Twice-indicted Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani is facing bankruptcy and trials, as convicted Trump aide Steve Bannon heads to prison in two weeks – both men facing major legal consequences for efforts to steal the 2020 election. Vanity Fair’s Molly Jong-Fast and attorney Maya Wiley discuss the developments with MSNBC’s Ari Melber.
A judge has dismissed Rudy Giuliani's bankruptcy case, nearly seven months after the disgraced lawyer filed for Chapter 11 protection. In a decision on Friday, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane cited a list of factors to support the dismissal, including that remaining in Chapter 11 would “erode much, if not all, of the value of the estate” due to Giuliani’s lack of cooperation, which he noted is unlikely to change if a trustee were appointed.
Giuliani filed for bankruptcy in December after the judgment in Freeman and Moss’ defamation case was handed down, and bankruptcy protection prevented them from immediately collecting the money. But his bankruptcy case did not go smoothly. Giuliani’s creditors accused him of using bankruptcy to avoid paying the money he owes and expressed deep frustration at what they characterized as attempts to obfuscate his assets.
