TWGB: The Quality of Mercy is Priced at $2 Million

 

So, lawsuit against Giuliani just got really graphic, and if you want to read the whole thing, I recommend having a sick bag or bucket handy because the parts where he emotionally and physically abuses a female employee is nasty and I wish my read on him didn't feel validated. She says she has texts and emails and even recordings of his abusiveness and more.

But the part I notice is the claim that she can validate that Giuliani was asking $2 million for pardons, because this wasn't new. It's just amazing we have validation now. Also, it appears that as early as 2019, Trump was scared enough of Dark Brandon that he was going to have a plan for losing, but claiming the election was stolen anyway. 

And if that doesn't remind me of anything?   

Yeah. We knew. It was always about fuckery. Undermining democracy. Damaging what makes our democracy effective and unique. 


But that pardons claim, the one that isn't exactly new? It is very illegal. That's a very bad bit of bribery and a lot of abuse of power if the pardons were also about people doing things to "help" Trump stay in power. Like using one's congressional votes, etc. This makes me think of all the congressional little helpers like Scott Perry who might have asked for pardons but were--priced out? Or who refused to pay out of the principle that they thought they were all in that 1776 business together? And surely, good will and loyalty would provide? 

Wow. After getting priced out of pardons, they stayed loyal. Because why? Trump's return? That is some faith. I mean, wow and damn and yikes, but what a cult like faith. 

Because Trump never got extensive with those pardons because there would be a record, and then you would know who was directed to do what. He wasn't going on the record to absolve his minions, are you mad? They violated whatever laws they did for the joy of serving, just like his very expensive pro-bono lawyer--

Who might have just stuck him with an investigation into a serious bad bribery claim. 

Also regarding Giuliani if these claims are to be believed is immoral scum and a horrific person and you know the thing where you read a story in the tabloids and go "As if?" I did the opposite of that and it all kind of made sense and while Dunphy is a stupid for working for this man and being open to some of his bullshit from the jump, no one deserves what she describes. 

He is deranged and unwell and toxic and was working for Trump. Very purposefully. And I draw the conclusions from that that make sense to me.

Rudy Ghouliani, everyone!

America's Mayor of Sexual Abuse

If only Elaine in Seinfeld had injected Rudy right in his veins with the "non-fat" yogurt and caused him to have a cholesterol induced coronary back in 1993.

He's an example of the sexual aspect of would-be "strongmen", like Gaddafi or Berlusconi or Trump--everything comes down to powerplays. The harrowing account describes Giuliani wanting oral while on the phone to feel powerful "like Bill Clinton". It is easy to understand how a procurer like Jeffrey Epstein ingratiated himself to people with this mindset of other human bodies as being for one's use.
