Rudy Giuliani

Pro-Donald Trump Republicans and other right-wingers are beginning to rally the flag not just around Rudy Giuliani amid his sexual harassment accusations, but they're now even rallying around Russell Brand, the comedian accused of rape and sexual assault.

Figures including Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson are all jumping to the British star's defense – and claiming a conspiracy against him.

The panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" jumped all over former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani on Friday morning, reacting to news that his legal woes have taken a turn for the worst, his finances are in shambles and now he is being deluged with new accusations.

With co-host Mika Brzezinski opening the segment by noting that Giuliani's world has collapsed and now he is being accused of ignoring a federal order, she suggested, "it keeps coming."

"Every day, Willie [Geist], it gets worse for the guy who once called himself America's mayor," co-host Joe Scarborough interjected. "It's -- I don't -- you know, I don't know if he faces prison, if he faces bankruptcy, if he faces additional charges."

"Again, it's just from all directions, and this is the cost, of course, when you turn your life over to Donald Trump," he added.

"Yeah, America's deadbeat," co-host Geist remarked which led Scarborough to laugh. "It appears. He can't pay any of his legal bills. He's on the hook now for these women in Georgia, who he clearly and explicitly defamed, Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman, owes them a bunch of money -- it's only just beginning."

He continued, "It was all fun and games until the indictments started coming down, when he was playing along with Donald Trump, doing whatever he said around the 2020 election, around January 6th. He had prominence, relevance, and was on TV all the time. Now, for people around Donald Trump, the bill is coming due."

Rudy Giuliani allegedly groped a White House aide shortly before Donald Trump spoke on Jan. 6, and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough listed that as just the latest example of the "sick culture" the former president promotes around him.

Cassidy Hutchinson, the former aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, claims in her new book that Giuliani ran his "frozen fingers" up her skirt to her thigh, and she says Trump legal adviser watched with a "leering grin," and the "Morning Joe" host found the allegations disgusting and wholly unsurprising.

Reacting to new allegations from former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson that former Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani groped her as the Jan.6 insurrection was playing out, a former prosecutor who worked out of the Southern District of New York U.S. attorney's office suggested the bombshell news could play a part in an existing sexual harassment civil suit Giuliani is already facing.

Speaking with CNN's John Berman, Jessica Roth of the Cardozo School of Law pointed out that Noelle Dunphy, who is suing the former New York City mayor for over $10 million could use the Hutchinson allegations to bolster her case against Giuliani.

Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson asserted in a new book that Rudy Giuliani groped her on Jan. 6, just before the U.S. Capitol attack.

Excerpts of Hutchinson's book, "Enough," were published on Wednesday by The Guardian.

During Tuesday's episode of MSNBC's The ReidOut with Joy Reid, legal analyst Barbara McQuade explained why former President Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani might need a public defender, and the steps he would have to take in order to get one.

Recently indicted by an Atlanta grand jury alongside Trump on charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election and already dealing with "financial difficulties," the ex-New York mayor was sued this week by his lawyer for $1.3 million in "unpaid legal fees," according to The New York Times.

Former President Donald Trump's close ally Rudy Giuliani is being sued by his lawyer, Robert Costello, for $1.36 million in unpaid legal fees, MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin reported on Monday.

The lawsuit was filed in the Supreme Court of New York for Manhattan.

Reacting to the highly public dissolution of former Donald Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis's relationship with the former president – who she now says is a "malignant narcissist" – MSNBC's "Morning Joe" panel piled on her for finally figuring her former boss out.

Last week the embattled Ellis, who was swept up in a 19-person racketeering indictment in Georgia related to election tampering, proclaimed there was no way she would vote for Trump for president in 2024.

That led conservative Charlie Sykes to blast the lawyer who stood by the side of Rudy Giuliani trying to get the 2020 election results overturned.

"She is shocked, shocked to learn there's a cult of personality around a malignant narcissist and fellow conservatives are willing to put his needs ahead of the constitution," he sarcastically began. "I'm sorry. Welcome to the resistance, Jenna – if only you had been warned."

"[Co-panelist] Jonathan Lemire is absolutely right," he continued. " It's striking how a criminal indictment can marvelously focus the mind about things that you've probably known all along."

"I do wonder how many of these people in the inner circle part of the big lie conspiracy have known all along, who all know that Donald Trump is a malignant narcissist?" he joked.
