Keep turning the screws to them. You reap what you sow.

He’ll get through this. Just a little longer and then we the harassment will stop.

Walls are closing in.

We keep hearing this.

bombshell!
political earthquake!
actually, nonsense.
I am glad that Graham has to testify and be involved in/annoyed by this.
That way next time he is on CNN he wont be taking the liberal side as he usually does.

Rudy, yelling fraud in public but admitting before a judge while under oath that "this is not fraud case"....and he continues with The Big Lie to this day....
https://time.com/5914377/donald-trump-no-evidence-fraud/
Rudy has become the ultimate MAGA-joke...holding press conferences in lumber yards, melting down on live TV, getting caught in bedrooms with supposedly 15 year old girls...
And we can't forget he's still under investigation for campaign finance violations that have already resulted in convictions and jail for his two pro-Russian Ukrainian business partners...
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ex-giuliani-associate-be-sentenced-campaign-finance-violations-2022-06-29/
Time for Rudy to do a Michael Cohen and just fess up to all the criminality...he's already admitted he has kept an "insurance policy"....

The walls are closing in on Trump and his sidekick Giuliani.
bass4funk
Sure they are.
plasticmonkey
What’s Gym Jordan gonna do to stop an investigation in Georgia? Besides, I thought the GOP was the party of law and order. Or does that not apply when the mob boss Don and his henchmen are implicated?
plasticmonkey
Graham is a total fraud. He’ll do anything for power. Remember what he said right after the insurrection?
Bob Fosse
It isn’t harrassment.
It’s investigating attempted election fraud. You made hundreds of posts previously telling us how supportive you were of investigating election fraud. All that time, effort and theorizing.
When the shoe is on the other foot and Republicans are now being investigated you lost interest. Why is that?
bass4funk
It’s Jim, you misspelled the guys name.
Lol, I don’t know what that means, but remember when Stacy Abram’s contested the Georgia elections and called them racist as well? So in other words, Dems can contest any elections under any circumstances and the right can’t. Interesting….
bass4funk
Not only him given the current climate in politics and watching this administration, I would say the thirst for wanting to hold onto power doesn’t just rest with Lindsey.

G&T hoping Mexico pays for the walls.

Out of all the people who colluded with donald and are in deep trouble, Rudy is the one who came out much much worse.
donald didn’t pay him for acting as his lawyer nor contributed to his legal fees and now rudy is unable to pay his ex wife and is being sued by her, his Florida properties are up for sale and it’s only a matter of time that he loses his Manhattan apartment.
All that for man who will soon go to prison for treason.
What a fall!!!
bass4funk
The left keep saying this.
There is no way for you or me to know this. This an alleged allegation that the left continues to perpetuate without a shred of proof.
Yes, makes sense, when you are being sued into oblivion by the Fed government and use all of your liquid assets to by your personal legal fees to keep your head above water.
No one is going to prison because that is indeed the tactic that the Feds often use, make you spend all of your life earnings and savings on legal fees and then when you’re financially ruined, then the dogs are called off. Typical and the usual Fed tactic.
plasticmonkey
I don’t remember Stacy Abrams pressuring the Georgia SOS to “find” extra votes to put her over the top. Which Trump did. It was recorded, and no amount of whataboutism will change that.
wallace
Last year Trump refused to pay his lawyer Giuliani.
As Rudy Giuliani's legal bills mount up in the face of a federal investigation and defamation suits, people close to him say that Trump should be helping ...
Trump also requested donations.

