        I think that’s kinda just his face. Maybe that’s what it looks like after several years of letting Trump slap him with his stumpy li’l shroom.

          He could getting the start of a booze/alcoholic nose. People like him probably need to be in a constant state of inebriation to do and say the things they do.

          See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and try and start an insurrection, like it’s something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense then that.

          Yeah, I remember trying to start an insurrection. Cocaine is a helluva drug.

    Ray Stallings Smith III, 5’11" 195 lbs

    Rudolph Giuliani, 5’11" 230 lbs

    Sidney Powell, 6’0" 170 lbs

    Jenna Ellis, 5’7" 130 lbs

    Mark Meadows, 6’1" 240 lbs

    Harrison Floyd, 5’11" 210 lbs

    8 more traitors to go, less than 24 hours left.

      Where’d you get those numbers? Someone posted a link yesterday listing Rudy at 5’9, 180 lbs

      https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/23/trump-lawyer-rudy-giuliani-to-surrender-in-georgia-election-case.html

      230lbs seems more likely. The only thing that might be .180 is his BAC.

        All numbers come right off the Fulton Jails site. Just search for him (first name = Rudolph) and you can confirm. http://justice.fultoncountyga.gov/PAJailManager/default.aspx

      Never heard of him before but, as y’all may have suspected, Harrison is a real genius. He called the cops on the FBI agents serving him:

      Floyd also told the police officers that when he saw one of the men had a gun, he “almost went for it” and added that after putting down his daughter who he was with, he slammed his apartment door behind the two agents so he could “get a weapon” from his kitchen, the affidavit said.
      According to the affidavit, Floyd told the officers that the agents “were lucky I didn’t have a gun on me, because I would have shot” one of them.

        He also was not released on bond today. Meaning, he’s sitting in a cell for the foreseeable future in Fulton. Unclear if he was not offered a bail deal (because of his prior FBI experience) or what. He does seem to be a danger to the public. But the 18 other people do as well.

      it’s according to georgia law as far as how much they need to charge you for bail. it’s predetermined off of the crime and income and danger to society if i recall correctly.
