'No regrets': Giuliani makes bizarre link between defamation trial and Japanese internment
Raw StoryFormer President Donald Trump's ally Rudy Giuliani is in a dire financial situation as he faces being stripped of his assets to pay a $148 million defamation judgment to Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. He went on to say that his legal situation is like “the Japanese internment during the second war.” Giuliani, a former federal prosecutor and mayor of New York City, falsely claimed that Freeman and Moss were working to stuff ballots in Atlanta, at one point suggesting one passed the other a USB drive full of fake ballots, which turned out to just be a ginger mint. He initially tried to shield his assets from the judgment using bankruptcy protection, but a federal judge shut down those proceedings, citing Giuliani's refusal to make proper financial disclosures or meet various deadlines. In addition to all of that, Giuliani faces criminal charges in the Georgia election racketeering case, currently on hold as state courts review the defendants' ethics complaints against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis; and he has also had his law license in the State of New York revoked.
