Rudy Giuliani suffers fresh humiliation -- he's suspended from practicing law in DC too

Source: raw story





July 07, 2021


Rudy Giuliani was suspended from practicing law in New York last month after several complaints about the rampant dishonesty he deployed in his failed quest to overturn the 2020 presidential election.


While investigating the complaints and Giuliani's previous actions, the New York Bar Association suspended him.

"The New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) strongly condemned the violent uprising that occurred at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, orchestrated by individuals bent on subverting the will of the voters by disrupting the certification of the 2020 presidential election results," the Bar wrote at the time.

One of the ways that someone can become a member of the Washington, D.C. Bar is passing the bar exam in another state and then applying to become a member in Washington. ....................................

What was once known as Hot Springs, NM changed its name in 1950.

He tells just as many tall tales and flings slanderous b.s. as his most infamous client while so obviously intoxicated. He just needs to shut the heck up. His source of income is going to dry up especially since tRump continues to stiff him for all the legal work he has done on the orange menace's behalf.

Don't misunderstand, I'm not trying to defend anybody, but I'll just throw this out there for those that might be wondering about best practice for reporting rumors - it's always better to couch potentially defamatory statements with weasel-words like "allegedly" or "reportedly" or "in my opinion" or "rumors say" in order to avoid any potential liability.

😂😂😂😂😂If anybody was “Practicing” law in DC there would be no GQP. A little practice may help em understand what is law, what ain’t.
Gooliani has been breaking law in DC in our face for nearly 5 years.

into legal malpractice? It continues today. Suits filed against social media by the next line of lawyers, even worse than the others. I guess the lure of fame and perceived fortune trumps all?

Since the time he was Mayor of NYC he has acted shamefully. He DOES NOT CARE! He needs to borrow that jacket from Melania. He is a walking, talking disaster. Putting his hands in his pants on bed as he was spoofed, hair dye running down his face, holding a presser for the POS tRump at a landscaping company next to a mortuary, etc. Home was raided and 18 devices/cell phones were found. Rudy is worse than the shit you scrape off of the bottom of your shoe. He has no values, morals, patriotism, etc. Strip him of any remaining dignity, if that is possible.

I guess the effect is the same, but still... a mere "suspension" doesn't seem strong enough to me.
