Judge holds Giuliani in contempt for defaming Georgia election workers

A federal judge on Friday held Rudy Giuliani in civil contempt for skirting an agreement not to make new false claims about two Georgia election workers he was ordered to pay $146 million for defaming. 

It was the second time in less than a week a judge found Giuliani in contempt in matters involving the case.

U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell granted the request from Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whom Giuliani has falsely claimed for years engaged in mass election fraud while working in Atlanta on election night in 2020.
