‘You said a $10,000 bond?’: Judge tells a rambling Giuliani that he must pay up after ducking summons before pleading not guilty in Arizona fake electors case

The judge overseeing the Arizona fake electors case on Tuesday flatly rejected efforts by Rudy Giuliani to disparage the grand jurors who indicted him as political actors solely chosen for their party affiliation.

In August, the former New York City mayor filed a motion in Maricopa County Superior Court seeking certain grand jury information premised on the idea the grand jurors themselves were, essentially, little more than members of a kangaroo court out to get him.

That argument was thoroughly rubbished by the court.

“The underlying claim that formulates the request is based upon pure speculation and abject conjecture,” Judge Bruce Cohen wrote in a two-page order. “He claims that there is concern that the grand jurors that served on the grand jury that indicted Defendant Giuliani were selected based upon their political party affiliation. Yet he alleges not one scintilla of information that would support this claim.”
