Rudy Giuliani has been suspended temporarily from practicing law in New York state due to making “false and misleading statements” about the election loss of former President Donald Trump, his client.

[ScubaDiver]

Dems have perfected lawfare.

[Eagles6]

Yep.

No matter how nice the amenities, a gulag is still a gulag.

[liberalh8ter]

How convenient that Michigan rolled out their “no fraud” statement when we all saw the damn videos. Was this used to strip Rudy of his ability to practice law?

[Vaquero]

So freedom of speech. Now gone?

[Sacajaweau]

Free speech is out!!

[SueRae]

This is such b.s. New York is fully in the toilet.

[enumerated]

Wow. This country is in real trouble.

[frank ballenger]

Old Soviet schisms with anyone for one group’s guy targeted by the other side is what America has become.

Did you say he liked Trump? Destroy him with extreme prejudice.

Ivanka’s clothes line or the MyPillow products in store? No, take them out and ban them from the store.

Book is conservative leaning? Not allowed to be published here.

[Savage Rider]

Sounds like a perfect venue to show the fact that these are not false statements.

[Quentin Quarantino]

Consensus Reality is such a drag.

[Soul of the South]

“Dems have perfected lawfare.”

If Rudy has proof backing up his statements he should have grounds for an appeal.

[SmokingJoe]

When is the last time Giuliani actually practiced law in New York?

[Erik Latranyi]

This was just a test to see if it can stand.

If it does (and I expect it will), the left can go after any attorney who supports right-wing causes or groups to disbar them, leaving us with no legal representation.

We will be forced to use Politburo approved attorneys as our defense and you know what that means.

[BrexitBen]

Has the FCC suspended the Fake News media for making false statements ?

After all, they do it every single day.

[Don Corleone]

The Communists are a never ending threat to our freedom and safety.

[con-surf-ative]

If every lawyer was disbarred for lying, we wouldn’t have many left! And I’m a lawyer.

[bray]

Only for non-Communists.

[I want the USA back]

Obviously an act of political revenge.

[fwdude]

Wow!

Do criminal defense attorneys get the same treatment for false statements made about their criminal client being “innocent” when the evidence is overwhelming for guilt?

[The Unknown Republican]

From one attorney to another, I concur.
