Looks like poor Rudy can't find a GA licensed lawyer to represent him. Well, since he's announced that he's 'flat broke' it's no wonder. Not to mention being a lying scumbag.

is there such a thing as a court assigned lawyer? or am I mixing up my tv dramas?

Yes, we're fine, thank you for asking. I'm in the northern part of the state and we only caught a 'wee bit' of the weather as the storm passed to the east of us. My cousin in So Cal's patio got flooded but it didn't get into her house.

Your question did catch me a bit. I'm going through some possibly serious health struggles at the moment and I wondered "How on earth does she know about that??" before it hit me you were talking about Hurricane Hilary!

Sorry to hear about that Across. I do hope it resolves itself Flowers

@TheSilveryPussycat

I'm sorry, but I don't remember any specifics from your 10 yr ago thread. I hope I was helpful. You obvs don't need to post any 'reminders' here, suffice it to say that I hope your path smooths out soon.

@Roussette

Thanks for your good wishes, both of you.

To all,

As far as my health goes, at this point I've been diagnosed with hemochromatosis (say that 3 times fast!). I'm trying not to consult 'Dr Google' too much because all that usually does is scare the shit out of one. But my understanding is that it's a manageable condition once they get my iron (which is off the charts) under control. I see a specialist next month. I'm also undergoing liver tests but the GI doctor doesn't appear to be panicking about it.

We've had to reschedule our holiday from October to next Spring as the treatment (basically being 'bled') can take 6 months or so.

It's always something, isn't it?

Roussette · 23/08/2023 16:32

Oh yes Across there is always something however much you look after yourself!

Rudy Giuliani says he'll turn himself in to authorities in Georgia today

Doofus is expected to travel to Georgia on Thursday afternoon and plans to surrender to authorities at the Fulton County jail on Thursday night.

AcrossthePond55 · 23/08/2023 17:15

The 1st GOP debate is tonight. Apparently Doofus has given an interview with Fucker Carlson which will be released online at the same time as the debate. He just can't stand the attention being turned from him for any reason, can he?

@DuncinToffee I wonder if Rudy finally found a GA licensed attorney to represent him. And thanks for the good wishes.

TheSilveryPussycat · 23/08/2023 18:51

Ooh, sorry but I'm looking forward to Trump's interview Blush

I looked up the NHS webUKsite, and found this link to a UK charity, if it's of any help?
Haemochromatosis UK

TheSilveryPussycat · 23/08/2023 18:51

damn it ...the NHS website...

Carlson making inflammatory statements to save trump the bother
Guardian-
Earlier in the 46-minute interview broadcast on Twitter, Carlson asked Trump if he is concerned “the left”, after impeaching and then indicting him, would try to kill him.

BruceAndNosh · 24/08/2023 08:03

I think that's a pretty disgusting question from Carlson

BREAKING: Donald Trump suffers the worst humiliation of his life as bookies and gambling outlets begin taking bets on what his weight will be when jail officials weigh him at the Fulton County jail Georgia.

The details are just too juicy to pass up...

you can bet on Trump's recorded weight with the line currently sitting at over/under 278.5 pounds.

For reference, when he was president his physician claimed that the infamously unhealthy Trump weighed 244 pounds. At the time many cried foul, unable to square the professed weight with Trump's morbidly obese appearance.

When he is booked and his mugshot is taken, the weight will be released. This is a particularly painful indignity for Trump because he spends much of his time fat shaming his enemies, from Chris Christie to Rosie O'Donnell.

In recent weeks, Trump has seemed particularly sensitive about his weight and has complained that Fox News only uses unflattering photos of him "especially the big ‘orange’ one with my chin pulled way back."

So, which bet would you take? Over or under 278.5 pounds?

The amazing thing is that he seems so healthy for someone with such an unhealthy lifestyle.

Some wag on X twitter asked whether he'd have to remove his shoe lifts before his height is measured

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 24/08/2023 12:21

How tall was it that he claimed to be?

AcrossthePond55 · 24/08/2023 13:40

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 24/08/2023 12:21

How tall was it that he claimed to be?

He had his WH physician report his height as 6' 3"
He allegedly reported his height @ the Manhattan booking as 6' 2"
'Experts' viewing photos of him next to others say he's probably 6' 0" - 6' 1"

I just say he's a small, small man but that has nothing to do with his physical height.

DuncinToffee · 24/08/2023 14:21

He has just changed lawyers again, from Findlings to Sadow....

Doofus now in Fulton Co jail going through arrest & booking.

I hope they release his mug shot!

AcrossthePond55 · 25/08/2023 01:53

He does NOT look like a happy camper! Tee hee hee!

TheSilveryPussycat · 25/08/2023 02:05

Just been watching CNN. Saw Doofus' plane waiting to take off, then taking off, on the TV, while tracking it on FlightRadar. Pleased to say that he had to wait for about 4 scheduled planes to take off first.

The actual mugshot, which CNN put up while I was watching, somehow doesn't look to me as if it's compliant with the regs, not that I actually know what they are! CNN wondered out loud whether he had been practising his pose Grin. His hair gleams, he's holding his face at an odd angle, and the whole thing has a sort of photoshopped look about it. But again, what do I know?
