Trump Campaign owes Rudy Giuliani $2 million for outstanding legal 'salary' bills: report

Rudy Giuliani accused his most famous client's campaign of stiffing him for a $2 million tab.

Giuliani appeared in U.S. Bankruptcy Court on Wednesday after filing for Chapter 11 protection in December when a Georgia jury ordered him to pay $148 million for defaming a mother and her daughter who sued him for defaming them when they served as election workers back in 2020.

In meeting with creditors, Giuliani says Donald Trump’s 2020 election campaign and the Republican National Committee are in arrears of $2 million for legal fees, according to Bloomberg Law.

“I got paid expenses but I never got a salary,” he said when being questioned about his finances by U.S. Trustee attorney Andrea Schwartz.

He stressed that the bill isn't directly related to the 45th president himself.

After several hours of questioning, Giuliani, who credited Trump as his private client for years and earned a reputation as a respected federal prosecutor before that, opened up about his financial status which includes $10.6 million in assets but shows he is also on the hook for $153 million in liabilities, the outlet reported.

The beleaguered figure, revered as "America's Mayor" said that his income has dwindled since he started repping Trump, but the defamation judgment forced his hand to file for protection.

His adviser, Ted Goodman said that Giuliani was forced into Chapter 11 by the “the abhorrent weaponization of our justice system for partisan political gain,” according to the outlet.

“The only reason we’re here today is because Mayor Rudy Giuliani has the courage to speak up and take on the permanent Washington political class, and he refuses to be unfairly censored or bullied into silence,” he added, according to Bloomberg.

Giuliani has already stated he would appeal the defamation verdict amount (not the full verdict), awarded to Ruby Freeman, and her daughter Shaye Moss.
