Donald Trump's former attorney Rudy Giuliani files for bankruptcy after being ordered to pay Georgia poll workers Ruby Freeman and Shay Moss $148 million...
From CBS News
Former New York City mayor and Donald Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani filed for bankruptcy Thursday, according to a court filing.
Giuliani filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy less than a week after a jury ordered him to pay $146 million in damages to Fulton County election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, who sued him for defamation. He estimates his liabilities are between about $100 million and $500 million. The damage award was originally set at $148 million, but the federal judge presiding over the case later reduced it to $145,969,000.
"This maneuver is unsurprising, and it will not succeed in discharging Mr. Giuliani's debt to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss," Michael Gottleib, a lawyer for the two women, said in a statement.
On Wednesday, Judge Beryl Howell of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, ordered Giuliani to compensate the pair of election workers immediately, expressing concern that he may have been dishonest about his finances and that he might not comply with the judgment.
Giuliani had falsely claimed in the wake of the 2020 presidential election that the election workers engaged in a fake ballot processing scheme. His attorney recently signaled that his pockets weren't deep enough to pay out what Moss and Freeman had been seeking as compensation.
Giuliani political adviser Ted Goodman told CBS News that the bankruptcy filing "should be a surprise to no one."
"No person could have reasonably believed that Mayor Rudy Giuliani would be able to pay such a high punitive amount," he said in a statement. "Chapter 11 will afford Mayor Giuliani the opportunity and time to pursue an appeal, while providing transparency for his finances under the supervision of the bankruptcy court, to ensure all creditors are treated equally and fairly throughout the process.

148 mil???? They will never even see half.
But even if it is just 5 mil I guess it's still more than 98% of the population will ever see. Good for them.
Where is that fool with those eyes that comes on here? Feds will be looking for them offshore coins. Leave him some coins to buy some black hair dye that want run down his face.
I hope these women stay on his drunk azz like Fred Goldman did with OJ. Take every red cent Rudy has. Don’t even leave him enough money to go to the laundromat to wash his draws.
@4:40 The Goldman's haven't received one dime from OJ that man is still living a good retired life.
@4:40 The word is drawers, not draws and @5:42 is right: OJ is living the Vegas dream and Fred Goldman is just causing himself more pain.
Bih, please. I spell however I like. Got that? Good.
@542. True that. Thanks for the reminder.
Oji is probably living off his pension which cannot be touched even by little bit against in criminal cases.
There are videos of the ladies making copies of the mail in ballots.
You can "spell" however you like but you be "spelling" the wrong word. Just trying to tune you up out of your ignorance. Press on.
You ain't tryna tune me up. You scratchin an itch you have on how we communicate. You know it's rude to check others on gramma, spelling and usage.You know it says more about you than those you correct, but you jest cain't help yourself. I see you, bih.
You might wanna get some counseling for that.
@ 9:12 AM… Exactly! They’re guilty & should be in federal prison for election fraud! Smart move Rudy! Smart move!
That’s sad to be proud to be ignorant and don’t want to improve yourself with your misspelling ass ! Smh oh well bye
Hmmmm. I'm not sure Miss Manners would agree with you @9:58. But continue using the wrong word and maybe people will figure out what you're talking about. Again, press on.
Mispell words on a job application or any other important document and see where that will get you or let your employer “misspell” the amount you’re supposed to be paid and I bet you’ll have a fit !
Well, if I ever come across some draws on an application I'll be sure to spell it the preferred way.
Are some of you on here mental? There is no proof that these women cheated hints the money they are awarded by the courts. If you have the video play it.
These women were persecuted and traumatized by Rudy and his friends. They committed no crimes. These are jusr GOP trolls on this site trying to get a reaction.
I hope a judge still orders him to pay up.
He has to pay them regardless of bankruptcy because it was an intentional crime.
The Demented Donnie trolls from Sandra Rose showed up to spew their delusions 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bad for him.
Good for them.
It’s not drawers either. They’re undergarments or underwear. Never have I saw drawers on my receipts. 🧾
PS. Where I’m from the lingo “which is where draws and drawers come from” is drawls 🤗
@ 5:47pm. We’re going to spell it however we like and they’ll continue to get there draws in a bunch. We’ll continue to be here for the Karens, even the spelling-Nazi Karens.
