Rudy Giuliani fears 'prison for the rest of my life' after laptop 'manipulation' claim

Rudy Giuliani expressed fear on Sunday that he could go to prison for the rest of his life after Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) suggested that data from Hunter Biden's laptop had been "manipulated" by the former New York mayor.

On his Sunday radio program, Giuliani said he deserved praise for exposing the contents of a laptop belonging to President Joe Biden's son, Hunter.

"Do you think I'm entitled to some credit for being the one who brought out Biden for the first time?" Giuliani asked longtime girlfriend and co-host Maria Ryan.

"You deserve a lot of credit," Ryan agreed.

"They don't," Giuliani complained. "They think I deserve to go to prison for the rest of my life for doing it."

"That's why they went after you, Rudy, because you had information, and you were highly credible," Ryan insisted. "They had to discredit you, so they made up stories about you."

Giuliani argued that he had been "vindicated" even though a lawsuit from Hunter Biden accused him of hacking and manipulating the laptop's contents.

"I was accused by Biden during the last debate, presidential debate, by name, of being a Russian pawn," he complained. "It is proven that I'm not."

"And then this liar, the newest big liar in the Democratic Party, Dan Goldman from New York, a little rich boy, comes out and calls me a Russian pawn again," he added.

At a House Judiciary Committee hearing last week, Goldman said there was evidence Giuliani had "manipulated" the laptop's hard drive.

"You have no idea, you know hard drives can be manipulated," Rep. Goldman told a witness. "Hard drives can be manipulated by Rudy Giuliani or Russia. There is actual evidence of it, but the point is it's not the same thing."

Giuliani is facing charges in Georgia related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, but he has not been indicted in connection to the laptop.
