It's nice to see him exposed as the scum he is though. I know most of you don't frequent "entertainment news" sites (gossip sites) but the almost non stop racist attacks against the Duchess of Sussex, her husband being called an imbecile, and snide remarks about their children are horrific and all stem from "anonymous sources". It's not just him though and I hope all of them are exposed for the bottom feeders they are.

Go for it, gurl. Set the precedent for the THIRD LAWSUIT (because he will insult her again).

I guess whoever paid his bail is behind this.

If Ms Carroll goes ahead with a second defamation case more power to her. If after spending so many years of her life with this monster living in her head she opts not to, more power to her. The idiot filed an appeal which may or may not allow his remarks from last night to be added to the case. I'm just asking the question.

You knew that Mr Delay would file an appeal to the Carroll case

When the tide turns against him, legally, I hope he becomes bankrupt. He really needs to be taught so many lessons, but the only lesson his simplistic mind will ever hear is money he has to pay.

Look at what is happening with Santos - anonymous people putting up bail money - paying legal expenses - I doubt that Trump spending his own money on these defenses so far.

Just imagine having a $10MM legal expenses tab on the president of the USA.
What leverage.

Rudy Giuliani sued by former assistant alleging sexual assault and harassment
Noelle Dunphy gives graphic descriptions of assault and also accuses former New York mayor of wage theft in 70-page lawsuit

A former associate of Rudy Giuliani sued the former New York mayor, presidential candidate and attorney to Donald Trump for $10m on Monday, alleging “abuses of power, wide-ranging sexual assault and harassment, wage theft and other misconduct” including “alcohol-drenched rants that included sexist, racist and antisemitic remarks”.

Filed in New York state, Noelle Dunphy’s suit includes the allegation that Giuliani “often demanded oral sex while he took phone calls on speaker phone from high-profile friends and clients, including then-President Trump”.

Giuliani is alleged to have told Dunphy “he enjoyed engaging in this conduct while on the telephone because it made him ‘feel like Bill Clinton’”.

Clinton was impeached in 1998 for lying about an affair while he was president, with Monica Lewinsky, then a White House intern.

On Monday, in a statement to the New York Daily News, a Giuliani representative said the former mayor “vehemently and completely denies the allegations in the complaint and plans to thoroughly defend against these allegations. This is pure harassment and an attempt at extortion.”

Giuliani was already in extensive legal jeopardy. His work in Ukraine seeking dirt on Trump’s rivals led to Trump’s first impeachment. His leading role in the attempt to overturn the 2020 election contributed to Trump being impeached an unprecedented second time.

With his law licenses already suspended, Giuliani is reported to be at risk of criminal indictment.

In her 70-page lawsuit, Dunphy says Giuliani hired her in January 2019.

At that time, the suit says, Giuliani was “at the height of his influence, serving as the personal lawyer” for Trump, having “fashioned himself publicly as a major player in American politics, a successful businessman, and an important powerbroker”.

The suit says Giuliani offered Dunphy $1m a year plus expenses to be his director of business development, also offering to represent her for free in a dispute with an abusive ex-partner.

Giuliani is alleged to have deferred paying Dunphy, citing his acrimonious divorce from Judith Giuliani, his third wife. But he allegedly was swift to demand sex.

“As Giuliani later admitted in a recorded statement,” the suit says, “he ‘wanted [Dunphy] from the day [he] interviewed [her]’.”

The suit contains remarks it says were recorded.

Giuliani, the filing says, “began abusing Ms Dunphy almost immediately after she started working”, making clear “that satisfying his sexual demands … virtually anytime, anywhere … was an absolute requirement”.

The document is filled with lurid allegations. Giuliani, it says, often demanded that Dunphy “work naked, in a bikini, or in short shorts with an American flag on them that he bought for her.

“When they were apart, they would often work remotely via videoconference, and … Giuliani almost always asked her to remove her clothes on camera. He often called from his bed, where he was visibly touching himself under a white sheet.”

That allegation echoes a famous scene from a 2020 film, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, in which Giuliani appears to reach into his trousers and touch himself while on a bed, in the company of a young female actor he thinks is a reporter from Kazakhstan.

Describing what Dunphy says happened the first time Giuliani initiated sexual contact, the suit includes a still from the Borat film. Dunphy alleges Giuliani coerced her into oral sex.

The suit also says Dunphy had access to Giuliani’s private emails, including messages “from, to, or concerning President Trump, the Trump family (including … Donald Trump Jr, Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump) [and] Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner”.

Dunphy also claims to have had access to communications with “presidential candidates for Ukraine [and] President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of Turkey”.

The US press will focus on the sex part of this story which is ugly but if she has tapes and emails this is not a good thing for Tiny.
