I hope while they were searching they found his neck.

[bold]JOE BIDEN IS GONNA TAKE AWAY YOUR MEAT-BASED BEER! MR. POTATO HEAD IS TRANS!! KILLARY IS GETTING SICK FROM DRINKING THE BLOOD OF CHILDREN!![/bold]

[quote] Really????!!!

No, Rose: it's another of the New York Times's pranks.

Deranged mafioso cunt deserves the clink.

You're in the shithouse now pal.

[quote]While the warrant is not an explicit accusation of wrongdoing against Mr. Giuliani, it shows that the investigation has entered an aggressive new phase. To obtain a search warrant, investigators need to persuade a judge they have sufficient reason to believe that a crime was committed and that the search would turn up evidence of the crime.

Tee hee

We didn’t have to kick in the door. Mr. Giuliani’s keyless lock was predictably set at 9-1-1.

I hope amidst this investigation they also turn-up info about Hunter's nude pics and videos. I don't believe for a second that they were on some laptop forgotten at a repair store. I bet they were hacked from his smartphone by the Chinese- at Rudy's request.

Also hope for more links between Rudy and other foreign powers like Russia and Ukraine. He spent a lot time hobbling around eastern Europe the past couple years.

I hope Maria Bakalova hand-delivered the search warrant to him.

He's got to have some sex pics on his phone or inappropriate websites. Would be great to see him charged.

At least the daughter ran 🏃‍♀️toward the light. The son not so much!

And of course Cover-up General Bill Barr had previously blocked it.

This has put me in a very good mood!

But since ghouliani knew it was coming he’s had months to scrub his devices. They’ll find nothing.

R18 in case you forgot. Rudy has a tendency to never do anything right.

You'd be very surprised how arrogant and stupid people like him can be. I see him as the type who'd think "they'd never raid the fucking former mayor of NYC's house".

Yee-haw!

It's about Ukraine, illegal "lobbying" to try to dig up dirt on the Bidens.

I'm hoping some of his pals still left in the FBI kept assuring him that there wouldn't be any investigation, plus also, as others said, he's a cosmic, perpetual fuck-up.

If they took his electronic advices, I’m sure they’ll find some other...interesting content. Remember: Before Borat 2, he was considering joining the seminary.

You in danger, gurl

But Hillary's emails!!!!

Kamala's children's books!!!!!

Obama's tan suit!!!!

Biden's dog pooping in the White House!!!!

For some reason "Four Seasons Total Landscaping" is trending on Twitter but "Giuliani" is not.

Twitter gonna Twitter, I guess.

America’s Mayor!!!!!!!!!!!

He'll plead mental incompetence because it's true.

Bring me my Caftan of Joy!

Which one r29?

I bet the hair dye is flowing quite nicely...

Oh how I would love you guys to be right.

The Emilio Pucci beach caftan, R30. You may otherwise mind your business - unless you're a rough daddy top.

R32.

He's too pretty to go to jail!

Pee-YEW!

ARUGULA OVER 5G! CLINTON'S PENIS! CULTURAL ELITES! DR. SEUSS BEING FORCED TO DO A TRANS BY THE SQUAD!

So Bill Barr allowed him to cover his tracks, put that fat lard ass in jail too.

I'm disappointed he wasn't yet frogmarched out in cuffs like Russell Crowe. We can only hope for the future.

Rudy has considered himself untouchable for quite awhile now; I wouldn't be surprised if he left shit laying all over - he's that arrogant.

But be careful FBI, there's no doubt dick picks & granny porn mixed in there too - we don't want you to be traumatized!

[quote]I hope he shat himself.

Why should today be any different?

I bet his face is drenched in flop sweat and Just For Men right about now

Giuliani naked selfies? It could happen.

Maybe the FBI will depose all his contacts at Ashley Madison and SugarDaddies.

I want to thank whoever came up with "Ghouliani." I laugh every time I see it.

I hope he pulls a Parscale and has to be tackled while he screams and sobs. God, that moment was so sweet!

What a fabulous Wednesday! Thanks Joe Biden and Merrick Garland DOJ!

How utterly delicious!

I agree with Bootsy. Barr's earlier quashing of the warrant was a signal to Giuliani to start shredding. I hope I'm wrong but I'm another who doubts this will uncover much. Giuliani is a whack job but even he's not that stupid.

No collusion! No collusion!

I too was about to make a Just For Men joke but the picture at the top of the NYT article when I first saw it made it look like he'd lost all but about 12 straggly hairs. They've since replaced it with a different photo but it used to be this one.

GIULIANI INVITES FEDS OVER FOR COFFEE

[quote]Barr's earlier quashing of the warrant was a signal to Giuliani to start shredding

You may be right, but didn't Barr hate Giuliani? Plus, Giuliani seemed to be under the impression that he was going to get some blanket pardon from Dump.

Whatever the case, I am not getting my hopes up until he's pulled out of his apartment in his PJs, weeping inconsolably. But it's a step in the right direction at least.

I predict: he'll stop dying his hair, start using a cane or a walker, & suddenly turn "old." Maybe start wearing a bathrobe on the streets.

^ He can borrow my walker

I'll just leave this here

Rudy clearly knew the FBI was going to "reopen the investigation" on Hillary in 2016 before Comey sent his letter, he all but said so on a Sunday news show, then later walked it back and the media just let him get away with it.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out some of Rudy's pals spilled the beans on the Hunter Biden drives before it happened, like what was suggested in r54. These guys can't keep their yaps shut.

[quote]I wouldn't be surprised if he left shit laying all over

Pics please.

Guessing all the good stuff is in the computer folder labeled "INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE - DELETE DELETE DELETE BEFORE FEDS ARRIVE!!"

At least Andrerson’s show will lead with this tonight. For the past few weeks it’s been nothing but stuff about the latest shooting of African-Americans. Anderson’s show should be all about justice for all Americans via the exposure/destruction of Giuliani, Jordan, Gaetz, Hawley, Barr,Kavanaugh, etc.

The Feds won't need anything when Rudy called for "Combat" as the leader of the insurrection on January 6. It's all on tape.

R51, Barr may have grown to hate Giuliani but if this has to do with the Ukraine scandal that led to the first impeachment, then Barr would overlook his feelings (or whatever facsimile he had) about Rudy to protect Trump.

Rachel promised it would be a busy news week!

Manhattanites' smiles are beaming today, mask-free!

Rudy (or spokesperson) to speak at 3pm eastern?

Probably tons of Russian porn on those computers.

HAHAHA

also HAHAHA because that evil bitch Victoria Toensing got raided too! She's been 1 of the worst peddlers of anti-Hillary propaganda for years on right wing media.

It must be so fun to be in law enforcement, do they all sit around an eagerly look through his phone like teenage boys looking at their first issue of Penthouse?

I hope he was on Tinder.

He backed out of the public statement, I guess.

Anyone else notice the irony of Rudy's house number being "45?"

