Perhaps he thinks he actually did succumb to the grocery store stunt. Secondly, if Vladimir Putin received a little love tap like the one Giuliani got it would only have made Fox News if it came from that RINO, Melania.<\/p>\n<p>It isn&#8217;t surprising that Giuliani is upset with Fox News. He has already been <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=50785\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">banned from the network because he wouldn&#8217;t stop lying about election fraud<\/a><\/strong> on behalf of Trump. Fox is apparently sensitive about that sort of deceit since they are being sued for billions of dollars by two voting systems companies that they defamed &#8211; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48869\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dominion<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48462\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Smartmatic<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Giuliani is named as a defendant in both lawsuits. And it can&#8217;t be helpful to his defense that he is making up stories about being attacked. Not that his credibility wasn&#8217;t already shot long ago. Now he is whining that a harmless, albeit non-consensual, touching is akin to an actual shooting. This is what it&#8217;s come to.
