Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

These women deserve to be paid as their lives were entirely upended by his words and will almost certainly never be the same again. But unfortunately, the verdict is almost entirely symbolic as Giuliani is considered by virtually everyone to be broke. They'll have a long line of people to stand behind who are all clawing for whatever scraps he's got left.
Not the NY court system. The courts are assuming he's hiding money & told the jurors to ignore his claims of insolvency.
With any luck, he's going die under a bridge somewhere with a bottle of Mad Dog in hand.
Bankrupt != broke. He still has a lot of assets, multiple properties IIRC.
You recall correctly. Copy/paste from something I posted in another thread.
Yeah but even if he's forced to sell off his assets, which is extremely likely, you're still talking years of red tape and having a deathmatch with his many other creditors before they'd actually see any of that money, if ever. And that's assuming it's all straightforward. If he goes full Alex Jones and intentionally tries to gum up the works, god knows how long it'll drag out for.
Ensuring his later years are filled with endless stressful legal battles as he tries to hold on to his last possessions also gives me schadenfreude, especially if he will have to pay it anyway.
I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment, but wish there were a way that could be done while these two women also get paid.
It'd be funnier if he flees to Russia only to be photographed fighting on the front lines in Ukraine. Shovel in one hand, colostomy bag in the other.
Only if that shovel is used to dig his own grave.
The fact that Moss & Bridge's lawyers want to get paid will speed that process up quite a bit.
