New York Suspends Rudy Giuliani Law License over Election Fraud Claims

Joel B. Pollak 24 Jun 2021

The State of New York has suspended Rudy Giuliani’s law license over his claims of fraud in the 2020 election, according to a court decision released Thursday.

The decision states:


--- Quote ---    Respondent was admitted to practice as an attorney and counselor at law in the State of New York on June 25, 1969, under the name Rudolph William Giuliani. He maintains a law office within the First Judicial Department.

    For the reasons that follow, we conclude that there is uncontroverted evidence that respondent communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and the Trump campaign in connection with Trump’s failed effort at reelection in 2020. These false statements were made to improperly bolster respondent’s narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client. We conclude that respondent’s conduct immediately threatens the public interest and warrants interim suspension from the practice of law, pending further proceedings before the Attorney Grievance Committee.

The ruling stated that Giuliani’s suspension is “interim,” and that his statements about election fraud were made “knowingly.” Though he has First Amendment rights, the court noted, he is also bound by rules of professional conduct.

The state of New York has fully gone to the dark side and there is no legal way to reverse that.

New York ain't alone. And this isn't just the ebb and flow of politics either. These marxist despots do not intend to peacefully cede power - ever.

The specific case was Rudy taking a conservative meme and running with it legally without doing his homework on it. Specifically his actions on Pennsylvania submitting more ballots than were issued or whatever.

It's not just your usual anti-conservative bias, IMO.

Skeeter observed (wisely):
"New York ain't alone. And this isn't just the ebb and flow of politics either. These marxist despots do not intend to peacefully cede power - ever."

Over at TOS there's a poster named "Lurkin' n Loomin" (sp?).
He (she?) has a great tag line, and here it is, worth thinking about:

"Peaceful co-existence with the left is not possible. Stop pretending that it is."

I agree.
What is to be done?
