The curtain rises on another headline-grabbing chapter for Rudy Giuliani, one-time 'America's Mayor'. In a rustic Georgia courthouse, no less, a defamation case has resulted in a crushing $148 million penalty against him. The case was brought to trial by two former Peach State election workers who felt the sharp sting of those poisonous lies, peddled by Giuliani, questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 election results.
Guiliani's long fall from grace takes a rougher tumble with this verdict. This is the man who once stood tall on the cover of Time Magazine, shining as their 'Person of the Year' in the bleak aftermath of the September 11 attacks, a beacon for a distraught nation. But today, he finds himself in an unkind spotlight, ridiculed on late-night television and perched perilously on the edge of legal disaster and financial ruin.
