rudy giuliani was brought down by rudy giuliani. >> if rudy. had left public life either after 9/11 or after 2008. when he dies in a few years, they would name high schools after him. they would rename laguardia airport after him. he would go down as a complex. weird. funny, strange, highly accomplished guy who at two key inflection points in history, stood up and offered powerful leadership. that man's gone. unfortunately, it's tragic.

rudy, rudy, get over here. >> i would head up a campaign to to reelect him for a third term. he's the man. >> basically, my agenda is the only agenda discussed in the campaign, one way or the other. when you think about it. i mean, that's that's the core of what the discussion is all about, the agenda that we've set for the city. >> after i had said, okay, borough president freddy ferrer had made the very smart decision to say, no, we've done this for centuries in this city, for centuries in this nation, in times of crisis and war. >> this should be no exception. >> the city is bigger than any one individual. we have to move forward with the process. it is an outrage that he should demand an extension of his time and effectively engage in political extortion. and so that idea died a quick death. >> he endorsed bloomberg. bloomberg was down 15 points, i think at the time bloomberg won. and then, you know, it was over. >> rudy dealt with it directly. i remember seeing him pack up his office, and there was a sense of some sadness. but, you know, i think there was a sense of exha

you know, one rudy in the city. so i happened to call rudy and then did an interview, and then i got hired down here, and i've been here for 12 years, and it's a blessing. it's a blessing to work with kids. you know? you a blessing, bro. to be a part, to just be a part of a positive environment. yeah. coming from a negative environment, to be a part of a positive environment is a blessing. yeah. you want to talk about that negative environment. negative environment was just growing up being a part of a neighborhood, you know, doing things to feel accepted. you know, not getting the right nurturing love at hom. so you step out your comfort zone to go get it from friends or you know, to when you just want to be loved, bro. it don't matter what environment you're in. it don't matter if it's positive or negative because love can come from either environment. it's about what environment you choose that you feel like you can succeed in. and at the time, me being a negative thinker at the time due to my way of living, due

rudy giuliani did that. he had rulings on his liability with amounts set about what he owed ruby freeman and shaye moss for defaming them and really damaging them, injuring them. they got death threats. they had to move. actual monetary damage as well as emotional damage and yet he is defying the court orders to divulge his assets. he is hiding things. he was at a hearing friday that is continuing tomorrow about whether he should be in contempt for failing to produce the assets he needs to produce to fulfill that judgment. that is what the chief justice was talking about in his message. this defiance of judicial orders and the rule of law. we are in a dangerous situation when it comes to the rule of law when between disinformation and people in positions of power , elected officials, are espousing the idea of ignoring court rulings. we may disagree with court rulings, i often do, sometimes i think they're right or wrong, but if we get to a point in this country where we do not abide by those rulings, then we

rudy giuliani is suffering real consequences already.ll suffer additional consequences as is deserved. there are other people around trump who have suffered consequences. it is too bad that is not going to happen for the person at the top of the ticket except maybe cosmically. but i think it is very real, that rudy has suffered consequences for his behavior as he will shut. >> andrew weissmann, harry litman, thank you for sticking with me. when we returned, new reporting and scrutiny against one of president-elect donald trump's most controversial cabinet picks. we will have to read -- that after a very short break. stay with us. with us. when you're looking for answers, it's good to have help. because the right information, at the right time, may make all the difference. at humana, we know that's especially true when you're looking for a medicare supplement insurance plan. that's why we're offering "seven things every medicare supplement should have". it's yours free, just for calling the number on your screen. and when you call, a know

first of all, there are a lot of other people who rudy giuliani owes money to.ond of all, he just doesn't have enough assets. even the assets we're talking about here, the manhattan home, the florida home, if you total those up, it's about $10 million, which is less than 10% of the total amount that are due. they are pursuing their assets but they will never be made whole. >> this is just one case around rudy giuliani surrounding his conduct and the 2020 election. have you ever seen anything like this happen before? >> i have not. he has earned it for himself. had this is fitting this is happening on january 6th. as a result of giuliani's behavior before, during and after, he's now been found for defamation in this case and several others. he's under two different criminal indictments. he was named as a co- conspirator in jack smith's indictment and he's lost his law license in every jurisdiction where he used to be able to practice. so, it's been a precipitous fall, jake, from a man who was honored in some circles. >> in that courthouse where he was having to t

