Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Thursday in the wake of a $148 million civil court ruling and a mountain of unpaid legal bills.
Giuliani, 79, estimates he currently owes $153 million — an amount that will likely balloon due to several other pending lawsuits and when millions of dollars in pending legal bills are factored in, according to the Manhattan federal court filing.
The $148 million settlement was the biggest financial blow to Giuliani, but he also owes the IRS more than $700,000 and more than $260,000 to New York State tax authorities, according to the bankruptcy filing, first reported by Bloomberg News.

They are working to destroy one of the real heroes of 9-11.
The process is the punishment.
What is the interest rate on the $960k due in taxes?
Puts on display for all to see that the democrats will stop at nothing, moral, ethical or legal, to destroy Trump and anyone perceived as a supporter of him, in any way. It’s going to get uglier. They are taking out all the stops to win, given they know their generation of lies, fraud, deceit, betrayal and treason that they’ve been an active participant in, is exposed to the world to see. Reaction to it, will be telling.
Meanwhile...
Just like “Mr Smith goes to Washington”, “we’re either busted or we’re bigger than ever!”.........
WWG1WGA!
Rudy Giuliani righted NYC.
Millions of New Yorkers lived better lives for many years.
Rudy lists Robert Hunter Biden as a creditor.
Disgraceful. Shameful.
It would be appropriate if Pres. Trump helped alleviate Giuliani’s situation. Not only because of fact that Rudy’s work on Trump’s behalf got him into this mess, but also because Rudy’s work at returning NYC to pre 70s social and economic climate helped Trump to decide to invest more heavily in NYC real estate development. The financial gain from those investments led to Atlantic City casinos and his notoriety led to “ You’re Fired.” The rest is history. Trump owes Rudy.
Meanwhile, someone from the deep state will whisper into a congressman or judge’s ear and say...”This could be you if you cause any problems”.
Section 523(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code makes debts nondischargeable if they arise from "willful and malicious injury by the debtor to another entity or to the property of another entity."
Hunter Biden Listed As Creditor On Rudy Giuliani’s Bankruptcy Filing
Perhaps POTUS45 can house Rudy and his wife in a Trump hotel for the rest of their lives.
And send a message to other lawyers who defend people the left wants in jail.
Sad but true. Same with Target, Disney, pro sports, etc.
Cleaned out organized crime in lower NY State.
Got NYC to be livable and likable by stamping out street crime and cleaning up the city.
Helped save and unite the city as Mayor during the horror of 9/11
Stayed a loyal supporter with others ran from Trump and did what he could in support.
Democrats Destroying America -— Never Forgive.
We just get to use it until the government decides we are through -- and they come and take it all away>
That's anybody. You and me both.
And we want to spread this democracy all around the globe??
Give me a break!
I’m sure Trump agrees and wants to make Rudy’s problems go away - but figuring out the best logistics and timing will not be easy.
For example, Giuliani is no doubt appealing the rulings against him - so the question is, if Trump simply cut him a check to cover his legal expenses and back taxes - could that negatively affect his appeal? Could it negatively affect Trump’s own court cases?
After all, the bogus allegations against Trump and his lawyers have an element of collusion - and the news of Trump paying Giuliani’s bills would almost certainly be twisted into some kind of quid pro quo scandal.
Perhaps the best thing President Trump can do for all the victims of this Democrat persecution is win back the Presidency, and pardon them all.
