Re: Rudy Giuliani
Yeah, there were grainy stills, but no video, in February. My point is that the media is treating this like, "Ermagerd! This surprising thing nobody expected or could ever have known about just happened!" When really this is a section c, arts & entertainment, page 10, below the fold, level story.
In short, this irks me. I am irked.

Re: Rudy Giuliani
I wondered that too. I guess that social media/ MSM loves to trick people into clicking with the Breaking News lede.
It's all about the clicks.

He's one of the minor celebrities at Comicon, like the guy* who voices Mario in the video games.
Ha!
*Who, BTW, is delightful and yes I have his autograph. I stood behind a woman with whom he spent a generous amount of time advising her how to break into voice work. I didn't mind.

Geriatric capris!
Seriously, I thought he was wearing white hose like a 1950's nurse, until I realized his legs were just that pale*.

Not content with limiting his wild and outrageous political views to his podcast, Rudy Giuliani got into a screaming match with an unidentified heckler Sunday while marching in a parade.
Giuliani was marching in New York City’s Celebrate Israel Parade behind Mayor Eric Adams on Sunday when an onlooker began to shout at him. Giuliani then stepped to the side to yell back. The beginning of the comments are difficult to discern — it seems like they’re shouting about crime statistics — but Giuliani eventually barks, “Me! I reduced crime, you jackass!”
As the other man continued yelling, Giuliani screamed back, “You are a brainwashed asshole. I am a class act! … You are probably as demented as Biden!” The exchange can be seen in a video posted to Twitter by The Forward’s senior political reporter, Jacob Kornbluh. Shortly after the shouting ended, Giuliani returned to marching in the parade, smiling and waving an Israel flag.

Re: Rudy Giuliani
IIRC, they claim he lied and said he wasn’t a drug addict on a form when he was purchasing a firearm.

Re: Rudy Giuliani
searched and found this. eg no criminal record, just military discharge
POLITICO obtained copies of the Firearms Transaction Record and a receipt for the gun dated Oct. 12, 2018.
Hunter responded “no” to a question on the transaction record that asks, “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?” Five years earlier, he had been discharged from the Navy Reserve after testing positive for cocaine, and he and family members have spoken about his history of drug use.
Lying on the form is a felony, though prosecutions for it are exceedingly rare.

Re: Rudy Giuliani
I don’t see “or have you ever been” on the question. This is 2018, well after he kicked the habit I believe. There’s no there there, is there?
