There is a price to pay for lying about election fraud

 It is a soap opera that may finally be reaching an end. Ever since losing his bid for re-election in 2020, Donald Trump has publicly insisted there was fraud, when in truth there was none to be had anywhere. In recent days, three of his lawyers have had to face the consequences of going along with the whining & crying of the Oldest Baby in America.

John Eastman, for example, is facing disbarment in California. L. Lin Wood voluntarily surrendered his license earlier this week, rather than run the risk of disbarment.

And, then, there is Rudy Giuliani.

The man who was once "America's Mayor" more than 20 years ago has clearly become "America's Disgrace", and now faces disbarment in Washington, where his license had already been suspended, as it is in New York. In an interview unrelated to this matter earlier this week, Giuliani insisted he could solve the case of a bag of cocaine that mysteriously turned up at the White House. While other GOPer idiots are quick to accuse Hunter Biden of being the owner of the bag, Giuliani isn't exactly following suit. The GOPers, of course, are trying to distract from the myriad of legal issues facing Trump. As if that's going to do any good.

Giuliani insisted on peddling lies in a number of places. Not just Washington, but in Georgia as well, all in service to an insecure man-child unaccustomed to losing. Let's not stop with Washington. Giuliani should follow Wood's lead, and surrender his license, own his situation, and accept the fact he was wrong all this time.

But, we know he won't, unless he's left with no choice. He's making Wood look like a Rhodes scholar by comparison.