>> rudy giuliani, as you just mentioned, owes these two georgia election workers, $146 million.they are fighting about now is which of his assets have to be turned over to these women. a district court judge has previously ordered his new york apartment, a vintage mercedes convertible, bank accounts, 20 something watches have to be turned over to them. what they're arguing about is whether giuliani has participated in discovery and good faith, and as a result, whether his palm beach condominium, which he says is exempt from being seized because it is his primary residence, whether that too can be forced to be turned over to them. that's what the judge has heard today and we're expecting rulings shortly. >> lisa rubin, thank you so much. that is going to do it for us on a very busy monday. make sure to join us for "chris jansing reports" every weekday are from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. eastern right here on msnbc. all of this news, we'll take it up again. our coverage continues with "katy tur reports" right after this. ontinues with "katy tur reports" right after this upset stomach ibero

so . >>> tonight a federal judge is holding rudy jewel januariny in contempt for purposely making it the two georgia election workers that he defamed to collect the $150 million he owes them. so far giuliani has started turning over luxury watches, his mercedes-benz to ruby freeman and shaye moss but holding back about other assets. he appeared via zoom where the judge ultimately had that finding, it was exactly four years ago tonight that rudy giuliani was here in washington, falsely claiming election fraud and rallying up the crowd that was gathered at the ellipse. >> let's have trial by combat. >> trump himself echoed giuliani, encouraging those to fight like hell as his supporters will say he also told them to protest peacefully. this comes as cnn donie o'sullivan witnessed all this unfold as he was marching from the ellipse to the capitol with trump supporters that day, covering the riot, all through the night. cnn elle reef was on the scene at the capitol speaking to rioters who broke in that day. they are both my sources tonight. i'm so glad to have both of you here given that

how do you get rudy giuliani to comply if he is already cash poor? one absolutely and one available to the judge is jail time. >> joe. >> but it doesn't seem like this is about him being cash poor. it seems like him not doing what the court is asking him to do or telling him to do, which is to turn over the title, whether it's to his cars or turn over all documents to his new york city apartment. i guess what i don't understand is, why does this keep rolling on into the day and night and day and night? i'm sorry, am i being naive here to think that if any of us kept ignoring court 's orders the wa rudy giuliani is ignoring court orders, i mean, we'd be thrown in jail. my only frame of reference, i guess, is where i practiced law and grew up in northwest florida. man, a judge tells you to do something, and i'm dead serious, you do it. if they tell you a second time, you're in jail. this is just black and white. i don't understand, why do we keep getting these news stories that he kind of doesn't feel like doing what the judge is telling him to do? >>

rudy giuliani was there. both present, talking about the senior people who were there that day.se people. >> yeah. i mean, look, there's even something called a january 6 choir, which is prisoners who basically called in and sang into a phone. and that's been kind of remixed with a trump speech. it's been played at trump rallies. just a total transformation. right? in the last four years in terms of -- and very intentional and purposeful too when it comes to tucker carlson and everybody else changing how people are -- or at least many people view what really happened that day here. >> donie o'sullivan, elle reeve greet both of you reporting. breaking news this hour, special counsel jack smith in his final report that he's expected to issue on his investigation into donald trump, trump's attorneys now responding. we have more right after this quick break. >>> breaking news as we have just learned from a filing that donald trump's attorneys and attorneys for his allies have now reviewed special counsel jack smith's report that he is preparing to publish as soon as in the coming da

