Rudy Giuliani

Longtime Donald Trump fixer Michael Cohen seemed to thoroughly enjoy analyzing Rep. Matt Gaetz's legal woes during a Friday appearance on "The Beat" with Ari Melber.

Gaetz notoriously threatened Cohen on the eve his 2019 testimony before the House Oversight and Reform Committee.

Two of Fox News' primetime hosts on Thursday evening aired explicit images that allegedly captured President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden engaging in sexual acts.

According to Mediaite, Fox News host Tucker Carlson was joined by Josh Boswell, the Daily Mail senior reporter who released the publication's latest report detailing "what WASN'T in Hunter Biden's book," alleging a variety of malfeasance. They aired images that appeared to be Hunter Biden with women in sexual situations, with the women's faces blurred out.

U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz is lawyering up. The Florida Republican who allegedly is under DOJ investigation for possible child sex trafficking and for a possible sexual relationship with a 17 year old has hired two white collar criminal defense attorneys, including one with strong ties to Donald Trump and to the former President's former attorney, Rudy Giuliani, and one who represented a high-powered Democrat, according to NBC News' Garrett Haake.

Isabelle Kirshner represented former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who was accused of physically abusing women he was romantically or sexually involved with.

On Thursday, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan is not expected to run for a second term.

"Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan is unlikely to run for a second term as the state's No. 2 politician, according to a senior aide who said the Republican is instead expected to focus on his 'GOP 2.0' initiative to reframe the party in a post-Trump era," reported Greg Bluestein. "Duncan has signaled for months that he would not seek reelection, but he's declined to say publicly whether he will stand for another term. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Duncan's decision has not yet been finalized."

A federal judge hit a senior aide and attorney of Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) with sanctions ordering them to pay the cost of legal fees for a lawsuit they filed against CNN.

Donald Trump legal advisor Rudy Giuliani claimed he is the real victim after being sued over his role in pushing the "Big Lie" about election fraud that incited the fatal insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

On Wednesday, Giuliani filed a motion to dismiss a $1.3 billion lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems Inc.

After four years of watching him damage his reputation in the service of former president Donald Trump, critics of Rudy Giuliani were delighted to see reports that his son, Andrew, is considering a run against Gov. Andrew Cuomo for the governorship of New York.

Axios reported on Wednesday that the younger Giuliani -- who served in the Trump White House as a Special Assistant to the President and Associate Director of the Office of Public Liaison -- is ready to make the leap into office-holding with an eye on the governor's seat in Albany.

On CNN Wednesday, Georgia's Republican lieutenant governor, Geoff Duncan, tore into former President Donald Trump associate Rudy Giuliani for spreading the election lies that contributed to the most restrictive aspects of the GOP's voting bill in Georgia.

"We saw some pretty crazy stuff happen at the end of the 2020 election into 2021," said anchor John Berman. "Crazy stuff with elected officials calling for crazy things, including, you know, large groups of Republican legislators in the state of Georgia."

On Wednesday, The Daily Beast reported that the NAACP's civil rights lawsuit against President Donald Trump and the Capitol rioters is expanding to include new plaintiffs — including more members of Congress.

"Lawyers for the NAACP, which brought the suit early this year on behalf of Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), are set to file an amended complaint on Wednesday adding 10 new plaintiffs, two people familiar with the matter said," reported Asawin Suebsaeng and Adam Rawnsley. "The new plaintiffs will include other members of Congress, and the amended complaint is said to include additional information about the deadly Jan. 6 riot in Washington, D.C., which then-President Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani are accused of inciting, the sources added."

Conservative media lost their collective minds over rapper Lil Nas X's music video, in that it uses extensive religious imagery to convey his lyrics. A pair of shoes followed the release of the video, which also led the right-wing to clutch their pearls and shake their fingers.

But it was disgraced former Mayor Rudy Giuliani who John Oliver found particularly hilarious. In a takedown of the video, Giuliani tried to detail what was happening in the video that he objected to without actually saying what was happening.

According to a report from the Detroit News, a former lawmaker from Michigan who ran for governor has been put on notice by Dominion Voting Systems for traveling around the state and accusing them of election fraud while raising over $1 million in donations for his endeavors.

The report states that Patrick Colbeck has been accused by Dominion of making "false claims" during his PowerPoint presentation labeled "Case for MI Decertification."

Supporters of Donald Trump who pushed his "Big Lie" about election fraud in an effort to overturn the 2020 election are facing legal jeopardy beyond the criminal charges filed against the January 6th insurrection.

"With billions of dollars in lawsuits now in the balance, Dominion Voting Systems has quietly expanded its legal armada in recent days, as the election technology company goes after Trumpworld and conservative media giants," The Daily Beast reported Monday. "Clare Locke—the legal firm spearheading Dominion's lawsuits against Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell and pillow magnate Mike Lindell—recently brought in seven attorneys from the Texas-based firm of Susman Godfrey, which has experience litigating against the so-called 'Kraken' suits filed by one-time Trump attorneys Lin Wood and Sidney Powell."

Appearing on CNN's "Reliable Sources," an attorney from Dominion Voting Systems explained his client's billion dollar defamation lawsuit filed against Fox News and hinted the company is still pondering a lawsuit aimed at former President Donald Trump.

Speaking with host Brian Stelter, attorney Stephen Shackleford explained that top executives at the conservative news network already know the case is lost because they tried to make amends by backtracking on comments made by the network's personalities while on-air.

As Shackleford explained, the rush to correct the stories after weeks of their employees pushing the conspiracy theory that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Donald Trump was an admission of guilt. Add to that they ran disclaimers during low viewership hours while still promoting the lies at other hours.

"As you know, part of proving that a statement is defamatory is to prove that it was made either knowing the stories were false or with reckless disregard for the truth," the attorney stated. "You pointed out to your viewers that our complaint lays out in gory detail of days and days over weeks and weeks Fox kept spouting lies about Dominion, devastating lies about Dominion on their airwaves even while being told the truth over and over again."

"And yes, they were told the truth by Dominion," he continued. "Dominion sent multiple emails and retraction demands -- there was a chorus of bipartisan officials explaining how the lies were false. How the election -- how Dominion machines performed as they were supposed to and accurately counted the votes."

"Fox was not reporting the news with the news outlined in the complaint," he told the CNN host. "Fox was repeatedly stating as fact, putting on Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani and also with their own anchors endorsing what Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani were saying, all of these lies about Dominion and stating them as fact and they did have a Dominion spokesperson on at one point but it was much smaller viewership and Fox did not promote it like they promoted [the segments done by Maria] Bartiromo and [Lou] Dobbs and other shows they put throughout their massive social media network."

"But you can't get away from defamation by saying the truth in the morning and lying through your teeth in the afternoon," he explained. "If that was the case, all the media would have to do is issue a retraction after the damage. But that is not the law of defamation, knowing with reckless disregard."