[quote] Remember: Before Borat 2, he was considering joining the seminary.

Link.

Rudy deleted everything, but left it all in the TRASH folder.

If they also raided Toensing then I guess this has something to do with Firtash? Lanny Davis just signed on to represent Firtash about 10 days ago, no idea if that's related to today's raids, though.

[quote]LANNY DAVIS has registered as a foreign agent to represent DMYTRO FIRTASH, the Ukrainian billionaire who played a key role in Trump’s first impeachment saga and is facing federal bribery charges in Chicago. Davis, a partner at Davis Goldberg & Galper, was previously part of Firtash’s legal team in 2019, but he was dropped in favor of JOSEPH DIGENOVA and VICTORIA TOENSING, the Trump-aligned conservative lawyers who reportedly met with BILL BARR about the Firtash case. With Trump gone, Davis is back — at $50,000 per month, according to his FARA registration, which was submitted to the Department of Justice last night.

[quote]“I am pleased to rejoin the legal defense team led by DAN WEBB of Winston & Strawn to prove that Mr. Firtash is innocent of the charges filed against him by U.S. prosecutors in Chicago,” Davis told Playbook. “I hope that the Chicago federal prosecutors and U.S. Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. will re-evaluate the case as I believe it will be determined that there are no facts to support any of the charges against Mr. Firtash.”

stunning to think this guy used to be the head of the SDNY and was known for taking on the mob. Then he aligned with basically a mob boss himself

Is he in dire financial straits? I don't get why he'd throw his career away to commit crimes for Trump of all people. 1 of the most stunning falls in US history

I didn't understand why Dershowitz threw away his reputation for Trump, either.

R69 I'm getting excited check this tweet by a lawyer

"Victoria Toensing" now trending on twitter haha

isn't it interesting how so many Fox favorites are going down the drain

R70, Giuliani was a known nutcase from a long time ago. 9/11 happened and some New Yorkers felt he rose to the occasion and was a comforting presence. He had rehabbed his image and then went back to his usual ways, apparently.

Lev Parnas, former Giuliani associate and international man of mystery, has weighed in.

lmfao after this nonsense tweet a few days ago, Toensing is getting trolled hard today in the replies

[quote]I didn't understand why Dershowitz threw away his reputation for Trump, either.

He didn't have any reputation to throw away.

I wonder if he knows any good lawyers. I bet his psycho ex-wife would be happy to blab anything she might know...could be fun.

Yeah, Dershowitz was a known sleazebag.

Fox will go 1 of 2 routes on these developments.

A) ignore it completely and choose not to inform their viewers of what's happening while instead finding some bullshit reason to attack Biden tonight

B( start a conspiracy that the "Biden DOJ Is corrupt and authoritarian by going after associates of Trump". Then they'll try to ruin the reputations of anyone involved in these investigations like what they did with the Mueller probe

R80, I'll go with A - that's what they're doing with the Matt Gaetz story. Ignoring it

There was some ex-colleague or more than one on I think Ari Melber a few years back saying "Rudy is not the Rudy he was" and then going on to imply alcoholism and serious loss of mental facilities.

R72, stop listening to random nobodies on Twitter who don’t know shit.

Some Twitter trolls are going with the "Biden DOJ is corrupt" angle, so we might see that on Fox, but I think they like to keep their propaganda super simple so ignoring it would probably be more likely.

I hope the Feds did not take the two Razzie awards Rudy just won for his work in the newest Borat film. That would seem gratuitous.

Off-topic: Did we remember to send Melania birthday greetings on April 26? No? Betcha she could use a hug today.

Now, back to our regular programming.

R86, is she now officially an old whore?

R37 reminds me of a commenter at Dlisted in the olden days who used to post funny nonsense shit in the Britney Spears posts. “Toilet bats” was my favorite.

R16 Bill Barr main role was being Trump's Mr. Fix-it. Much of what he did was to run cover for Trump, no represent the citizens of the USA, which is who he is working for. Barr also needs to be investigated, charged and dis-BARRed.

[quote]I hope the Feds did not take the two Razzie awards Rudy just won for his work in the newest Borat film. That would seem gratuitous.

It would be gratuitous if one of the agents took a dump in the master bathroom and didn't flush, but I still hope they did.

51 year old prostitution whore, R87.

It couldn’t happen to a nicer gurl. Trump next.

They found Rudy had outlined Trump's legal strategy

on the back of a napkin from the Four Seasons

I was JUST saying to my husband "when are they going to prosecute Trump and family?" I really hope this is the start of it.

“I want to thank whoever came up with "Ghouliani." I laugh every time I see it.”

No problem - one of my better ones.

Frances McDormand as a mouthy MAGA supporter who storms the Capitol

Rudy is busy putting shoe polish on his few remaining wisps of hair...

in preparation for his next news conference

can we get the FEDS to go after barr, those in congress and the "opinion" hosts on faux news next!!!!!!!

Thoughts and prayers going out to the associate tasked to go through Giuliani's browser history.

Dataloungers, I love you.

He’s gonna jump off a building

Andrew Giuliani outside the apartment building whining about the raid.

He'll accidentally "fall" out of a window

[quote]The United States attorney’s office in Manhattan and the F.B.I. had sought for months to secure search warrants for Mr. Giuliani’s phones and electronic devices.

[quote]Under Mr. Trump, senior political appointees in the Justice Department repeatedly sought to block such a warrant, The New York Times reported, slowing the investigation as it was gaining momentum last year. After Merrick B. Garland was confirmed as Mr. Biden’s attorney general, the Justice Department lifted its objection to the search.

Excellent. Get all of these scumbags, Mr. Garland. Drain the swamp, especially by removing the slimy orange plug himself.

This means that this phase of the corruption investigation is winding down quickly and soon it'll be Donald Trump's turn in the hot seat. I cannot wait. Lock them both up and let them rot in prison. They'll both most likely die there.

[quote]Andrew Giuliani outside the apartment building whining about the raid.

Andrew has a problem pronouncing "politicization."

Andrew has a problem pronouncing his name, where as dad has a problem remembering it.

Giuliani's talents are overrated. You don't have to be that smart to be mayor of NYC, just corrupt in the right ways.

Is his apartment in a Trump building?

No, he lives in a very nice building on Madison Avenue.

R102, the idiot son of a former federal prosecutor whining about an FBI raid and the DOJ. Too funny.

I don’t know him but I wish him well.

Even if Rudy managed to find the "delete" button...computers are forever. The FBI is able to retrieve deleted material in most instances. And tech-savvy Rudy is most definitely not.

I don't know him very well. I only met him a couple times.

[quote] If they took his electronic advices,

No one in their right mind would take his advice.

[quote] Rudy deleted everything, but left it all in the TRASH folder.

I’m laughing because I can see me doing something like that.

Where are Rudy's DL defenders, insisting how he united the country after September 11th?

