looks like giuliani better get really comfortable in the bed he made
Under “tax refunds owed to you,” the filing also mentions “Overpayment of taxes from The Mask Singer” in California for more than $10,000. Mr Giuliani performed on “The Masked Singer” in 2022, in which he sang “Bad to the Bone.”
This timeline is just too weird.
I'm really curious how much the shit stain got paid for the one or two episodes on the Masked Singer that it could be possible to have overpaid his taxes related to it by over $10K.
Do you think reality has writers strikes
Apparently our reality is being written by a crappy AI
I really enjoyed the first couple seasons of that show but then it abruptly went downhill pretty fast.
Everybody predicted this but him. Trump never pays!

Back in the day, Rudy slandered an EMS crew because they were following the established protocols.
He never apologized, and actually tried to play off that he was 'saving' the patient.
I swear it's getting harder and harder to guess which news article is from The Onion and which one is not lol
In this case, an article from The Onion wouldn't be nearly as funny.
"Rudy Giuliani listed a claim against the one-term president"
Ha!
I caught that too. Nice little jab in case Orange Julius Caesar reads it
Alright, this is the only Trump nickname I can actually fuck with. All the other ones are pretty cringe to me, but this one I like.
Not even Cheeto Mussolini?
OJC is pretty solid though. Especially while his buddies are (possibly) stabbing him in the back.
I thought that was funny, so I checked the source again, leaving me disappointed - feeling that they were just providing context for international readers.
Am I wrong (it was indeed a jab over the Stop The Steal mindset)?
The article, if I recall, used multiple such phrases in lieu of pronouns and articles just to make the story flow a little more nicely.
Still made me snort.
If only there had been some previous examples of Trump not paying people, maybe this could've been avoided?
I didn’t know you could not pay your lawyers if they lose. Neat.
(starts the popcorn)
If he agrees to testify for immunity or a reduced sentence, Trump would be fucked
Too late for that
Fuckinglol eat shit putz
This is good though, it means the infighting has started to finally reach the top. The rats will eat each other now.
checks watch
C’mon, c’mon!
How was this guy a mayor?
Trump has a decades long history of not paying his debts. I assumed all his lawyers would insist on payment in full first.
He was able to ride high off of 9/11.
He was mayor during 9/11, not because of it.
That aside, you're right about him coasting off 9/11 for quite a while. His failed Presidential bid was basically him spamming "9/11” from start, to finish.
He had the same problem as Meatball Ron: the more the GOP base voters heard him and saw him, the more they were repulsed by him.
Oh no, he's not getting paid!
He doesn't even know how much he's not getting paid apparently
I thought that was weird too. What kind of attorney doesn't keep track of his billable hours? Oh, right. We're talking about Gouliani
Old tar scalp
Fucking lol. Also, love your username 👍
🙌
Hopefully for him: at least 148 mil
Jesus fucking christ this is good shit, LMAO!
Idiots confused by idiocy, how idiotic
Is this a leopard face-eating incident?
More like an "oh no, the ass kisser is biting"
LMAO
L o f l
LOL, Roodles. Did he figure out the leopard bit his face?
Alcohol’s a helluva drug.
You know, this may well be an avenue in which to undermine Trump's desire to return to presidency. He still has a base, but you attack his wealth including his crony's, and to try to make his candidacy financially unsustainable. Noam Chomsky said how much money you can throw at election campaigning is what ultimately dictates whether you could win or not.
Noam Chomsky also told us to mind our own business and shut up, when asked about his dealings with Jeffrey Epstein.
I thought you were joking. But after Googling, he had some associations with Epstein 😲
Many people have met Epstein etc and have done nothing shady, those people generally come out and say they only met him for dinner, etc. Chomsky didn't say "I barely knew him and met for dinner" or some defense. When asked, Chomsky said "none of your business what my dealings with Epstein were" which to me is very damning
You’re not wrong, but context is important. Jerkass interviewer trying to force a gotcha moment runs with “he told me to shut up! Omg guilty”
Epstein sleazed around a LOT of places, notably science and university circles. Bill Barr’s dad knows.
I prefer to bag on Chomsky for not supporting Ukraine.
Slight twist here He's not looking for the presidency. His goal is to get in disable the Justice Department and the Executive Department and turn it into a mini dictatorship. If he manages to get in he doesn't have any money problems anywhere.
To be honest, none of this is really hitting him anyway. He owes shit tons of money to so many people, He's just not going to pay any of them.
I also suspect he's able to work this in a way where campaign finance isn't quite as big of a deal. He already gets absolute free coverage for everything he does. If he didn't rally in campaign in every red state would that really affect his base significantly? If he did really would it change any significant number of mines that wouldn't vote for otherwise? The people who are or aren't voting for him at this point already understand his goals. He could probably rally these people's effectively on a YouTube video as he could in person
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Donald Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani has listed a claim against the one-term president over unpaid legal fees in a new bankruptcy filing.
The ex-New York City mayor includes a “possible claim for unpaid legal fees against Donald J Trump.” in the 26 January filing, which states that the amount is “undetermined.”
Mr Giuliani filed for bankruptcy last month, days after a federal judge ordered him to “immediately” pay more than $148m to a pair of Georgia election workers a jury determined he defamed.
The newspaper reported that the former president told his aides that he didn’t want Mr Giuliani to receive “a dime” unless he succeeded in the case, and noted that $340,000 had been paid to Mr Giuliani — through Trump’s Save America PAC — to cover some of his ex-lawyer’s legal debt.
The filing shows that “Joseph Biden Defamation Action” is also listed for an “undetermined” amount after Mr Giuliani sued the president in October after he used the phrase “Russian pawn” during a presidential debate in 2020.
But the record also shows the fund has spent more than $500,000 on his legal fees, leaving $180,000 in cash on hand.
