  • Giuliani headed from his Manhattan apartment to his office in midtown 
  • His legal issues have worsened after election workers sued him a second time 
  • Since the $148million verdict, he has doubled down on his election fraud claims  

A defiant Rudy Giuliani headed to his New York office on Tuesday, less than a week after he was ordered to pay $148 million in damages for defaming two Georgia election workers.

DailyMail.com spotted the 79-year-old ‘America’s Mayor’ walking in Manhattan after doubling down on the claims that have left him on the precipice of financial disaster.

When asked about his thoughts on the verdict in Georgia he again said he would appeal, mirroring a statement he made last week.

The former prosecutor and New York mayor is staring down the prospect of lawyers going after all his assets to pay off the damages awarded against him on Friday night.

On Monday night, he was sued again by Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ‘Shaye’ Moss for spreading the same ‘lies’ about the 2020 election they successfully sued him for.

They claimed their lives were made hell and they couldn’t leave their homes after he accused them of harvesting ballots to try and rig the vote for Joe Biden. 

But an unfazed Giuliani said in an interview that he stands behind his allegations about Freeman and Moss, and claimed the verdict was a result of the ‘fascist system run by the Biden regime’.

He told Newsmax’s Rob Schmitt on Monday night: ‘They are suing me in order to lie to them. I’m sorry, I can’t do it.

‘If I showed you the evidence right now … people would see that what I said was absolutely true and there’s support for it.’

He also said the judge decided he was guilty ‘not based on any evidence but based on the fact that I didn’t turn over some financial documents’. 

The interview came out just hours after Freeman and Moss’s second lawsuit was filed.

‘Defendant Giuliani continues to spread the very same lies for which he has already been held liable,’ according to the new suit.

‘(His) statements coupled with his refusal to agree to refrain from continuing to make such statements, make clear that he intends to persist in his campaign of targeted defamation and harassment. It must stop,’ according to the new filing.

On Friday, after the ruling came down, Giuliani insisted everying he said about Moss and Freeman was true.

‘He said his claims ‘were supportable and are supportable today.’

‘It will be reversed so quickly it will make your head spin, and the absurd number that just came in will help that actually,’ Giuliani said.

Giuliani declined to testify in his own defense, yet insisted he was not given the chance to make his case. He also said his claims of cheating were ‘supportable’ – despite there never being any evidence brought forward.

‘I have no doubt that my comments were made and they were supportable and are supportable today,’ he said. 

‘I just did not have an opportunity to present the evidence that we offered.’ 

He said he didn’t testify because it ‘didn’t seem like it was going to do much to persuade anybody.’ 

The latest suit came after U.S. District Court Judge Beryl Howell raised concerns about how to police potential future comments by Giuliani – and as former President Donald Trump called the award against Giuliani ‘sad.’ 

The bombshell verdict dealt a catastrophic blow to the former New York mayor and was vindication for election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, who said his allegations caused a flood of threats that made their life hell

‘I think it’s so sad, what’s happened to Rudy,’ Trump told reporters after being asked about the situation by DailyMail.com during a campaign briefing by staff members in West Palm Beach.

‘He’s a great patriot he’s the greatest mayor in the history of New York. I think it’s a very, very unfair situation,’ Trump said during a drop-in appearance. 

‘I’m not going to comment on any potential upcoming legal matters, but I will say this—the Rudy Giuliani you see today is the same man who took down the Mafia, cleaned up New York City, lifted hundreds of thousands of people out of poverty, and comforted the nation—and world—following the terrorist attacks of September 11th,’ said Giuliani political advisor Ted Goodman.