R116-- At Four Seasons Landscaping Company. The crematorium has been waiting for Ole Rudy for months now.

Did he toot when they showed up?

Thoughts and prayers...

Unless he had it done professionally, deleting a file off a computer, a text off a phone, etc. is hardly foolproof. Guess we will see.

Hopefully Devin Nunes is next

This one never gets old:

R108 He lives in this building on Madison and 66 Street.

His co-op board (indeed, all his neighbors) must HATE him. All that press in front of the building.

I’m sure djt & friends warned him this was coming - he would be an absolute idiot if he didn’t have everything professionally erased.

[quote] [R102], the idiot son of a former federal prosecutor whining about an FBI raid and the DOJ. Too funny.

Exactly. People want "law and order" until *their* house gets raided with a search warrant.

“It’s not unusual, it’s not unusual, it’s not unusual..” this is unusual! 🤡

Didn’t he make some comment once that he had “insurance” against Trump in case he ever turned on him. If so, I hope it’s true and discoverable.

R125 I assume they’ve been tapping his phone lines for a while now…

R128 I have no doubt if Giuliani can save himself somewhat by turning on Trump, he'd do it. I hope it happens but he'll likely still get charged with something

Imagine all the neighbors in that posh part of NYC with the Feds there haha must have been hilarious to see the pearl clutching

Love that Andrew Guiliani was the one to meet the cameras today to defend Rudy. He thinks raising his profile by calling this politically motivated, when you know it’s likely to result in an arrest, will not enhance his chances in the gubernatorial race (though I’d vote for Angelyne to run California before voting for Andrew as trash collector).

CNN's 5 Points about Giuliani's involvement in the Ukraine mess, all of which implicate him as an agent provacateur in foreign states re the US, meddling in foreign governments. The ultimate source of the money that Parnas and his sidekick were trying to use to buy influence in Ukraine was a Russian national, and the entire business STINKS. I hope the investigation leads to charges and a conviction, and destroys Giuliani.

Will this lead to Stone's arrest too?

Can you make sure they don't take all his money and assets because we're gonna be needing some of those?

If there is a God, there will be photos leaked from Rudy's phone showing him dressed as Marilyn Monroe with a butt plug up his ass getting spanked by a big ugly Russian hooker. If this happens, I will renounce a lifetime of atheism and accept that God exists.

*Not that I want to have that image seared into my brain, but it'd be fun to send it around constantly to all of my MAGAt deplorable shithead relatives*

At any point was he seen, ahem, “tucking in his shirt”?

It's a gorgeous building. The architectural firm also designed Alwyn Court at 58th and Seventh Avenue. The name of the firm was Harde & Short. Win a few, lose a few.

[quote]Frances McDormand as a mouthy MAGA supporter who storms the Capitol

And desecrates it by shitting in the hallway.

Ugh I have to say... I’m sure those apartments/condos/co-ops cost a mint, but window air conditioners? Just no.

[quote]Imagine all the neighbors in that posh part of NYC with the Feds there haha must have been hilarious to see the pearl clutching

"It's rilly GHASTLY!"

Do you think Rudy held in his farts while his apartment was raided?

Aside from the political aspect, consider that the Feds have executed search warrants at the homes of two attorneys. They hate doing that under any circumstances. I worked on a small case in a regional office that involved sleazy lawyers. The lead attorney wouldn't even consider warrants for their homes. At that point, it required the AG to sign off, IIRC.

[quote] computers are forever

As is sedition, unlike Giuliani's hair dye.

Did he have a chance to bleach his emails?

This Ukraine stuff must have happened a long time ago. Does he even have the same computers? Why did this take so long?

Because corrupt Bill Barr blocked any investigation.

I'm Sarah Jessica Parker as Kellyanne Conway.

Exactly one month until Ghoulianus's 77th birthday. Hell be in jail by then.

Oldsters don't like trading in the tech they have for the unfamiliar, updated stuff. There IS that, ahem...

What makes this delicious is that the DOJ had to get a judge to okay this warrant, and judges are notoriously and extremely cautious of signing a warrant on 1) an attorney 2) with Ghouliani's background in LE 3) who represent(ed) anyone politically powerful (like a FORMER president) 4) unless there is overwhelming evidence of criminality.

Shit just got real.

^Agreed, seizing the computers and devices of a President's attorney is a pretty serious commitment on the part of a prosecutor. I'm sure Donny-boy is highly perturbed and will be squealing like the proverbial pig before the weekend.

[quote]Aside from the political aspect, consider that the Feds have executed search warrants at the homes of two attorneys.

Trump-connected attorneys with executed FBI search warrants: Cohen, Ghouliani and this Victoria woman. Is it just these three?

There should be binders full of Trumpist attorneys with warrants. AG Garland, get crackin!

When they raid your apartment and take you away, you'll be crying, "But -- I was one of the good ones!"

And so it begins :)

I've never heard of judges being reluctant to sign search warrants for attorneys' houses and property. Seems like judges like to stick it to practicing attorneys.

They took everything EXCEPT the hard drive w Hunter Biden's kiddie porn. Hmmm . . .

What reputation, R71?

From Ghouliani's son Andrew Giuliani: "Any American, whether you are red or blue, should be extremely disturbed by what happened here today, by the continued politititation [sic] of the Justice Department."

Oh, dear--politititation? That's 2 tits!

Pop the popcorn....Rudy will be on Tucker Carlson's show tomorrow.

That's a whole lot of crazy. Will the ghost of Dan White join them?

Simon Shuster, [italic]Time:[/italic]

[quote]Many of Giuliani’s associates in Ukraine have helped investigators ahead of today’s raids on his home. One told me he spoke to FBI agents for 10 hours straight in a DC hotel. Another says he volunteered the passwords to his phone and email, then explained each message from Rudy

R157 No it's Matt Gaetz who sold children for sex to his fellow Republicans on the House floor and gave the kids Ecstasy and money for "tuition" and "school". It's an actual Republican pedophile ring. Go figure.

Who, who, who ... will be Rudy Giuliani's lawyer? They should demand weekly payment, up front, like how Rudy demanded it from Trump.

[quote]I'm Sarah Jessica Parker as Kellyanne Conway.

You can lead a horse to Datalounge, but you can't make her post on the right thread.

Rudy did not take his pants off alone a bedroom with what he thought was a 15 year old girl. That's just Rudy being Rudy...

Daaaaaaaaaaaad, I'm next ffs you cunt!

^ That thing was an abortion that lived.

Sometimes I regret the old laws back in the old country that the whole family of a disgraced mayor could be sent to the Gulag.

[quote]“I expect that a big part of this investigation relates to whether any Ukrainian paid Giuliani to use his relationship with Trump to influence the U.S. government,” (Daniel) Goldman told us.

I just have a feeling rudy wasn't smart enough to get rid of any incriminating evidence

Untreated syphilis? Alcoholism? Prescription drugs?

