      “I did the same thing that you’re doing now for 10 years. I protected Mr. Trump for 10 years. The more people that follow Mr. Trump, as I did blindly, are going to follow the same consequences that I’m suffering.” -Michael Cohen

        Everyone knows he’s a narcissistic sociopath who demands absolute loyalty and offers none. But for some reason, there’s a never-ending cycle of people who believe they’re the special exceptions.

            I hate it in movies when the crime boss just casually executes a henchman for, like, giving him cold coffee because I always thought, “Why would you work for this guy when you know he’ll just murder you for no reason whenever he feels like it? So unrealistic!” But I guess it’s not!

    Behold the field in which I grow my fucks. Lay thine eyes upon it and thou shalt see that it is barren.

    Donald Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani has listed a claim against the one-term president over unpaid legal fees in a new bankruptcy filing.

    The ex-New York City mayor includes a “possible claim for unpaid legal fees against Donald J Trump.” in the 26 January filing, which states that the amount is “undetermined.”

    Mr Giuliani filed for bankruptcy last month, days after a federal judge ordered him to “immediately” pay more than $148m to a pair of Georgia election workers a jury determined he defamed.

    The newspaper reported that the former president told his aides that he didn’t want Mr Giuliani to receive “a dime” unless he succeeded in the case, and noted that $340,000 had been paid to Mr Giuliani — through Trump’s Save America PAC — to cover some of his ex-lawyer’s legal debt.

    The filing shows that “Joseph Biden Defamation Action” is also listed for an “undetermined” amount after Mr Giuliani sued the president in October after he used the phrase “Russian pawn” during a presidential debate in 2020.

    But the record also shows the fund has spent more than $500,000 on his legal fees, leaving $180,000 in cash on hand.
