    Rudy Giuliani desperately tried fleeing Dominion representatives who served him $1.3 billion lawsuit
    https://www.rawstory.com/rudy-giuliani-lawsuit-2650721999/

    One-time Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani tried desperately to evade representatives from Dominion Voting Systems who were charged with serving him the company's massive $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit.

    The New York Daily News reports that Giuliani managed to hide from Dominion's process servers for several days before they finally caught up with him and delivered Dominion's 107-page lawsuit into his hands.

    "After not responding to requests to waive service, Mr. Giuliani evaded in-person service of process for nearly a week," Dominion attorney Tom Clare told the Daily News. "It took numerous attempts, at both his home and office, before we were able to successfully serve Mr. Giuliani on February 10."

    Clare added that "Mr. Giuliani's repeated false claims about Dominion have been immeasurably damaging; this service of process is one more step forward in our pursuit of justice."

    One source tells the Daily News that Giuliani at one point saw a process server approaching him, which caused him to rush to his car and slam the door as "a process server lunged forward with a bag full of documents."

    Dominion has sued multiple Trump backers, including attorney Sidney Powell and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, for falsely claiming that Dominion voting machines rigged the 2020 presidential election in favor of President Joe Biden.

    Now let's take a little closer look at the story----Leftists are disgusting

    -----Former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne claims Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani had multiple cocktails the night before taking part in an infamous press conference where what appeared to be hair dye ran down his face. However, Byrne wasn't there, citing 'people in the room'----

    If I was Giuliani -- it would preferable that people think I was drunk at that press conference rather than claim I was so completely unhinged while sober.

    Trump insiders turn on each other over ‘Dominion dossier’ as defamation lawsuits loom
    https://www.rawstory.com/trump-dominion/

    Someone on former President Donald Trump's legal team created a "dossier" filled with false allegations leveled at Dominion Voting Systems, and now former Trump officials are pointing fingers at one another to avoid culpability as the company shells out defamation lawsuits against them.

    The Daily Beast reports that the dossier was handed out to state legislators last December to give them talking points about how Dominion supposedly stole the election on behalf of President Joe Biden.

    Although the dossier's author is listed on its cover sheet as Trump campaign legal volunteer Katherine Friess, she's now insisting she had nothing to do with it, and she's pinning the blame on former Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro
    for distributing the report.

    "The difficulty in identifying an author for a report which Trump's team once seemed happy to brag about underscores the extent to which the looming threat of lawsuits by Dominion Voting Systems has cast a pall over veterans of the effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election," reports The Daily Beast. "Lawyers for Dominion have filed $1.3 billion lawsuits against Trump personal lawyer Giuliani, pro-Trump lawyer Sidney Powell, and pillow magnate Mike Lindell for their alleged defamation of the company's voting software, with more suits reportedly on the way."

    Dominion Voting Systems hits conservative networks, Trump ally with $1.6 billion defamation suits
    The voting machine company filed suits against Newsmax, OAN, and Patrick Byrne.
    https://abcnews.go.com/US/dominion-...works-trump-ally-16-billion/story?id=79359685

    Dominion Voting Systems on Tuesday morning filed three $1.6 billion defamation lawsuits against two pro-Trump media networks and an outspoken Trump ally, the latest in a string of suits from the company against those it says pushed false accusations that the company helped rig the 2020 election.

    The complaints were filed against Newsmax and One America News Network, as well as against former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne, who is an outspoken supporter of the former president.

    Newsmax and OAN "helped create and cultivate an alternate reality where up is down, pigs have wings, and Dominion engaged in a colossal fraud to steal the presidency from Donald Trump by rigging the vote," Dominion wrote in each of its complaints against the two networks.

    Specifically, Dominion alleges that the two networks "manufactured, endorsed, repeated, and broadcast a series of verifiably false yet devastating lies about Dominion." OAN, they allege, was motivated by a "quest for profits and viewers" in competition with leading conservative network Fox News. They say both outlets helped spread these lies by promoting other figures such as Byrne, who they say "pushed lies" in collaboration with "other Trump-connected individuals.

    "Byrne continues to stick to his manufactured, inherently improbable, profitable, and demonstrable lies," the complaint against him says.

    The complaints include dozens of statements by the networks and Byrne repeating conspiracy theories about the company, and claiming "evidence" to back them up.

    A Newsmax spokesperson said in a statement, "While Newsmax has not reviewed the Dominion filing, in its coverage of the 2020 Presidential elections, Newsmax simply reported on allegations made by well-known public figures, including the President, his advisors and members of Congress -- Dominion’s action today is a clear attempt to squelch such reporting and undermine a free press."

    Earlier this year, however, Newsmax retracted some its reporting surrounding the 2020 election as part of a settlement after it was sued by a Dominion employee last year. Referring to allegations that Dominion had schemed to rig the election in favor of President Joe Biden, the network reported that it "subsequently found no evidence that such allegations were true."

    OAN and Byrne did not immediately respond to ABC News' request for comment.

    Dominion's latest complaints were filed in Delaware by the Denver-based voting company, which became the subject of false far-reaching conspiracy theories fueled largely by right-wing figures close to then-President Donald Trump as part of efforts to overturn the results of the election

    Dominion has in recent months filed similar billion-dollar defamation suits against other Trump allies for what the company said was their role in pushing the false allegations, including Rudy Giuliani, Trump's personal attorney; Sidney Powell, a member of the Trump's legal team who was later removed; and Mike Lindell, the Trump-aligned pillow magnate.

    All of those parties have denied the allegations against them and have asked a judge to dismiss the lawsuits. Those motions are still pending.

    The litigation comes amid a wave of renewed scrutiny of the 2020 election results, as Democrats in Congress have ramped up their investigation into the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6 by Trump supporters who believed the election was tainted by fraud, while Republicans in some states have renewed calls for additional audits of the 2020 returns.

    After pushing baseless allegations of election fraud, Byrne was one of the key figures who helped fund a partisan audit of the 2020 election in Arizona's Maricopa County, ABC News has previously reported.

    Byrne, who previously said he'd been funding his own team of "hackers and cybersleuths and other people with odd skills" to search for voter fraud, has so far raised over $1.5 million to support the audit, according to the website created by his new nonprofit organization, The America Project. The former CEO also claims to have donated at least $500,000 of his own money to fund the audit.
