all he has is lies and smears, and acting like a seventh grader. Rudy - go home...

When I went to law school, they told us that when the facts weren't on your side, argue the law, and when the law wasn't on your side, argue the facts.

Apparently at Giuliani's law school they taught that when neither the facts nor law is on your side, you call the opposing lawyer names.

Rudy's getting eaten alive by Avenatti. Tee hee.

That's going to leave a mark

What a laughingstock.

You're along for the ride whether you like it or not pal!

"...and they turn out to mean nothing. I think he's going to get himself in serious trouble."

Donald didn't suffer any ill effects from his birtherism.

You won't like the reaction.

"If the rise of Bernard B. Kerik under the mentorship of Rudolph W. Giuliani was meteoric, the speed of his fall was breathtaking."

"In December 2004, President Bush nominated Mr. Kerik, a former New York police commissioner, to head the federal Department of Homeland Security. Seven days later, Mr. Kerik withdrew as a nominee.

A cascade of questions followed about his judgment as a public official, not least that he had inappropriately lobbied city officials on behalf of Interstate Industrial, a construction firm suspected of links to organized crime. Mr. Giuliani defended Mr. Kerik, a friend and business partner, whom he had recommended to the Bush administration. But he also tried to shield himself from accusations that he had ignored Mr. Kerik’s failings.

'I was not informed of it,' Mr. Giuliani said then, when asked if he had been warned about Mr. Kerik’s relationship with Interstate before appointing him to the police post in 2000."

What Michael Avenatti is doing is called representing his client.

I've thought that, if she were paying an attorney who's also a professional talking for all the hours he's spent on TV becoming a national figure, she'd be far dumber than I take her for.

But the implications of this headline are far broader, of course. Typical undermining-by-headline, the media involved knowing most people who see them will not open and read further. The NYT (and many other media with reputations for respectability, including The Hill of course) used this insidious ploy every day on Hillary.
