New court filings in a defamation lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani show the promoters of the election fraud narrative after Donald Trump lost the presidency failed to do basic vetting of the claims they were touting – and didn’t see such vetting as necessary.

    It’s so hard for me to grasp that all these people would make these insane claims solely due to their affection for Donald Trump of all fucking people. How on earth did he manage to pied-piper these dipshits so effectively.

    Your honor, I’d like to submit to the court a motion that the defendants knew their claims were false in accordance with No Shit v Sherlock, 1894.

    So because Guliani did some good things one time he shouldn’t be in trouble for ruining these women’s lives? Fuck that he knew what he was doing was wrong, he knew there wasn’t any evidence of voter fraud. And he called out these women by name.

    ‘We have a lot of theories but no evidence’

    So they didn’t even vet the theories…and Rudy was just “repeating what he was told” because that’s a good defense. But they’re saying this lawsuit was only filed to embarrass Rudy.
