Former President Donald Trump released a statement after a New York Appellate Court suspended his former lawyer Rudy Giuliani’s law license today.
In the statement, Trump declared that Giuliani is “Untouchable” and slammed the “Radical left” for doing it to him.
Pennsylvania Democratic Attorney General Josh Shapiro bragged that he was the one who petitioned the court against Giuliani’s license in a tweet.
Shapiro suggested, “You cannot lie in a court of law and get away with it—not even if Trump has you on speed dial.”
“I petitioned the NY court to suspend Rudy Giuliani’s law license, and his disbarment is well-earned,” Shapiro continued.
Shapiro claimed that “His lies have caused serious harm to our democracy,” and added, “Don’t mess with Pennsylvania.”
Many pointed out, however, that Giuliani’s license is merely suspended at this point and that it will require a full hearing for disbarment.

I petitioned the NY court to suspend Rudy Giuliani’s law license, and his disbarment is well-earned. His lies have caused serious harm to our democracy.
Don’t mess with Pennsylvania.
Trump asked in his statement, made through his Save America PAC, “Can you believe that New York wants to strip Rudy Giuliani, a great American Patriot, of his law license because he has been fighting what has already been proven to be a Fraudulent Election?”
“The greatest Mayor in the history of New York City, the Eliot Ness of his generation, one of the greatest crime fighters our Country has ever known, and this is what the Radical Left does to him,” Trump said.
The Daily Mail explained who Ness was:
Trump is comparing Giuliani to Eliot Ness, a Bureau of Prohibition agent in the 1920s and 30s who became famous for helping bring down infamous gangster Al Capone.
Ness also led a famous team of law enforcement agents from Chicago nicknamed The Untouchables and co-wrote an autobiography of the same name.
Trump, who was a lead figure in New York City when Giuliani was Mayor concluded, “All of New York is out of control, crime is at an all-time high—it’s nothing but a Witch Hunt, and they should be ashamed of themselves. TAKE BACK AMERICA!”