AMERICA’S MAYOR!!!!!!!!

A little of all r171? Throw in dementia too.

[quote] But since ghouliani knew it was coming he’s had months to scrub his devices. They’ll find nothing.

At least that's what you hope. You sound like a republican apologist and defender.

[quote]But since ghouliani knew it was coming he’s had months to scrub his devices. They’ll find nothing.

And you actually think Rudy took the precautions necessary to keep the data away from forensic IT specialists? You're just adorable.

[quote]Just a reminder that Toensing also represented Sean Hannity... and Sean Hannity was busy during illegal Ukraine pressure:

There is some serious THERE there for the feds to do this. Just like there's serious there there for the feds to seize a sitting congressman's cell phone (Hello, Matt Gaetz!)

THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL!THIS IS NOT NORMAL! THIS IS NOT NORMAL!THIS IS NOT NORMAL!

Coda: Everything Trump touches dies.

hopefully more Trump associates get raided

[quote]Coda: Everything Trump touches dies.

R177 assessed it accurately. Though I'd like to see Trump tried for his crimes, if the best we get is that every one of his associates meets a miserable end (as they already tend to do), it'll satisfy. If the lesson is just that throwing one's lot in with a grifter results in the grifter going free while his flunkies end up destroyed, it's still a good lesson for people tempted to flock to crooked pieces of shit like Trump to learn.

I hope Lindsay Graham and Ted Cruz reap similar rewards.

I want Steve Bannon, Stephen Miller and Robert Stone to all be ruined.

It’s cumming R180

[quote] But since ghouliani knew it was coming he’s had months to scrub his devices. They’ll find nothing

he can barely manage to scrub his face after the shoe polish on his scalp drips all over it

Giuliani gave Comey his first job in 1987 to work as an assistant US attorney in the Southern District of New York. At the time, Giuliani was the US attorney and Comey's boss.

Incorrect heading for this thread. It should have read 'Two time Razzie winner Ghouliani's NYC Apartment Raided by the Feds.

I wonder if Giuliani will actually show up on Tucker Carlson's show. If so that's going to be 1 delusional, propaganda-filled segment. You'd think his lawyer would tell him to just shut up and not say anything to avoid further incriminating himself

tucker has a skyrocketing drug addiction. Just like limbaugh, he loves pain killers

That's why his behavior has become seriously erratic

Former Prosecutor Preet Bharara says Rudy's in deep doodoo:

For you techies, if the Feds are able to confiscate his electronics, are they able to open them without the passwords? Is he obligated to provide those passwords? If he backed up his data to the “cloud”, yet deleted it on his device, would information still be obtainable?

From the article posted at R188: "Bear in mind, they’re [the investigators] probably far along, given what showing they have to make of probable cause to do these searches in the first place. They likely already have a lot of Rudy Giuliani’s communications. You don’t need to have his devices in your possession to have email records; those are obtained from third parties, and they probably have all of that."

Sorry, that was from the article posted at R187.

I think Donnie's gonna deeply regret not issuing this one a pre-emptive pardon.

Maybe they figured he wouldn't need a pardon since his legal team would claim diminished mental capacity.

[quote]For you techies, if the Feds are able to confiscate his electronics, are they able to open them without the passwords? Is he obligated to provide those passwords? If he backed up his data to the “cloud”, yet deleted it on his device, would information still be obtainable?

Totally. The Feds have special digital forensic tools. Anything sitting on hard drives can be opened.

Some of the communication apps have good encryption on them, but I have my doubts that Rudy was that careful.

Every so often you'll read in an article that the Feds couldn't get into a device because they didn't have a password, but that seems rare.

Giuliani is the kind of guy who would text incriminating evidence to reporters on accident and leave voicemails detailing crimes to the wrong members of Congress. I'm certain he got rid of some evidence but probably not all, and probably not permanently.

Texting with Rudy: “This is a little bit like a baby with a hammer, or a monkey with a typewriter.”

(^That story is 2 years old, I see now.)

It might be from a couple of years ago but it's relevant, I think. It's not like Rudy got smarter over the last two years.

I’m sure the feds hire the same kind of people to crack into devices that people such as Ghouliani hire to scrub them. In this case, if Ghouliani did scrub his devices, it’ll depend how well. Besides, there’s always a history of what you’ve done that exists in other places besides your own devices.

This was the interview on Maddow Jan. 2020 when Lev Parnas lays out the conspiracy implicating all of them, Trump, Barr, Pompeo, Bolton, Perry

[quote]Besides, there’s always a history of what you’ve done that exists in other places besides your own devices.

IIRC, most of the text messages that Mueller had couldn't be unlocked because both sending and receiving parties were getting them encrypted.

Willing to bet money that's not the case with Rudy.

Rudy LOVES this country...It's like, like, it's like SO unfair!!!!:

Trump spoke Thursday after federal agents raided Giuliani's home Wednesday. The former president told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo: 'Rudy Giuliani is a great patriot. He just loves this country, and they raid his apartment'. 'It's like so unfair and...it's like a double standard like I don't think anybody's ever seen before. Rudy is a patriot who loves this country,' Trump added. -Daily Mail, Trump interviewed by "journalist (whore) Maria Bartiromo

It’s a double standard? Trump still Trumping.

Double standard to what exactly? that Cheeto couldn't find a way to lock Hillary up?

Fun fact: Maria Bartiromo is a mob boss daughter.

Well, that would certainly explain things, r204.

Burner phone? Sweet justice if RG is the key that eventually unlocks the cell door for tRUMP and then locks the door behind the Orange Criminal.

The feds may have been spurred to raid Rudy Giuliani’s Manhattan apartment and office based on a voicemail he left a former business associate’s lawyer in which he hinted at having a burner phone, according to a report.

Joseph Bondy, the attorney for ex-associate Lev Parnas, in December submitted a court motion that included the transcript of the voicemail the former New York City mayor left him in November 2019, Newsweek reported.

“Joe, it’s Rudy Giuliani,” the message starts, according to a transcript the mag said was made public last year.

“I’m calling, uh, to see if we can talk either about or with Lev. I have my lawyer with me, but you can call me back at [REDACTED]. That’s [REDACTED],” he reportedly says, adding: “That’s the soon to be gotten rid of number.”

A grand jury has been impaneled already (the source is Ghouliani's own attorney, so it's definitely reliable), which means specific charges are already being sought for indictment:

Joyce Vance says in order to get a search warrant, the FBI has to convince a judge that they expect to find incriminating evidence on his devices *now*, rather than old stuff he may or may not have deleted.

Not only that Rudy has Counsel who told him to start cleaning house some time ago. He isn't left just to his own devices.

[quote]'Rudy Giuliani is a great patriot. He just loves this country, and they raid his apartment'. 'It's like so unfair and...it's like a double standard like I don't think anybody's ever seen before. Rudy is a patriot who loves this country,' Trump added.

