Rudy Giuliani, former New York City mayor and attorney for Donald Trump, claims he is financially destitute after his checking account was seized as part of a $148 million defamation lawsuit.
The lawsuit was filed by two Georgia election workers who were falsely accused by Giuliani of tampering with the 2020 election results. Giuliani has missed deadlines to hand over assets and now alleges that he is unable to afford basic necessities like food.
This legal battle is part of a broader fallout from efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

Maybe if the justice system wasn't so biased, people like Giuliani wouldn't be targeted for standing up for election integrity.

Looks like Giuliani is finally facing some accountability for all the lies he spread about the election. It's hard to feel too bad for someone who played such a big role in undermining democracy.
Sounds like Giuliani is learning the hard way that defamation and dishonesty come with a price—maybe if the government didn’t tax the hell out of everyone, he’d have more cash to pay off his lawsuits. Personal responsibility applies to everyone, especially politicians.
