WASHINGTON, Aug 30 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's former lawyer Rudy Giuliani is liable for defaming two election workers in Georgia, a U.S. judge in Washington said on Wednesday. Judge Beryl Howell issued the order as a sanction against Giuliani for failing to turn over electronic records sought by the two election workers, Wandrea "Shaye" Moss and her mother Ruby Freeman, in the case. The judge's order means Giuliani will have to pay damages for spreading false vote-rigging claims against the pair following the 2020 U.S. presidential election. He previously admitted that his statements were false and damaged Moss and Freeman's reputations. Giuliani will face a civil trial in Washington, D.C. federal court to determine how much he will have to pay.

DNC stooge Beryl Howell was in on the ground floor of modern American vote fraud.

How ironic this is.

Julie Kelly seem to put Beryl Howell right at the top of the lawfare insurrection against the Constitution, although I can’t see how she’s worse than Amy Berman Jackson.

DPO (Democrat Party operative) Beryl Howell was in on the ground floor of modern American vote fraud.

Julie Kelly is right.

Amy Berman Jackson is a mere toddler compared to that POS.

Just to nit-pick, didn’t ABJ allow a known Democrat activist to sit as forewoman on Roger Stone’s jury?

What about the video evidence of Ruby Freeman running the same stack of ballots thru the counter 3 times?

Default judgement, so the same as Alex Jones, guilty by proclamation.

Yes, she did:

Beryl Howell clerked for Dickinson Debevoise as he put the finishing touches on the 1982 RNC Consent Decree:

End of 1982 Consent Decree: GOP can finally contest vote fraud after 36 years

And now Beryl the Democrat is sitting in judgement of a Republican opponent - on a Democrat vote fraud case.

Giuliani was ordered to share his evidence through the discovery process and failed to do so. Additionally, he already stipulated that his accusation against Freeman and her daughter were false.

His admission of error is a mark of good character. A Democrat would have denied a similar claim to the bitter end, true or not.

No he didn’t, he pled nolo contendere-”a plea by which a defendant in a criminal prosecution accepts conviction as though a guilty plea had been entered but does not admit guilt.” Why he did it is yet to become apparent; in the meantime unfortunately, he’s given his enemies a sharp stick to poke at him to the pleasure of the ignorant. On the other hand, there has never been even an attempt to explain why those women were seen feeding ballots through that tabulator repeatedly. If there are other videos showing that ballots other than the 2AM “ all vote counting is suspended” ballots were treated similarly, that would be a start to showing that it is normal procedure, so show us that video since you accept that the accusations he made were false.

July 26:

“Rudy Giuliani conceded in a court filing that he made false statements when he said two Georgia election workers mishandled ballots during the 2020 election.

“In 2021, Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss, who are mother and daughter, filed a defamation lawsuit against Giuliani for these accusations in the federal court in Washington, D.C.

“And in his latest court filings for this case, the former New York City mayor backed off his previous statements.

“While Giuliani does not admit to Plaintiffs’ allegations, he — for purposes of this litigation only — does not contest the factual allegations,” court documents filed Tuesday read.”

I don’t see any plea. Nolo contendere is guilty by any other name, but the proceeding in which Giuliani refused to defend against the plaintiff’s assertion wasn’t a plea of any sort.

Probably looking at a pile of legal bills and spending however many hours on all of the fed persecution , like seizing electronics in FBI raid while having his offer of Biden laptop crimes not seized, he may look at this one as small fry (relatively). On the other hand have you found the video that these women were handling the 2 PM ballots just the way we see them handling the 2 AM ballots? If so , you win the argument. Until then you are just smoothing over the lies anyone can read in mainstream press.

Correct. Drag queen Rudi was a deep state plant to take down Trump, I’m now convinced. He’s an alcoholic who drank away his mind, a perfect useful idiot for the DS.

“He admitted that his statements were false. He can’t appeal. He stipulated that he defamed them.”

I was not aware of this.

OTOH, as I said, I saw the video of these two women cheating!

Something is at play that we are not privy to?

Then there is this. https://joehoft.com/bombshell-exclusive-nationwide-cellular-network-connects-election-equipment-and-gives-federal-government-access-to-election-systems-at-the-precinct-level/

When you look at the different possible configurations with the voting machines, you see one utilizing 'ginger snaps' (USB sticks) to violate the 'no connection' zone.

The site cameras picked it up, unknown to cheaters.

The could be true, but Giuliani never offered it in court as a justification of his accusation against Freeman and her daughter.

I think that's why the recent hearing is so confusing. Guiliani admitted the facts before the court are not contested, from his case perspective. That is not admitting guilt. The cheaters didn't know about the convention site security cameras (for slip-n-fall surveillance) until after the case had been presented. And the Joe Hoft expose of the National Preemptive Emergency Cellular Network isn't a month old yet.
