WASHINGTON — Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was disbarred in Washington on Thursday, months after he lost his law license in New York for pursuing false claims that then-President Trump made about his 2020 presidential election loss.
The brief ruling from the appeals court in Washington, D.C., said Giuliani did not respond to an order to explain why he should not be disbarred in the district after he lost his law license in New York last summer.
Ted Goodman, a spokesperson for Giuliani, called the decision “an absolute travesty and a total miscarriage of justice.”
“Members of the legal community who want to protect the integrity of our justice system should immediately speak out against this partisan, politically motivated decision,” Goodman said in a text message.
The Manhattan appeals court that stripped Giuliani of his law license in July found he repeatedly made false statements about Trump’s 2020 election loss.
Giuliani had argued that he believed the claims he was making on behalf of the Trump campaign were true.

“repeatedly made false statements about Trump’s 2020 election loss”
Did somebody prove them false? I don’t recall that. Was there an investigation that proved them false?
Or are they, as usual, just declaring them false, unproven, and debunked without any proof?

How is this even possible... So that means anyone who presses charges over something can lose their license/livelyhood without it going to trial... Complete bs!!

The liberal propaganda rag LA Slimes just outright declares false with no proof.
Classic fake news.

I hate what they did to Rudy. It looks like the various bar associations are wholly owned subsidiaries if the DNC.

Whenever you hear or see the media use the very non journalistic style sheet terms “false” , “discredited” , “debunked” , “disinformation” or “lies” you can bet they are engaging in propaganda to mau mau the public into disbelieving what they are seeing happen right before their very eyes.

Not “false”, simply unproven in court...

If you look deep enough, you will find Obama sycophant’s behind it. Just like in New York and Georgia. /spit

Reason #287 why lawyers are hated. 99% of them are dishonest.

The law schools will need to be reformed and the Bars reigned in.

So if a lawyer pushes false claims that their client wasn’t a murderer (when he in fact was), they can be disbarred now? Would kinda put a dent in the entire law industry.

Exactly.
Where have these claims been proven false, by any legitimate investigation?
Not just what gov’t hacks and the LYING media may say.

If attorneys now get disbarred for “disinformation”, how will ANY Defense Attorney ever work a single day in their lives?
