    Afterward, he told reporters, “I talked to the President [Trump] today. I wish him well.”

    Isn’t that against the terms set by the judge for Trump not to talk to con-conspirators?

    Edit: The typo stays, since it fits.

      From my understanding of the quote, he talked to him before he got booked, so he might not have been subject to the bond’s requirements yet.

    5’9 sounds accurate, but 180 pounds? That seems a bit generous. I bet they just asked him and didn’t bother weighing him.

    I was most interested in his BAC, too bad they didn’t take that.

      Nahh, density makes a big difference. He’s probably a rather weak old man, so therefore doesn’t have all that much non-fat weight.

      On the other side, even basic body builders are obese by BMI standards.

      They did, but the machine caught fire from the fumes.

    “I’m feeling very, very good about it because I feel like I am defending the rights of all Americans, as I did so many times as a United States attorney,” Giuliani said.

    He realizes this is a criminal case, not a rights case, right?

      Rudy is proudly defending every American’s right to be a criminal dickbag. A defeat here would be a loss for assholes everywhere.

        No joke, the NYT article says:

        After his booking, Mr. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, stepped out of an S.U.V. to address a throng of reporters, calling the case “an attack on the American people.” He then made his way to A 2nd Chance Bail Bonds, a business near the jail.

        Man, I sure wouldn’t, even if I was a staunch conservative. He doesn’t seem like someone who pays his bills if he can avoid it.

          I would. Just the slim chance that I get to send a bounty hunter after him would be worth it.

      I was also wondering this since he’s been begging for money for his legal bills.

        Isn’t someone still on the hook for the whole amount if he skips town? My understanding is that you pay the bondsman ten percent and they cover you, but if you blow town they’re on the hook for the whole amount and will go after you.

          This sounds like a special court program, so if they skip, the court goes after them.

        What is the point of a large bail bond if 10% is all that needs to be paid? Why not get rid of that and just set it at whatever 10% is?

    Giuliani was sober when he spoke to reporters as he left his Manhattan apartment earlier Wednesday to fly to Atlanta.

    I legit thought this is what the third bullet point said.

    Are they making them do a proper booking and appear at the arraignment in jail clothes after sitting in a cell for a bit?

    Or is this just more proof they are above the law?

    Apparently he doesn’t have $150,000 sitting around, as he was seen going into a bail bondsmans office.

        Since Georgia has Bail Bondsmen, I don’t believe they “10%” the bails. That’s what the bondsmen are there for. He just “wasted” 15k at the bondsman, since he would have gotten the entire $150,000 back, (minus court costs and fines if found guilty) but he won’t see a dime of that $15,000 he just paid the bondsman.
