Rudy Giuliani (Steve Bannon's War Room).
Former President Trump's ally Rudy Giuliani, fresh off his $148 million court defeat in the defamation case brought by Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, acted surprised on Steve Bannon's War Room show on Thursday when Bannon reminded him of what his reported total liabilities were.
"America's Mayor," said Bannon. "You're one of the smartest lawyers in the country. Tell us what happened this afternoon."
"Well, I mean, I don't think it's much of an embarrassment to say that I can't afford $148 million," said Giuliani. "That, that's way beyond what I consider to be a rather decent net worth and proud of it. But about $130 million short."
"The one thing that caught, particularly your, your friends and colleagues by surprise and the filing, at least the headlines in the New York Post and other places, CNN. You listed liabilities of $200 to $500 million?"

"Liabilities of $200?" said Giuliani. "I don't have liabilities of $200. That's just wrong. The liabilities that I have are in excess of that. Maybe a million dollars. So it's the 148 plus, maybe 7, 800,000. I don't have, I don't have any mortgage, have any loans. So there's something we will spend 99 percent of my liabilities are that, is that judgment? 98 percent is that judgment? Without that judgment I'm perfectly solvent."
"I think, I think New York Post was the same," said Bannon. "I think it said $200 to $500 million."
"Oh my goodness," said Giuliani. "Maybe, you know, you know what they're doing. I know what they're doing. They're looking at the other cases, what they're doing is they're saying if all the other cases were to go to conclusion and get the money that they're asking for, but that's, I mean, that's really in never, never land. Like, for example, Dominion is asking for $1.2 billion. So I, I, maybe somebody wants to consider that a liability, but it's not a real — it hasn't become, what it hasn't become any kind of a verdict or a judgment yet. So that's what I think they're doing. They're taking all those other cases and they're saying, suppose he loses all those cases, he'd owe $500 million, but I don't owe it right now and I don't think I am gonna lose all those cases. I don't even know how Dominion can recover another cent. They've already recovered four times the value of their company."

Rudy Giuliani begs bankruptcy court to let him keep his Florida condo so he can keep podcasting to pay creditors

When Rudy Giuliani defamed two poll workers with bunk allegations of election fraud in 2020, it triggered a wave of threats so acute, one of the workers was forced to flee her longtime home in Georgia. Now, the ally to former President Donald Trump — and his co-defendant in the racketeering case in Fulton County — is experiencing some domicile difficulties of his own.
In a motion filed Thursday, Giuliani, who owes election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss $148 million for defaming them, asked a bankruptcy court in the Southern District of New York to let him keep his Florida condominium, valued at $3.5 million, as he fights the judgment on appeal.
The former New York mayor’s attorneys wrote in the 12-page motion that the recommendation by the Committee on Unsecured Creditors that he sell the home since declaring bankruptcy was premature.
“It appears that the Committee is assuming that most if not all of the Freeman judgment will survive on appeal, and is proceeding as if all of the Debtor’s assets need to be liquidated now to satisfy a potentially inflated claim. The debtor could be irreparably harmed if the Florida residence is sold and later it turns out that the Freeman judgment is vacated,” the instant motion states.
The committee told him there was “no legal basis” for him to keep the property.
Giuliani does not oppose the sale of his property in Manhattan, however. That property could be sold so he could make his primary residence in Florida, he contends. His lawyers noted that the New York property is expected to be listed by Sotheby’s soon for $5 million.
With that home sold, Giuliani said he expects “his monthly expenses will be significantly reduced.”
Though he claims creditors are accusing him of operating with “reckless abandon and improper judgment” in his attempt to hold onto the Florida property, Giuliani says he is “using sound business judgment” by acknowledging that one property must be sold while he keeps the other to “grow his broadcast income,” the motion states.
Debtors should not be forced to sell property where there is a “valid business justification,” he argues.
And as bankruptcy proceedings have been underway in recent weeks, Giuliani has emphasized repeatedly that his income flows from those broadcasting and podcasting businesses. As Law&Crime previously reported, the podcasts include Common Sense, which is distributed through YouTube, Rumble and Spike, as well as Uncovering the Truth, and The Rudy Giuliani Show. Giuliani streams those podcasts live on Instagram.
“Once the New York apartment is sold, the debtor will need a place to operate the Podcast from if he is to earn any money therefrom, the only remaining location would be from the Florida Condominium. The debtor is actually saving money as he does not need to pay for and maintain both a Podcast studio and his residence in both New York City and Florida,” his attorneys wrote.
In fact, they added, it was that income, and whatever future income he may earn, that would “only serve to benefit creditors.”
How profitable those future podcasts may be could be a bit unpredictable. Giuliani is still working to remain relevant on right-wing sites, though. To wit, on Thursday night during an appearance on the Rob Schmitt Tonight program for Newsmax, Giuliani railed about the judge overseeing Trump’s defamation case with writer E. Jean Carroll. He called the judge a “disgrace” and continued with his take on the judge’s findings.
“[Trump] was found not liable for rape,” he said. “It was sexual assault. Not rape. And second, you can be guilty of rape and still a person could be a whacko. That was the defamation — you’re allowed to defend yourself against defamation.”
Carroll claimed Trump raped and sexually assaulted her in a dressing room in the 1990s and at trial, she said he used both his fingers and penis to do so. The jury found he had only used his fingers, causing both immediate pain as well as long-lasting emotional psychological harm, as Law&Crime previously reported, but presiding Judge Lewis Kaplan explained even though jurors had not found Trump “raped” her under the technical definition — New York state law limits rape to the insertion of the penis into a person’s vagina — it “does not mean that she failed to prove Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.'”
“Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that,” Lewis wrote.
The “whacko” reference by Giuliani echoes similar commentary Trump used to describe Carroll in a 2022 deposition when he called her a “whack job” and “sick.” That deposition was played for jurors at the this year defamation trial and when asked by attorneys if he stood behind it in 2024, Trump replied: “100%.”
A spokesperson for Giuliani did not immediately respond to a request for comment Friday.