Oh, how I've missed his borderline-retarded inarticulateness.

^I've always felt he was more than a few feet inside that border, personally.

[quote]I wonder if Giuliani will actually show up on Tucker Carlson's show. If so that's going to be 1 delusional, propaganda-filled segment. You'd think his lawyer would tell him to just shut up and not say anything to avoid further incriminating himself

Maybe Rudy will decide to hold a press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping instead.

[quote]'Rudy is a patriot who loves this country,' Trump added.

So was Timothy McVeigh, in Timothy McVeigh's estimation.

Grand Jury appointments in May for Rudy's attorney's staff: Rudy isn't going to be saying SHIT in public for some time to come. He knows what's going on.

[quote]It's like so unfair and...it's like a double standard like I don't think anybody's ever seen before.

So articulate. He can only speak in absolutes. Everything is the best, the biggest, the worst, like no one has ever seen before.

You mean those double standards, Trump, like where rich people get off for committing crimes - the same crimes poorer people go to jail for?

Giuliani's lawyer responds:

"The Biden department of justice has completely ignored clear evidence (which the FBI has had for over a year) in texts and emails on Hunter Biden’s hard drive of failing to register numerous times as a foreign agent, child pornography, money laundering, and 30 years of the Biden Crime family taking millions and millions in bribes to sell his public offices.

Instead, the Justice Department decided it was a higher priority to serve (at dawn) search warrants for electronics at the home and law office of former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani."

Shorter version: "Look, a squirrel!"

Before I got to the end of the post above, a thought occurred to me: "Look over there at that BIG RABBIT!!!"

Giuliani, as expected, has hired a buffoon for an attorney. That statement is poorly written and filled with actionable lies.

(Rudy's also still facing Dominion's 1.3 Billion $$ defamation suit, containing the very same allegations which Sydney the Kraken Powell has already admitted, in Court and under oath, that there was NO FACTUAL BASIS FOR whatsoever. Rudy's Answer to that lawsuit has been delayed, as has the Kraken's, by their both having filed pointless Motions to Dismiss).

Trump and his cronies will be locked up soon.

Can the authorities bust Eric, Don Jr., Ivanka and Jared before the Russians bribe them to run for office?

[Quote]He'll plead mental incompetence because it's true.

The incompetence plea will come after an embarrassing in-court episode of incontinence.

Yeah, R217, and I like their non-existent “clear evidence”. When push came to shove, they conveniently “lost” Hunter’s laptop, but they continue to fuck the same chicken regarding what’s on the non-existent laptop.

Which will be the Dems fault.

I hope Trump offers Giuliani an "ex post facto" blanket pardon.

Why does he have red hair?

Judges and prosecutors hate search warrants on attorneys because the attorney-client privilege is considered almost sacred and fundamental to the functioning of the judicial system. It takes extreme circumstances to get one authorized.

Rudy Giuliani's Legal Problems Are Worse Than You Think

A couple of years ago, when asked if he feared Trump might eventually throw him under a bus, Rudy said he wasn’t worried because he had "insurance." Hmmmm.

When you lie down with dogs, you get fle... I mean RUDY.

When you lie down with Donald you get herpes.

Tee-hee

This is good...

No, he would not be obligated to provide passwords due to the 5th Amendment.

R208 posted something relevant. There's something called "staleness" with regard to a search warrant.

Jesus Christ, it really is sickening that an orange clown became president. It never ceases to amaze me how limited his vocabulary is and how he can only respond using hyperbole.

I heard a quick clip of that asshole commenting about this and he claims that what's going on "has never been done before." STFU, you idiot. People have had their god damned homes raided countless times. This is not some unprecedented event.

I want to vomit knowing that stupid turd squatted in the WH. Sickening. Stupid, stupid man.

Statement by Robert J. Costello on April 28, 2021

Rudolph Giuliani has authorized Robert J. Costello to release the following statement regarding the events on April 28, 2021:

The Biden department of justice has completely ignored clear evidence (which the FBI has had for over a year) in texts and emails on Hunter Biden’s hard drive of failing to register numerous times as a foreign agent, child pornography, money laundering, and 30 years of the Biden Crime family taking millions and millions in bribes to sell his public offices.

Instead, the Justice Department decided it was a higher priority to serve (at dawn) search warrants for electronics at the home and law office of former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

The search warrants involve only one indication of an alleged incident of failure to register as a foreign agent. Mayor Giuliani has not only denied this allegation, but offered twice in the past two years through his attorney Bob Costello to demonstrate that it is entirely untrue.  Twice the offer was rejected by the SDNY by stating that while they were willing to listen to anything Mr. Costello had to say, they would not tell Mr. Giuliani or Mr. Costello, the subject matter they wanted him to address.

This contrasts with multiple proven incidences of failure to file as a foreign agent contained on the Biden hard drive which the FBI and the Department of Justice has ignored. You have not seen the home of Hunter Biden raided by the FBI with search warrants.  This behavior of the justice department, enabled by a compliant media,  running roughshod over the constitutional rights of anyone involved in, or legally defending, former President Donald J. Trump is becoming the rule, rather than the exception.

It is also a clear example of a corrupt double standard. One for high-level democrats whose blatant crimes are ignored, such as Hilary Clinton, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, and Republicans who are prominent supporters and defenders of President Trump who, are subjected to false charges and procedures used in the past, if at all, in cases involving terrorists and organized criminals.

The electronics taken are, also, replete with the material covered by the attorney-client privilege and other constitutional privileges. The warrant served on Mr. Giuliani’s law office is another disturbing example of complete disregard for the attorney-client privilege protected by the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution.

Remember the newspaper reports that explained that twice before, the SDNY went to Main Justice to seek permission to obtain a search warrant for Mr. Giuliani’s electronic devices and twice before the request was rejected.  What changed?  A new Administration – a new Attorney General.  Were they ever informed of Mr. Costello’s offer?  Was the Judge who signed the search warrant ever informed of Mr. Costello’s offer?  We think not.

Twice, Mr. Giuliani’s counsel offered to sit with the SDNY and demonstrate that Mr. Giuliani’s conduct was lawful. It is outrageous that the Trump Derangement Syndrome has gone so far that hatred has driven this unjustified and unethical attack on the United States Attorney and Mayor who did more to reduce crime than virtually any other in American history. Mr. Giuliani respects the law,  and he can demonstrate that his conduct as a lawyer and a citizen was absolutely legal and ethical.

Of course, I’m sure you will not be surprised that the FBI left behind the only electronics that contain evidence of crimes, the Hunter Biden hard drives. Mayor Giuliani offered them on several occasions,  but the agents steadfastly declined.  Keep in mind that the agents could not read the physical hard drives without plugging them in, but they took Mr. Giuliani’s word that the hard drives were copies of Hunter Biden’s hard drive and did not contain anything pertaining to Mr. Giuliani.  Think about what that tells you. Their reliance on Mr. Giuliani’s credibility tells you everything you need to know about this case.