bass4funk
No, but she contested it to the end, claimed that the institution is racist. In the US you are allowed to have any nutty option you want. You don’t harass any political person or civilian because you don’t like how or what they think.
whataboutism-aka: Dem caught hypocrisy.
No worries
ulysses
The facts say that, but to the right wing extremists facts are not facts.
I know it, those who choose to live in ignorance are making their choices
I am glad you agree, poor poor rudy!
donald is, and so is rudy. But different prisons, there are special ones for people convicted of treason!!!
bass4funk
Alleged.
Maybe he did. Who cares and why would the sick left media focus on something that petty? Just as sick as the media that wonder what flavor ice cream Biden likes, give me a break!
ulysses
Its difficult to believe rudy was a lawyer once.
He has to be the dumbest lawyer ever to not know that his travel will be monitored!!!
ulysses
It’s not petty to rudy, he is losing his house, has no savings and the bitter ex wife wants to send him to prison.
bass4funk
Naw, we’re it not for him, the mafia would probably be the next strongest and most lethal force out there to contend with next alongside the Federal government.
No, he was the only Mayer that made NYC a decent and livable city, can’t say that anymore
Sad, but a typical tactic the Feds use, if they can’t put you in prison on bogus charges the next step is to bankrupt you.
wallace
Is "Mayer" a special title? While he was Mayer, NY was attacked by the worse terrorist attack in US history.
ulysses
Comparing the fed government to the mafia, that’s the depths the right has fallen to.
I don’t know Mr Mayer, but Rudy was known as the Mayor. He did well after 9/11 but other than that not really much.
The feds actually have good advice for that, don't commit crimes!
Pity rudy never took the advise!!!
bass4funk
And was able to unite the city like never before as well.
bass4funk
Sad, but that’s where this countries at. But I do remember when 2006 the Dems felt the same about the Feds and deeply so.
He did well during. The corrupt police, 42nd street, muggings, homicide, graffiti on trains, dismantling the mafia, you could actually walk the streets of NYC from 1994-2001 with little angst.
Unless your a liberal then all bets are off.
ulysses
Sadly that’s where the brainwashed right wing extremists are at, the country is doing fine!
Umm no, rudy took credit but did little. Looking at him neck deep in corruption and treason, it’s easier to believe what people said about him.
The right wing extremists are whining that they cannot commit crimes anymore. Hilarious.
agondocz
Perhaps Mr Giuliani should have heeded The Specials: A Message To You Rudy.
bass4funk
Not according to 77% of the nation, if the country is doing well, then the Dems would be winning primaries like crazy and they're not, not even a little.
Not according to historians and the city, it was Giuliani and later Bloomberg and after that, DeBlasio took the country back to pre-1994 fast forward, sane people can't leave NYC fast enough.
No—his great destiny was to be mayor, and mayor only. And I might even say: at that moment only, when the city needed someone like him. Remember how often people talked in 1992 and 1993 about giving up on the place. Within one short year, or even less, people weren’t saying that very much anymore. For all the Rudy- craziness that later ensued and that darkened his legacy—the bashing of police-shooting victims and Brooklyn Museum artists and ferret lovers and his second ex-wife and of course Hillary—it has to be acknowledged that he was the man for the moment. There probably won’t be a moment in New York quite that desperate again in our lifetimes. He helped make sure of it.
If you want to listen to the left bloodlust-obsessed crowd, perhaps.
No, they are jubilant with joy and excitement because we know that November will usher in a brand new and sane era.

