It’s not a very good day if your name happens to be Rudy Giuliani.
The former Mayor of New York City-turned-Trump henchman woke up Wednesday to Federal investigators executing a search warrant at his Manhattan apartment at about 6 a.m.
Giuliani, who acted as former President Trump’s personal lawyer, is being investigated on suspicions of crimes relating to dealings in Ukraine, The New York Times first reported Wednesday, calling the raid an “extraordinary move.”

Last year Federal prosecutors in New York also sought DoJ approval to execute searches on his electronic communications. Giuliani is now being investigated by the Souther District of New York — the same office he once led as U.S. Attorney.
Neither Giuliani nor Trump have commented on the raid of Giuliani’s home.

In other “uh oh, Rudy” news, Dominion Voting Systems filed a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit agains Giuliani in January related to false information he spread about the 2020 election.
The suit, filed in the Federal District Court in Washington, alleges that Giuliani knowingly spread false charges related to the system on a variety of platforms. It claims Giuliani engaged in “a viral disinformation campaign about Dominion” citing “50 statements Mr. Giuliani made at legislative hearings, on Twitter, on his podcast and in the conservative news media, where he spun a fictitious narrative of a plot by one of the biggest voting machine manufacturers in the country to flip votes to President Biden.” The suit also ties Giuliani’s statements to the Capitol insurrection of January 6, alleging that his words helped incite the violence.

Gee that’s too bad things are not going well for him, and he’s not getting any younger either.

Being involved with Trump PROVES Guiliani is a crook, and Trump will be next as New York State gets ready to indict him tax and loan fraud. Karma is NOT a bitch, but always makes thing right.

Hideous, treasonous, extremely racist Ghouliani might finally have to pay the piper! All his collaborators need to go down with his sinking ship too!

That took long enough. Or, more than long enough for most of the really horrible evidence to be destroyed and only the predictable stuff to be left behind.
Too bad there wasn’t half a gram of pot involved or something.

I’ll give thanks when he is in Rikers or where ever his crimes land him. Until then, I won’t count my chickens.