He will be fine

[quote]"Victoria Toensing" now trending on twitter haha isn't it interesting how so many Fox favorites are going down the drain

Seems Faux "News" tried to distance itself from Toensing early. I love that this shit is coming to their door.

If Giuliani's defense is the house of straw built upon the sand of deranged Q-fueled conspiracy theory as outlined in R245, he is going to prison for a long time. In fact, he likely will die in there.

[quote]No, he would not be obligated to provide passwords due to the 5th Amendment.

Funny how all these assholes who fueled the January 6 attacks now wanna cling to their "Constitutional rights".

I'm sure "BUT WHAT ABOUT HUNTER BIDEN???" will be a winning defense in court.

Hey, Rudy will be fine, Matt Gaetz has his back...

Hahahahaha!

Didn't this idiot -more than once- leave a message for the wrong senator when he was doing his rounds to spread the lie?

They're absolutely going to find incriminating info on this fool's devices. He doesn't even understand how "contacts" works

As far as the Ukrainian charges are concerned, Rudy is fucked, thanks in large part to former Ukrainian associate Andrii Artemenko. Even Erik Prince's name has come up. This case is HUGE in scope.

Eric Prince is evil scum of the earth. I'd honestly prefer he went to prison for life before even Rudy or Trump.

These buffoons are laughable with their predictable Hunter Biden smokescreen. What’s sadder is that deplorables believe this nonsense.

What's really sad and funny is that those deplorable dummies are sending these grifting shits millions of dollars based on lie after lie after lie.

That too, R271.

Is that kid in the gif at R21 a Trumper?

Fox News rakes in millions off lies. Their bread and butter.

I hope Hannity gets what’s coming to him some way some how.

I’m sure Jared, et al have scrubbed everything and will be harder or impossible to get.

$200k is nice but worth potentially going to jail for? I find it hard to believe as a lawyer he really believed his drive to overturn democracy would work but I may be giving him too much credit. I think he just went batshit.

Did anyone watch Michael Daly on Chris Hayes' show? He was awesome talking about Rudy.

One of the gems: He didn't understand why Rudy was against parole because without it, he wouldn't be here. Rudy was conceived when his conman dad was out on parole.

Conman dad? That is interesting. I'm one of those people who thinks that we're pretty much all who we are due to genes.

But these sorts of people never think they are going to jail and so far they have been right. It's the arrogance that's their greatest enemy, but hopefully boon to the prosecution. A person who worked with him was on CNN and she talked about how he always had a couple of phones banging around in his pocket at the same time and one would always activate Siri on the other. And he would complain about how Siri never listened to him. The FBI will probably have no trouble finding what they're looking for. At least I hope.

Arrogance will probably, hopefully take Stone down too as Trump is no longer in a position to pardon him again.

[quote] $200k is nice but worth potentially going to jail for? I find it hard to believe as a lawyer he really believed his drive to overturn democracy would work but I may be giving him too much credit. I think he just went batshit.

Have to mention Michael Daly again as he covered Rudy for a long time. He said Rudy is not dumb, he's nuts.

He even mentioned Rudy being caught necking with his girlfriend (when he was cheating on Donna), I nearly vomited at the visual.

^ That's one genetic quagmire. Ginger Italians are rare... for a reason

Lock him up!

Is Andrew the product of Giuliani’s marriage to his cousin? His chromosomes look a bit off.

Here he is as a kid, Yikes!

He looks like the proverbial redheaded stepchild.

SNL even did a skit based on him...

What would we do without Randy Rainbow to sort it all out for us...

Can you imagine the fucker in an orange jump suit in Rikers?

I think both the kids are from second wife Donna Hanover. To be fair to him about the first wife, Sicilians are encouraged to marry within their extended families and she was a second cousin, not a first.

This is complete speculation on my part, but I’ve always wondered (and I believe I am not alone) if he got himself entangled in the Russian mob when he was destroying the Italian mob. You know the enemy of my enemy is my friend and soon to become my blackmailer type of situation.

The FBI warned Rudolph W. Giuliani in late 2019 that he was the target of a Russian influence operation aimed at circulating falsehoods intended to damage President Biden politically ahead of last year’s election, according to people familiar with the matter.

The warning was part of an extensive effort by the bureau to alert members of Congress and at least one conservative media outlet, One America News, that they faced a risk of being used to further Russia’s attempt to influence the election’s outcome, said several current and former U.S. officials. All spoke on the condition of anonymity because the matter remains highly sensitive.

...

The warning, made by counterintelligence agents, was separate from the Justice Department’s ongoing criminal probe, but it reflects a broader concern by U.S. intelligence and federal investigators that Giuliani — among other influential Americans and U.S. institutions — was being manipulated by the Russian government to promote its interests and that he appears to have brazenly disregarded such fears.

Despite the alert, Giuliani went forward in December 2019 with a planned trip to Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, where he met with a Ukrainian lawmaker who the U.S. government later labeled “an active Russian agent” and sanctioned on grounds he was running an “influence campaign” against Biden. That operation, officials said, involved Ukrainian officials and political consultants who the U.S. intelligence community has since concluded were acting as Russian proxies not only to smear Biden and derail his candidacy but to curtail U.S. support for Ukraine.

[quote]Can you imagine the fucker in an orange jump suit in Rikers?

I can, r297. Gleefully.

[quote] He just went crazy for some weird reason.

[quote] I think he just went batshit.

As a NYer, I guarantee it wasn’t sudden onset. He always was batshit, but as he aged, even worse.

Lolz

There is a post-raid statement on an online news page this morning from Giuliani: his "defense" is that the FBI "would not take" the Hunter Biden hard-drive from him, and that the Bidens have been corrupt for the past 30 years...Sounds like he's going to prison, to me.

Okay, if Russia had some kind of kompromat on Rudy that could be another explanation, for sure.

Or maybe he thought, they wanna use me and spy on me, maybe I could do the same to them....

That's how crazy he is

[quote]This is complete speculation on my part, but I’ve always wondered (and I believe I am not alone) if he got himself entangled in the Russian mob when he was destroying the Italian mob. You know the enemy of my enemy is my friend and soon to become my blackmailer type of situation.

Precisely what happened. Shutting down the Italian mob families in the 80's-90's in NY paved the way for the Russian mob to take over. How actively Rudy participated isn't entirely clear yet.

(that is to say, Rudy was quite instrumental in shutting down the Italian mob families in NY. How deep he got tied up with the Russian mob in doing so isn't clear.)

Wow, Cronkite at r303!

Rudy Interview Off the Rails, Calls Tucker Carlson "Hunter"

Poor, poor Ruby Julie.

I don't know Rudy. I think I met him once for some photos. Maybe he brought me some coffee once.

He knows exactly how the DOJ operates. He's known for decades from his own experience ***in that particular USAO, no less*** and he knows that it started under Barr, so he can't claim partisanship.

