"Rudy Giuliani Faces Massive $148M Defamation Verdict for Targeting Georgia Election Workers"

Rudy Giuliani's lawyers argue that a $148 million defamation ruling against him would devastate his net worth, describing it as the "civil equivalent of the death penalty." Giuliani was ordered to pay $148 million to two Atlanta election workers he falsely accused of ballot fraud. The jury awarded the plaintiffs $75 million in punitive damages and $20 million each for emotional distress. Giuliani, who is facing other lawsuits, plans to appeal the decision, claiming it is part of an effort to intimidate Trump lawyers and supporters. He also questions the legitimacy of the Biden administration and accuses one of the attorneys representing the plaintiffs of being a friend of Hunter Biden.
