    “Giuliani explained that he fantasized about Wendy Rhoades in the popular television show ‘Billions,’ stating, ‘She wears all that black shit, she’s got a whip and an electric prod,’” Kelton recited from Dunphy’s complaint. “Ms. Dunphy made it clear that she was not interested, and immediately changed the subject, commenting on the mosquitoes outside.”

    As Kelton read, Giuliani sat with his head in his hands and his eyes closed.

    “Okay, I’m going to leave that in,” Moyne ruled, prompting Giuliani to sink back in his chair.

    That article was genuinely a laugh. I hope we get more updates like this, this is just great.

      I want to see a reenactment of this. Either like the Rick & Morty or the NYT Verbatim “What is a photocopier” case.

    Similarly, he “sexualized Margaret Thatcher and wondered about the effect she would have on his penis.”

    I really don’t want that image in my head.

      I didn’t even know it was possible.

      Edit: also-

      Giuliani’s business attorney Adam Katz told the court his client’s comments were “made about everyone under the sun”

      I don’t know that’s the selling point you think it is in a sexual harassment case. “He talks about how every woman makes his penis feel to his employees. See? No big deal!”

    Oh man, that is NOT what I thought it meant when they say “close your eyes and think of England”.

    Well that was quite a read. Margaret Thatcher?? Even I have standards. The Onion couldn’t top this court case.

    The louder he gets, the louder the plausibility.