all right, so joey, just briefly, rudy giuliani being held in contempt because he hasn't turned over there will be a trial to determine, you know, just backing up very briefly, kasie, what happens is ÷÷this is a distinction between winning a civil case, and we know that udy giuliani was found liable for defamation for the tune of $240 million. there's a distinction between monetary judgment and collecting the judgment, and so here in order to collect the judgment, right? the plaintiffs' attorneys, miss freeman and her daughter have looked to get this money. rudy giuliani is not being cooperative with respect to giving what he owes, with respect to sharing information. he's in contempt. he's trying to protect, briefly, his florida home. if he can establish that home is÷÷a home he lives in, it gets protected. if it's just another asset, it doesn't, so there will be a trial as to that, and the judge will prohibit him from really making the argument that it's his home because he hasn't provided information to that fact, and so what's next is really interesting as to whether÷÷they can get

we love rudy."o mad that biden just banned oil and gas drilling on 625 million coastal acres in the atlantic and pacific oceans. and trump tried to explain why he was mad in a way that clarified absolutely nothing. >> the 625 million acres. people can't realize, that's like the whole ocean. think an acre. you know, an acre. you have a house on a half an acre, on a quarter of an acre or an acre. if you have an acre, you have a big deal. now you multiply that by 625 million acres. it's like, feels like the whole ocean. [ light laughter ] >> seth: none of that makes any sense. [ laughter ] this sounds like an s.a.t. math problem written by a dog who just smoked weed.

one of them is rudy giuliani.udy giuliani has a judge tonight holding him in contempt for failure to turn over information to the two georgia election workers that he has been obviously found guilty and he owes them $150 million in damages. trump can't bail him out of this case. so you've got a rudy giuliani who somehow is going to pay the piper. trump's president. talk about a path in the woods, two paths diverge in the woods. what happens to giuliani now? >> so i think giuliani's in deep trouble. it looks as though there's no way out for him from this particular proceeding, which means that he's going to lose most of his assets and it looks like he might very well now have lost his home in florida because of his contempt of the court. we'll see what happens. but i think that's a good likelihood. and then he still faces criminal liability and exposure in georgia if that case is resurrected. it could be against him. and he's indicted in arizona for carrying out the false electors scheme. so he really has been left

> yeah, they say you cannot squeeze blood from a stone and it seems harder to squeeze money out of rudyani but he has been testifying and the defense seems to be i'm confused, i'm busy, i'm the subject of 15 to 20 lawsuits and i'm having a difficult time keeping track of it but the judge will order he identify and dispose of these assets and freeman will be able to collect their assets but it'll take a lot of work and he will not make it easy for him. >> and meanwhile, the president- elect had a busy weekend there at mar-a-lago. the leader of italy was there and they whole lot of other leaders as well. >> reporter: the prime minister of italy came to mar-a-lago to meet with the president-elect but ended up bringing her to a movie premiere that is focused on john eastman. of course, the lawyer who urged donald trump and mike pence the electoral college votes could be rejected and sent back to the states in 2021. john eastman was indicted for those acts but john eastman was joined by peter navarro, michael flynn, rudy giuliani, all inside of the ballroom down at mar-a-lago for the film pr

. >> speaking of folks who need to pay, let's talk about former mayor rudy giuliani.week, dealing with issues around content with respect to his need to pay after that judgment . what do you think will be the final outcome? >> i am fascinated by this because this is the guy who is ardently closest to trump and his biggest advocate and he is the one who seems to be paying for it the most. so, when will he pay out? >> the answer to that question is likely going to be that whatever he ends up paying will be a tiny fraction of the massive judgment that these two plaintiffs got against him for defaming them. that is the way it often happens. >> that wants me to say a word i cannot say on tv. >> this is something that the lawyers should have known in advance. anytime you go after an individual, unless it is president-elect donald trump or elon musk or someone with massive coffers, full of liquid cash, that is why defamation cases are not normally something attorneys like us want to take on because it is the rare defendant who has the money to pay. even rudy giuliani, we wou

