Fresh from the latest day of the civil trial brought against Rudy Giuliani by Georgia poll workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, Giuliani declined to discuss the case directly with reporters — but he lashed out at Freeman and Moss' attorneys, and claimed they had ties to Hunter Biden, reported Politico's Kyle Cheney.
Giuliani, a former federal prosecutor and mayor of New York City who helped former President Donald Trump push conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, is accused of defaming Freeman and Moss with false claims that they were stuffing ballots during the vote count in Atlanta.
A judge has already found for the poll workers on summary judgment, and the remainder of the trial is about assessing damages.

"I'm not going to discuss the case right now because it seems to get the judge annoyed," said Giuliani to reporters. "The reality is that I've never seen that many lawyers ... [from] the most expensive law firm in America, this is multi millions of dollars being spent, it can't be ignored that the chief lawyer represented Burisma and is close to Hunter Biden."
"Gottlieb represented the crooked company Burisma, which is alleged to have paid $5 million to Hunter Biden and $5 million to Joe Biden in a communication to a highly reliable FBI source," Giuliani continued.
Giuliani was pivotal in pushing a claim that President Biden, when he worked in the Obama administration, pressured Ukraine to remove a prosecutor general who was supposedly planning to investigate Burisma. This has been repeatedly debunked.
