Rudy Giuliani is pleading for cash in the form of public donations, claiming he cannot afford to feed himself as a result of the $148 million judgment against him for defaming two Georgia election workers following Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 presidential election. The former New York City mayor has asserted twice in the last week that he’s at risk of going hungry due to financial troubles.

“Wilkie Farr Law Firm is filled with a distorted left wing hate and vitriol,” Giuliani posted to X, formerly Twitter, just after midnight on Tuesday. “Judge Liman doesn’t seem to know the exemptions. They have seized all my money which wasn’t much. I need legal representation against these evil people. I can’t buy food.”

Attorneys from Wilkie Farr represent Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea ArShaye “Shaye” Moss, the Georgia election workers who were targeted by Giuliani’s false claims of election fraud and were awarded the astronomical judgment from Giuliani in December 2023. U.S. District Court Judge Lewis J. Liman is the Trump-appointed jurist presiding over Giuliani’s case in the Southern District of New York.

Giuliani had previously levied similar attacks on the law firm and judge with a Sunday morning post to X. “Wilkie Farr Law firm and Judge Liman are trying to inhibit me from making a living,” Giuliani wrote. “They seized my measly checking account so I can’t buy food. Help me fight.”