Giuliani, Stone, Bannon, Trump, etc. . . . It’s like ‘Whack-a-Whacko’. Instead of taking the 5th all the time or saying, “Well, it was on Facebook, so I thought it must be true.” They should just all plead insanity, because they’re a gang of lying wing-nuts.
Blacklabel
Yeah I wonder if the FBI/DOJ lied about stealing Rudy's passport too but then had to return it?
bass4funk
So they should just roll over and give the government whatever and however, they want and then let the government do to them whatever they want because it makes the left feel better? Yeah, ok...
Bob Fosse
I can’t wait for December. The excuses will be very amusing.
Bob Fosse
Lol. That article is 15 years old. Lot happened since then you know.
bass4funk
Well, when minority leader Pelosi tries to explain it, she will do so in an empty room.
Blacklabel
so when Repubs are in charge again after Nov and Dems are begging for tolerance again? But this time being denied tolerance because of all the things they did? you cant wait for that? well neither can I.
“Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.”
starpunk
Stop your messing around, better think of your future. Like picking out a top bunk or a lower one.
Blacklabel
and to think just a few hours ago liberals were saying Trump is going to prison because his passports were seized. Hes gonna flee to Russia!!
then it was Trump was lying and the FBI/DOJ didnt really have them.
then they had them earlier but returned them already, so didnt technically "have" them.
this is the nonsense we are dealing with.
painkiller
Prosecutors in Atlanta on Monday told lawyers for Rudy Giuliani that he’s a target of their criminal investigation into possible illegal attempts by then-President Donald Trump and others to interfere in the 2020 general election in Georgia.
No news here. This type of political persecution is typical. In Russia.
bass4funk
Ska songs and humor won't help or push this jihad against Rudy with hopes of locking him up.
SuperLib
Just lock that loser up and be done with it.
Blacklabel
fortunately, justice doesnt work that way.
yet. good thing an election will come before it does.
ulysses
Are you saying reps are winning democrats primaries? 'Like Crazy' is the only accurate part of the sentence.
Not really, though the right wing extremists do have an alternate history!!!
You should listen less to the bigoted murderous right wing extremists , might open up your mind.
When Nov turns out to be a big disappointment for the GOP because their leader couldn't help himself from committing treason, it will be fun.
bass4funk
No, the Dems are losing theirs
That a boy and women do exist? That social economic government dependency has destroyed the black communities? That you need fossil fuels to create renewable energy? Or that funding pushing for more police and supporting them reduces crime? Yeah, just horrible history...
Not compared to the liberal policies that have done a lot worse, just check the polls.
It won't, there is not a single poll that states this, not one.

He used to be a high school wrestling coach. I think the spelling is intentional.

Lots of defense for Giuliani here - so please explain these to us...
As this article outlines, Rudy was one of the first to support Trump's Big Lie that Trump won the election and that there was "massive fraud".....
So why did he admit before a judge when under oath and could be cited for perjury and contempt, that "This is not a fraud case"?
https://time.com/5914377/donald-trump-no-evidence-fraud/
And why did he admit before the Repub Arizona Speaker that "'We've got lots of theories, we just don't have the evidence"?
https://www.businessinsider.com/rudy-giuliani-voter-fraud-evidence-rusty-bowers-testimony-jan6-committee-2022-6
In addition, why was Giuliani in business with a pro-Russian Ukrainian - who has been tried, convicted and sentenced to jail for campaign finance violations - to include funneling money from Russia?
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ex-giuliani-associate-be-sentenced-campaign-finance-violations-2022-06-29/
Explain those to us....
Bob Fosse
Yaaaawn. Ask ‘the left’ I guess.
bass4funk
Should never be disrespectful towards other people and refrain from mocking them. If any conservative did that about any leftist political leader the Mods wouldn't tolerate it, so that standard should be applied to every and all politicians whether you agree with them or not, like them or not.
takeda.shingen.1991@gmail.com
No. Trump mocked disabled folks and his based lapped it up. For four years, Trump proved what a nasty person he was. He mocked critics, and he fan base loved it.
They're just mad now, because they've got glass jaws and can't take it as good as they give it.

The reality is, virtually every demographic group of people in the US lived under the best economic situation in history. Blacks, hispanics, Native and indigenous Americans, Asian Americans, females, and on and on.
bass4funk
No, the left is trying to drown him and now it seems they once again overplanned and overplayed their hand.
The Dems mock Trump as well as the average voter.
And the Americans have seen how nasty this admin as well as the DOJ is.
No difference from the left loving it when the Fed and their acolytes stick it to Trump and his circle.
Let's have the same conversation after November about glass jaws and who's cracked.
bass4funk
I think the Feds have to first escape the hole they have dug for themselves.
plasticmonkey
Well, in your own words, “fortunately justice doesn’t work that way”. You can’t build a legal case based on conspiracy theories.
I remember very clearly you regularly referring to Adam Schiff as a “pencil neck” and “Schitt”. So let’s stop the faux outrage please.
lincolnman
Lots of deflection....but no answers....come on Trump supporters, explain these to us...
plasticmonkey
Your attacks on the integrity of the FBI are unwarranted and dangerous. You have no evidence of corruption or illegal tactics. These people are now getting death threats, you know?
