Rudy Giuliani is already facing financial ruin what with bankruptcy, multiple criminal charges against him and the $148 million he owes two Georgia election workers he defamed. But the guy once known as “America’s Mayor” can’t seem to stop humiliating himself.

Now, Giuliani has lost his WABC radio talk show and been suspended because he can’t keep his mouth shut about the “stolen” election.

From Raw Story:

According to The New York Times, "John Catsimatidis, the billionaire who is a major Republican donor and owns the station, said he had made the decision after Mr. Giuliani refused to comply with the policy related to the election after repeated warnings. 'We’re not going to talk about fallacies of the November 2020 election,' Mr. Catsimatidis said in a brief phone interview. 'We warned him once. We warned him twice. And I get a text from him last night, and I get a text from him this morning that he refuses not to talk about it. So he left me no option. I suspended him.”

Giuliani, he added, had to be physically cut off by station employees on Thursday when he tried to discuss the 2020 election. “Look, I like the guy as a person, but you can’t do that. You can’t cross the line,” he said. “My view is that nobody really knows but we had made a company policy. It’s over, life goes on."

The New York Times also notes that the radio show was one of Giuliani's only current sources of income and that his suspension “will also deny him one of his last mainstream public platforms.”

Sad!
