Rudy Giuliani on Saturday lashed out against news outlets that reported an indictment ruined his 80th birthday party.
Giuliani, previously known as New York City’s mayor but now more famous for his association to Donald Trump and his subsequent indictment, was indicted in a “fake elector” case out of Arizona. It was reported that “partygoers started screaming” after the ex-prosecutor was officially served with a felony indictment on Friday night for allegedly interfering in Arizona’s 2020 presidential election.
“Officials with the office of Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes served Giuliani in front of nearly 100 guests at his 80th birthday celebration in the Palm Beach, Florida area,” one report stated.
Giuliani wasn’t having it. In addition to requesting corrections from media outlets that reported his indictment came mid-party, he struck out on social media.
“FAKE NEWS ALERT: Contrary to reports from journalists who weren’t there, our early 80th birthday celebration wasn’t ‘ruined’ or interrupted,” he said.
“It was an incredible night w/ friends, including Steve Bannon & Roger Stone,” the lawyer added. “It felt like a strategy session on how to save America!”
He also included some pictures from the party.
