Disgraced former mayor, lawyer and lackey Rudy Giuliani drove to his polling place this Election Day within the Mercedes-Benz 500SL previously owned by actress Lauren Bacall. It’s the exact same automotive he was alleged to have turned over as damages to the Georgia election staff he grievously wronged, however as an alternative he hid the automotive someplace in Florida.
We’ve stored a detailed eye on the story of Bacall’s R107 Benz, as a result of with a man like Rudy Giuliani it was sure to get bizarre. And peculiar it received. Rudy was driving shotgun when he pulled up within the Benz to a polling place in Palm Seashore, Florida, Tuesday afternoon. It’s the identical Mercedes that Choose Liman ordered Giuliani flip over to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, who needed to flee their properties and suffered harassment following Giuliani repeatedly and publicly defaming the election staff.
Giuliani additionally needed to hand over a lot of his New York possessions, in addition to his high-rise Manhattan residence, as a way to met the $148 million settlement with Freeman and Moss. Nonetheless, when the ladies took possession of the $5 million residence, they discovered it striped naked of something helpful.
Freeman and Moss are clearly not taking this mendacity down and Giuliani can be in entrance of a choose over the matter this week. From the Guardian:
Giuliani, carrying a New York hearth division hat and stars-and-stripes shirt, was pictured arriving on the polling web site in Palm Seashore on Tuesday within the passenger seat of the Mercedes SL500. He spoke to reporters however had no remark concerning the settlement.
Caruso, in a court docket submitting final week, denied Giuliani was being obstructive. “[He] is, and can stay, able to comply” with Liman’s order, Caruso mentioned – however claimed that Giuliani, who filed for chapter final yr, had not obtained details about ship it, the Hill reported.
Nathan mentioned that declare was “deceptive”.
Giuliani’s spokesperson Ted Goodman, in the meantime, informed the Hill in a press release that he “has made obtainable his property and possessions as ordered” and that he had put a “few objects” into storage over the previous yr.
The rest that was eliminated was associated to Giuliani’s nightly livestreams, Goodman claimed, asserting it was due to this fact exterior the settlement. A separate lawsuit over Giuliani’s Palm Seashore residence is ongoing.
“Opposing counsel, performing both negligently or intentionally in a misleading method, are merely making an attempt to additional bully and intimidate mayor Giuliani till he’s rendered penniless and homeless,” Goodman mentioned.
“That is simply one other means that they’ve weaponized our once-sacred justice system. It ought to concern every American.”
Ah, the celebration of non-public duty. Giuliani defamed Freeman and Moss throughout his feverish seek for dishonest in the course of the 2020 election. The civically minded mother-daughter duo have been accused by Giuliani of tampering with votes, resulting in Trump’s election loss.
Displaying as much as vote for (we are able to safely assume) the identical man that you just attacked harmless folks for, within the automotive he was supposed to show over to these harmless folks, is only a significantly petty fuck you from Giuliani.
