Former New York City Mayor and personal attorney to former President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani was seen smiling in his mugshot after being arrested for a federal investigation into his dealings with Ukraine. Despite the seriousness of the situation, Giuliani claims he is “very, very proud” of what he did.
Giuliani has been under scrutiny for months over his role in attempting to dig up dirt on now-President Joe Biden during the 2020 election. It was reported that he had allegedly worked with Ukrainian officials to smear Biden’s reputation. This led to a federal investigation into Giuliani and his associates.
On April 28th, Giuliani was arrested on multiple charges including conspiracy, false statements, and wire fraud. He was released on a $100,000 bond and is now awaiting trial.
After having his mugshot taken at the FBI’s New York office, Giuliani emerged with a smile on his face. When asked about his reaction to the photo during an interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, he said: “I am very proud of what I did. I am not going to be afraid of bending the law in order to do it.”
Giuliani’s statement has raised eyebrows, as he seems to be openly admitting to breaking the law. However, he claims that his efforts were done in the name of “justice” and defending Trump.
The former mayor also addressed the charges against him, stating that they are politically motivated and a way for the Biden administration to silence him. He believes that this is an attack on his First Amendment rights and a tactic used by Democrats to discredit Trump.
Despite his confident demeanor, it is important to note that Giuliani is facing serious charges that carry potential prison time. The investigation into his actions with Ukraine continues, and more information may come to light during his trial.
In the meantime, Giuliani’s comments and behavior have sparked a debate on social media. Some believe that he is simply trying to deflect attention from his alleged wrongdoings, while others see him as a martyr for Trump’s cause.
As the legal process unfolds and more details are revealed, it remains to be seen how Giuliani’s actions will impact his reputation and legacy. But one thing is for sure, with this recent statement and mugshot, he has certainly captured the public’s attention once again.
