“While crime in Arizona is at an all-time high the Arizona Secretary of State’s office felt it was a good use of resources to send multiple agents across the country to storm an 80th birthday party like it was Normandy,” said Caroline Wren, a top GOP consultant, who hosted the birthday party at her home.

Ridiculous. It’s well known that Arizona had been looking for him for days if not weeks. He could have let them know where he was at any point before the party.

Rudy did this to himself.

Besides: this "crime at an all time high" fearmongering is disgusting.

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 35 points 1 month ago

How do you know when Republicans are lying?

Their lips move.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 month ago

Especially when it's been declining for more than a decade (I think even longer). Anomalies during pan times should be considered in context of world events.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

They served an indictment to a criminal. Is she talking about crime at an all-time high because she is mad that they are stopping Repubs while they are on a streak?

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

She's just saying she knows crime is high in Arizona because you don't even have to go outside your home to find criminals. They're right there next to you at the party you threw for them.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

The top GOP consultant needs to be reminded that what Roodles did was one of the very worst crimes. Just because he's a rich white Republican doesn't mean it isn't.

[-] ripcord@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Also, it's a lie that crime in Arizona is at an all-time high.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 117 points 1 month ago

I'm so tired of these fucks painting themselves as the victims whenever they face consequences for their malfeasance.

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It’s how it works if you’re in Trump’s circle. right wing media minimizes factual reporting, then extensively reports on the sensationalist witch hunt against the Republican victim. It looks like nonsense from the outside, but it’s very effective at maintaining their narrative with Republicans.

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 92 points 1 month ago

When Rudy was mayor of New York he proudly arrested homeless folks and subway fare jumpers. Surely such a dedicated protector of the law isn't averse to being treated that way himself?

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 72 points 1 month ago

I guess you probably shouldn't taunt the process servers.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 58 points 1 month ago

Not finding him would have resulted in an arrest warrant, not a dismissal. How does a former lawyer not know that?

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You know what they call law students that are at the bottom of the class?

Lawyers.

[-] EisFrei@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

He does know, but needs something for the masses to parrot

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

You can know for a fact he is bottom of the barrel skillwise because Donald hired him.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 month ago

Ted Cruz blathered on about why we should sign the Paris Agreement when Paris is in another country. It's all performative for their uncurious base who they know will never cross-reference what they say. Cruz went to an Ivy, btw. He's not stupid. He's a smart, grifting, dishonest asshole.

[-] enleeten@discuss.online 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Deadly Teddly has other reasons for rejecting extradition treaties.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 28 points 1 month ago

This ... can't be real?

[-] DBNinja@lemm.ee 33 points 1 month ago

Some quick googling looks like this is real. Looks like it was this deleted post.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 16 points 1 month ago

I'm surprised he didn't say anything about writing "Not entered into contract" on it at a 45 degree angle with red pen.

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

I'm thinking Rudy got very drunk at his party, which should come as a surprise to no one, and decided to post that. Then, after he got served, his lawyers made him delete it.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

FA, FO

[-] Spitzspot@lemmings.world 30 points 1 month ago

They finally lifted the right rock.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 25 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'd serve him papers then oopsie his cake onto the floor.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 18 points 1 month ago

I THREW IT ON THE GROUND

[-] bazus1@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I THREW THE REST OF THE CAKE TOO

[-] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 month ago

WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD, JACKASS!

I'M AN ADULT

[-] TheJims@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Is there anyone in trumps orbit that isn’t a complete sleaze ball?

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

Literally no. Donald is so overtly a corrupt sack of shit criminal you have to have been deliberately ignoring reality to want to get near him. Once near, either you find out he is a skeeze and leave, or the world finds out you are a skeeze when you stay.

[-] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Yep, and this is all also applies to the Republican party as a whole

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

It's a mindfuck that Rudy is 2 years younger than the president.

[-] iknowitwheniseeit@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 1 month ago

The older people get the greater apparent differences of people who are the same age.

[-] Ballistic_86@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

I guess I’m glad he didn’t go missing forever. He can face his crimes, sweat all that hair dye down his face again and again

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 month ago

Got 'im! If I recall they only hade about four more days before he's due in court. Please tell me they were attached to the outfit of a stripper who came out of an oversized cake.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

Should have set gene parmesan on the case

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

He could have chosen to do it more privately but he acted just like the criminal he is and avoided it.

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

This makes me warm and fuzzy. Good way to start the weekend!

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Weird how long it took to find Roodles.

[-] kingshrubb@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Why would you throw a birthday party if you are avoiding "being served". Go camping or something.

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 4 points 1 month ago

Happy fuckin' birthday Rudy you pos fuck.

[-] Stupidmanager@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Rudy, Want to know why it’s not publicized for others who are famous? No one gives a shit. Being famous is not a ticket to do whatever you want. You too shall be prosecuted when found guilty of the crime.

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Stain blocking ceiling paint? lol what. My only thought is from cigars. Man this guy is such a little weasel. I thought he was broke af too. I’m glad they keep on him, especially in Arizona
