Jurors deciding how much Giuliani must pay for lies in a Georgia election workers’ case
AP ^ | Dec. 15, 2023 | LINDSAY WHITEHURST AND ALANNA DURKIN RICHER

Posted on 12/19/2023 1:26:59 PM PST by Eagle Forgotten

[Giuliani's] lawyer has argued there is no evidence Giuliani himself encouraged the harassment. Sibley told jurors that right-wing website Gateway Pundit was “patient zero” in spreading the conspiracy theory about the women, and said Giuliani was sued because he is “patient deep pockets.”

“Just because these things happened — and they did happen — doesn’t make my client responsible for them,” Sibley said.

The things Trump said to his supporters were only insurrection if they were lies

There is no "insurrection" even if they *WERE* lies, which they are not.

There was no "insurrection" at all, and the claim that there was *IS* the lie.

I've not seen any debunking of what was seen in those videos. It was obvious what they were doing, they're just going to scream and stomp their feet (and sue in friendly confines) to make people back down from pointing out the obvious.

Everyone who called January 6 an insurrection needs to pay millions for defamation.

How do you know they were “on our side”?

Far left libtards send out death threats daily. Ask any conservative talk show host..

They never go to court. Some get TV gigs.

Rudy was denied the option of presenting a defense by the government.

What we know happened.

1. The night of the election, there was a reported water main break (which turned out to be an overflowed toilet)

2. Everyone was cleared from the Georgia World Congress Center (where the ballots were being counted); this included all election personnel AND party observers (who are required by state law to be present when ballots are counted)

3. The counting was stopped when the building was cleared

4. The ballot counting was scheduled to restart the next morning (8 AM I believe) after the “water main break” had been repaired

5. Not long after the building was cleared, the two women in question reentered the building and started processing ballots; they processed ballot throughout the night and into the morning; what they didn’t know is the building has internal security cameras that run 24 hours a day, so everything they did was filmed

These facts are not in debate.

Rudy’s defense asked for the ballots that were run through the counting machines in the middle of the night (which the county is required by law to keep for several years). His defense was that by examining the ballots he could prove fraud took place.

Lo and behold, Fulton County “lost” the ballots. Nobody knows what happened. It was just a coincidence that the specific set of ballots Rudy needed for his defense (and that would have proved fraud in the presidential election) went missing. Nothing to see here, move along.

Corruption on the part of Fulton County prevented Rudy from presenting a defense.

Correct. Those ‘facts’ are not in debate. They were investigated and found to be incorrect or misinformation or misleading.

” a single false premise - that the 2020 election was not stolen “

Exactly. And that’s where Smith has to start.

Their retort will be that no court declared it so. But they cannot show that any court ever tried or heard evidence.

Excuse us, but no one believes the Georgia State Elections Board at this point, and as far as taking the word of the Brian Kemp GBI and the Chris Wray FBI, that’s hilarious.

Of course.

Everything that doesn’t confirm our position is obviously a scam. Polls, government statistics, media outlets, facts, our eyes.

Remarkably, those same things are correct when they do.

It’s a scam, unless it supports my view of things.

ISN’T THIS the location of the “PLUMBING PROBLEM” no one could back up?

The windows being taped over with brown paper so no one could OBSERVE?

The counting stopping & then “RESTARTING” in the middle of the night?

The APPROVED OBSERVERS NOT allowed to do their jobs???

DELIVERIES VERY LATE OF “BALLOTS”???

And what proof do you have to support your assertions besides incredulity and pejoratives?

What proof do you have o great fuzzerator?

A little publicity blurb from Bradley and Fani and Brian?

You can believe them or your own lyin’ eyes.

Got it.

Nothing.

It’s been three years. No court, no official investigation and no proof has been provided to show the election was stolen. Even a forensic investigation in Arizona by a firm friendly to Trump found more votes for Biden.

Move on.

Having seen the security video it was apparent that they were engaging in a crime.

You might want to read the cyber ninja report given to the Arizona Senate.

It does not exonerate the election, quite the opposite.
