That afternoon, she joined her fellow senator from New York, Chuck Schumer, and also Charles Rangel, the Democratic congressman from New York, and boarded a FEMA plane to New York, where they got into a helicopter, which flew to Ground Zero and circled above the smoking, twisted wreckage. Clinton described it “like a scene out of Dante’s Inferno.”

Deadbeat Rudy’s lawyers have dropped him as a client and filed a lawsuit against him today for $1.3 Million in unpaid legal fees.

Former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani was sued Monday by his onetime lawyers in a lawsuit that says he owes $1.36 million in unpaid legal fees. Robert Costello, a partner at the law firm Davidoff Hutcher & Citron, sued Giuliani in New York Supreme Court. He and his law firm are seeking payment of legal services that Giuliani has received since 2019.

According to the lawsuit, Costello’s firm began providing Giuliani legal services around November 2019, which continued through July of this year. The lawsuit said legal services provided by the firm included early representation in what became the election interference cases in Georgia and Washington, D.C.

The law firm alleges that it billed Giuliani directly for fees and expenses totaling more than $1.5 million, and that Giuliani only paid $214,000. NBC News has reached out to a Giuliani spokesperson for comment. Earlier this month, NBC News reported that former President Donald Trump hosted a fundraiser at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, to help a legal defense fund for Giuliani, who is among Trump's 18 co-defendants indicted in Georgia for alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in the state. All 19 defendants have pleaded not guilty to the charges against them.

Earlier this year, he was sued in a wide-ranging $10 million lawsuit filed by Noelle Dunphy, a woman whose allegations included Giuliani harassing her and discussing the selling of presidential pardons after her hiring in 2019. Giuliani has denied the claims. In July, a disciplinary board for the DC Bar Association recommended that Giuliani be stripped of his law license over alleged "malicious and meritless claims" he made to undermine the 2020 election. A spokesman for Giuliani at the time said the move was "part of a larger effort to deny President Trump effective counsel by persecuting Mayor Giuliani." Last month, a federal judge found Giuliani liable for defaming two election workers in boosting Trump’s stolen election claims.

But for us, it's a very nice little roundup of Roodles World. You did this all to yourself, Roodles. I remember him SCREAMING in 2016 at T****'s rallies, it was clear he had lost his mind. Then his Ukraine adventures. I forget which conservative wrote it, but they said his main priority now should be that he doesn't die in jail. Thoughts and prayers, Roodles.

Plaintiffs weighing next steps.

Donald Trump’s former lawyer and former mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani will be required to appear in person for the duration of his trial on damages for defaming Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. Judge Beryl Howell has set the trial to begin on December 11.

Judge Howell previously found Giuliani automatically liable for defaming the two Fulton Country, Georgia election workers after Giuliani resisted turning over discovery in the case. The trial is to determine how much Giuliani must pay Freeman and Moss for defaming them after the 2020 election.

As seen in the docket text below, on December 11 at 9 am, both “parties are directed to appear in Courtroom 26A for jury selection… with plaintiffs and defendant present in person for the duration of the trial.”

Giuliani’s Drinking, Long a Fraught Subject, Has Trump Prosecutors’ Attention
The former mayor’s drinking has become an investigative subplot in Donald Trump’s federal case over 2020 election interference. But long before that, friends had grown deeply concerned.

Rudolph W. Giuliani had always been hard to miss at the Grand Havana Room, a magnet for well-wishers and hangers-on at the Midtown cigar club that still treated him like the king of New York.

In recent years, many close to him feared, he was becoming even harder to miss.

For more than a decade, friends conceded grimly, Mr. Giuliani’s drinking had been a problem. And as he surged back to prominence during the presidency of Donald J. Trump, it was getting more difficult to hide it.

On some nights when Mr. Giuliani was overserved, an associate discreetly signaled the rest of the club, tipping back his empty hand in a drinking motion, out of the former mayor’s line of sight, in case others preferred to keep their distance. Some allies, watching Mr. Giuliani down Scotch before leaving for Fox News interviews, would slip away to find a television, clenching through his rickety defenses of Mr. Trump.

Even at less rollicking venues — a book party, a Sept. 11 anniversary dinner, an intimate gathering at Mr. Giuliani’s own apartment — his consistent, conspicuous intoxication often startled his company.