This is him publicly acting out for support, but knowing personally that he is full of absolute shit. Same with the "fraud" claims. He'd hold his pathetic press conf. screaming about fraud and then go into court and saying it wasn't about fraud. because he wasn't stupid enough to perjure himself.

[quote]Calls Tucker Carlson "Hunter"

I thought this was a joke. It wasn't a joke!

That freeze frame at R312 is pure gold!

Tucker looks even more mentally retarded and Rudy even more mental.

I thought he was a waiter at the WH.

New details emerge about investigation into Giuliani

[quote]That freeze frame at R312 is pure gold! Tucker looks even more mentally retarded and Rudy even more mental.

Tucker has that same look in every freeze frame I see from his show. He looks as though someone is trying to explain long division to him.

Can you imagine if that doughy douchebag actually got his dream of being in the CIA? He's already an arrogant turd and he was rejected by the CIA. So his hate for the intelligence community is personal. Fucking low-life.

[quote] He looks as though someone is trying to explain long division to him.

Fucking hilarious! Thank you, r320!

Very embarrassed to say I find TC fratboy hot 🥵

Ghouliani comes from petty criminal mobster stock. His father served time in Sing Sing. He is a bit like the Gordon Liddy of the Trump administration.

I really hope that he does have dirt on Trump that he'll give up, just like he's hinted before.

Ghoulie is utterly stomach-churning, but I will always really want to see Trump locked up.

Yes, I realize that's probably an unrealistic wish. But Ghoulie did make that indirect threat/hint in that one interview.

RG will definitely not go to jail for djt.

[quote]RG will definitely not go to jail for djt.

And definitely vice-versa.

I suspect it's about to get really crowded under that bus.

Yeah, a short bus,

I don't know how he does it but nothing seems to touch Trump. He's like Teflon. I feel like he'll never go to jail.

The clip art R312 is difficult to get through because the podcast host keeps interrupting the Fox interview. Here's the link to the interview itself, no interruptions.

Also, Rudy raised a good point. He said he had three hard drives "with Hunter Biden's laptop info" that Rudy tried to give to an FBI agent, but the agent wouldn't take the drives into evidence. WHY NOT?? These drives clearly fell under the purview of the subpoena, regardless of the data written on them. As Rudy said, the agent took Rudy's word regarding the information contained in the drives. But he could've been lying and they could've contained info related to the Ukraine investigation. Why on earth didn't the agent seize these three hard drives?! This seems to have been a major blunder.

^ * The clip at...

:::breezes in, caftan fluttering in the wind:::

I’m pressed for time. Can I get the [italic]quick[/italic] scoop?

How bad has it gotten? Will I be pleased?

^ In summary: Rudy's in deep shit.

And you dropped your canklet, ma'am.

R333 😂

I appreciate a great sense of humor. 😘

R320, that was funny. But I doubt that Tucker knows anything about long division, since he doesn’t want anyone’s brain to be compromised by higher education.

R330, you dope, Rudy is lying. The FBI took every drive they found, Rudy just wants you to think that the investigation is biased so he made up a story about three hard drives.

Yeah, I was thinking, why are we trusting what Ghouliani says? Ghouliani lies all the time.

Because you were there, R337? Otherwise, eat shit, fuckwad.

The Q nut jobs are saying Ghouliani is just a distraction from ‘Arizona and the traitor John Kerry.’ I’m not even sure what that means.

[quote]Because you were there, R337? Otherwise, eat shit, fuckwad.

Hey, I get it, you're embarrassed because you believed Rudy's obvious lie, and said he "made a good point" when what he really did was "lie in a crazy rant on Tucker Carlson where he got so disoriented he called Tucker 'Hunter'."

Still, if you're truly committed to being a full-blown moron on Datalounge, you should probably develop a thicker skin.

R335 Back at ya 😘

[quote]Yeah, I was thinking, why are we trusting what Ghouliani says? Ghouliani lies all the time.

He also said he was never briefed by the FBI on Ukraine, and also that the FBI, while collecting computers and hard drives for their investigation, first didn't know what the hard drives even were (asking him "what are they?") and then just blindly took his claim that three hard drives were "Hunter Biden's data" and said nah, man, we don't need it. Neither claim passes the smell test.

Remember, he's been saying for months now that the FBI already had Hunter Biden's laptop data, that he turned it over to Delaware authorities who in turn gave it to the FBI, so even if his incredible story were true, would they need those drives? According to Rudy, they had all that info anyway.

@ r320, "Tucker has that same look in every freeze frame I see from his show. He looks as though someone is trying to explain long division to him. "

Someone on Twitter said is was the same look he had on his wedding night when his wife tried to explain how a vagina works.

@r337, "[R330], you dope, Rudy is lying."

Amazing how many people think that NOW is the moment Rudy chose to tell the truth about anything. Rudy previously said he had turned the hard drives over to Delaware officials last fall. How did he get them back?

He’s gonna fry and I’m gonna watch him sizzle.

R341, I've seen your other DL posts, and I get that you're committed to being an annoying abrasive cunt. Go find another snow-related murder-suicide to swallow you up. In the meantime, I'll be hoping that someone who crosses your path punches your teeth in someday. 🙂

You apparently haven't since I haven't posted on those for months, but it's been your go-to troll lately to pretend like you know how to use the ignore trick when you don't.

But this explains a lot: you're one of the weird frauen from the murder threads who came up with those bizarre, homophobic theories and got embarrassed when people like me would point out your lies and stupidity. I hadn't thought about the murder thread in weeks, and here you are, following me around Datalounge because of it, threatening me because of a grudge over your weird homophobic murder-suicide fantasies.

That is so fucking pathetic. And your little sockpuppet cheering you on in this thread, calling you the funniest person on DL, is INCREDIBLY obvious.

You are so bad at this.

^ LOL! Aaaand you're a delusional paranoid loon who's completely off her fucking rocker.

I win.

[quote]Amazing how many people think that NOW is the moment Rudy chose to tell the truth about anything. Rudy previously said he had turned the hard drives over to Delaware officials last fall. How did he get them back?

Exactly, there is no version of this story that makes him look like he's telling the truth.

If these hard drives have data on them that he didn't turn over to the authorities, then he has been lying to the public and the authorities for months about turning the information over.

If these hard drives are just copies, then the FBI doesn't need them, they have the data anyway.

And what are the odds that the FBI agents who raided his house are so incompetent they'd say, "Gosh, what are those things? Hard drives? With Hunter Biden's incriminating data on it? No, golly gee whiz, Rudy, we can't take those, because we are part of a conspiracy to protect Hunter Biden and persecute you, even though we know you're an innocent patriot."

It's ridiculous.

[quote]Go find another snow-related murder-suicide to swallow you up.

Oh, honey, you really botched this. I'm not on the murder-suicide in PA threads past about part 3 or 4 because they got crazy and homophobic, but your sockpuppet/cheerleader at R347 et al., the person who keeps saying how awesome and funny you are, is ALL OVER them, like the one I'm linking to.

Did you screw up and ignore-dar the wrong person? Did you just accidentally insult your only fan and/or your own sockpuppet account?

Anyhow, you're an idiot who blindly believed an obvious lie from Rudy "Crazypants" Guiliani, and you don't know how to ignore-dar but are too stupid to realize you're bad at it, and you're so delicate that you made physical threats because you were called -- and I quote -- a "dope."

Putting both of you nutty kids on ignore now, but a small bit of advice, r349: if someone on DL calls you a "fat whore," don't go shooting up a shopping mall about it.

R351 Bitch, do [italic]not[/italic] drag me into your shitty mess. I know neither of you. I didn’t even cheer him on as much as note his cuntery so early in the a.m. (at least from where I am at the moment) and made a crack about it.

^ Nutjob. 😂

Oops. Sorry, R352. The "nutjob" comment obviously was meant for the nutjob at R351... and everywhere else she has defecated thus far. 😂

I can't link to it because it's CNN, but apparently Trump and his pals are getting worried!

[quote]According to the Trump adviser, the raid ignited a sense of fear inside the former President's orbit that Justice Department officials may be more willing to pursue investigations of the 45th president or his inner circle than many Trump allies had previously believed. Two other people close to the former President, who echoed these sentiments, declined to be quoted for this story.

[quote]R351 Bitch, do [italic] not[/italic] drag me into your shitty mess.

[quote]fear inside the former President's orbit

Odd that 45's inner orbit is feeling fear when their cult leader is so proud of claiming 'complete exoneration.' He is, we're given to understand, the victim of 'The biggest witch-hunt in American history.' Surely Trump and his people can't live in fear that he qualifies as a genuine witch after all.

Makes me wonder if the somewhat sane (relatively speaking) people around him are worried while Trump himself is so loco that he doesn't realize he should be scared.

Love this...

This was recorded 2 nights ago at Mara-Lardo. Trump crashed a party there to spew his same old rhetoric. He's totally lost it...

[quote]Makes me wonder if the somewhat sane (relatively speaking) people around him

Is anyone able to name one of these relatively sane people?

Hicks doesn't seem insane, just a grifting ho.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while and Trump found his nut in Ghouliani.

Trump's idiocy cannot be measured. He is lower than a snake's instep and his stupid, duped followers, satiating in their bigotry and fears, refused to see what was obvious to an astronaut then in orbit: that the likes of Trump had no business being within 100 miles of the WH Oval Office.

But, one thing Trump did get right. He knew Biden could beat him like a drum in the election to be the POTUS. The proof that he knew it was that the idiot picked up the phone and, basically, as the US President, committed disloyalty, if not treason, to his country by asking Ukraine to illegally interfere in an American election by method of Ukraine digging up non-existent dirt (a farcical element that truly provides the punch-line here) against a fellow American.

How's that for Trump being a "tough guy"? Waaahh, help me Ukraine!

Of course, r337 is right. Ghouliani wouldn't utter the truth if his hair-dye was on fire.

I've seen, up close, the FBI execute a search warrant. It's a truly scary, immobilizing, and yes, from a certain, albeit negative, perspective, an impressive sight.

While I'm sure the agents executing the warrant were polite to him, it's preposterous that the FBI would entertain any request of the person whose items they are seizing to expand or limit the scope of the described items the judge allowed under the search warrant.

That Ghouliani believes his and Trump's moronic supporters would swallow his bullshit is a measure of what low regard; what contempt they have for Trump supporters, Fox "News" watchers and that ilk.

Rupert Murdoch doesn't give a shit about conservatism. He's got his billions. The joke is on the audience of his fantastical, fear-based propaganda. MAGA- Many A Gullible American

[quote] Amazing how many people think that NOW is the moment Rudy chose to tell the truth about anything.

These rightwing trolls don’t believe him. They’re here to peddle the lies.

Don't know if R346 is a rightwing troll or not but R348 was right, I was active in those threads R346 was insulting him about. Since I had them in my sidebar already, I went down the rabbit-hole, and R346 WAS posting in the Murder/Suicide In Pa threads himself, he's in Part 3 and 4 despite acting like only crazy people posted in those threads.

It's weird that someone would defend Rudy Giuliani and when they get dunked on for it, bring up the Murder/Sucide in PA threads out of the blue, they're completely unrelated. I guess maybe that speaks to him being a troll though.

R360 - yes, he's one chromosome away from being a potato*! And to think there are those who believe this pitiful example of a human being is going to run for president in 2024! He is fading fast and with all the pressure from the investigations and lawsuits I doubt he could run a 10 yard dash.

I know someone who is still getting emails from Team Trump trying to get money. "Help fund Trump's Border visit". As if fat ass Lump is going to leave Florida.

In one of the Colton Underwood threads, the poster here at R346 posts about the "Klan Grannies" there.

Is R346 here Matthew Anscher, the originator of the Klan Grannies term?

He even looks completely gone physically at r360, doesn't move much and he's suddenly a weirder shape than usual, or maybe they put huge shoulder pads in his suit.

Credit for that quote SHOULD go to the scriptwriter who penned it.

Everyone knows Hunter Biden's hard drives were lost on their way from California to Tucker Carlson, and everyone is pretty sure FedEx is in on the disappearance.

[quote]he's one chromosome away from being a potato

A potus maybe, but a potato never. We don't want him.

What ever happened to the man who supposedly ran the computer store in Delaware where Hunter Biden supposedly dropped off the laptop for repairs? Disappeared, much like the migrant caravans Fox tries to show right before every election now.

MAGA- Many A Gullible American (stolen from R363)

Mac Isaac has taken to suing people lately, the most recent being Twitter, but there's an article behind a paywall from last week that makes it sound like he's now trying to get his suit against Twitter dismissed.

[quote]"Help fund Trump's Border visit".

Seriously? Who in the hell gets this and still doesn't come to the realization that Trump thinks they're an idiot?

You'd think they'd question why a supposed billionaire was on a non-stop loop of asking them for money.

Exactly, R377

She doesn't give them money. Even she thinks it needs to stop already. I'd be surprised if anyone is still giving money but the feds need to investigate.

[quote]He looks as though someone is trying to explain long division to him.

John Oliver described Tucker's look on his show as "attempting to explain Bitcoin to a Medieval farmer".

Girls, girls, you’re both tedious cunts with an ego-driven need to make sure everyone gets your special point. Could we get back on topuc now?

As one of the cunts, R381, may I suggest you look at timestamps? The dust-up was five hours ago. We've been on 'topuc" for a long time now.

R366: Hon, you're almost as retarded as R369. R346 has never been on "Parts 3 and 4" of the PA snow case. R348, however, was. Nice try, Boris.

Giuliani hiring Dershowitz is just fucking LOL it's going to get even crazier