what they've done to rudy. but rudy's going to come out on top. it's just just a question of time. i don't. that was nbc's vaughn hillyard reporting in new york city. a controversi traffic plan went into effect today. it is now the first city in the country to have so-called congestion pricing. that means drivers have to pay a $9 toll to drive on city streets into the heart of manhahattan. that toll drops to 225 during off hours. now, city officials hope it will reduce traffic gridlock while raising money for public transit. the fight to stop the rollout continued in court until late friday, when a federal judge ruled the manhattan toll could go forward. i think it's just a tax. it's not going to alleviate any congestion. places like chicago and los angeles, which also have pretty severe traffic congestion, are watching to see what happens here in new york. the program launched without major hiccups early this morning, but officials say the real test will be during the workweek commute. the man convicted of killing san francisco tech executive bob lee is expected to learn his sente

what they've done to rudy. but rudy's going to come out on top. it's just just a question of time.hat was vaughn hillyard reporting. amazon is working on a documentary about melania trump. amazon prime video announced today that it's licensing a documentary film about the incoming first lady. jeff bezos is the founder and executive chairman of amazon, and today's announcement comes after bezos said that he plans to donate $1 million to the inaugural fund of president elect trump. bezos also met with trump at his mar a lago club in florida after his election win over vice president kamala harris. up next, not a day to day injury. who? steve kerr with an update on warriors forward jonathan kuminga. anthony flores has details ahead in sports. and right now we're starting to see some patchy fog around the bay area. you see it there near the golden gate bridge, also near santa rosa. the latest on this. and when gusty wind z's bakery is looking to add a pizza oven, arissa's hair salon wants to expand their space, and steve's t-shirt shop wants to bring on more help. with the comcast busi

well, rudy very much thinks he's donald. he thinks that he's above the law. he's the great, you know, former mayor of new york who took us through nine over 11, america's mayor at one point in time. he doesn't believe that the law applies to him. he made incredibly defamatory, hurtful and life altering statements about two election workers improperly, and a jury made a determination on the damages. he doesn't believe he needs to turn over anything. he lies to the court, he says about this joe dimaggio signed jersey. i have no idea. but yet there it is. as an example, on his statement for the divorce proceeding. so we know that he has it. we know that there are assets. he won't even turn over the document on the title to his mercedes. i mean, it's embarrassing to be honest with you. he believes that he is above the law. he believes he's donald trump. he believes that he can act and be donald trump, but he's not. michael cohen, thank you for coming in and being with us. and give my regards to your family. of course. coming up, los angeles is burning and preside

>> well, jake, this was a hearing getting rudy giuliani to stop spreading lies about the 2020 election, specifically in georgia. so there had been this court case against him, $150 million judgment from these two georgia election workers. he was defaming. they've been trying to hold him to account here. and what happened was, well, after that trial ended a year ago, he went on his broadcast and four times kept claiming that they had stolen votes in the 2020 election. so today he was brought before a judge who ordered him to review the whole record. all the facts that have been found about what happened in 2020, that there weren't votes switched against donald trump, and he has to acknowledge to the court within ten days that he understands that, that he sees that full record and he has to do that under oath. if he doesn't with this court, he's going to be fined $200 a day. he could even be put in jail. and it was a day where the judge said to him it was outrageous and shameful what he was doing to these two women. >> let me just ask a question. what if he can't because there's somethin

rudy giuliani was held in contempt of court for the second time in one week, this time because he wasot stopping, spreading lies about the 2020 election. what has happened to giuliani in court in washington, d.c.? is that a year ago, a jury found that he had defamed two georgia election workers for repeating the false statement that they had stolen votes against donald trump in the 2020 election. that was false. and he was found to need to pay them $150 million for defamation. after that, five and a half months later, he went on his broadcast. this past november and kept repeating the things that he said about them. essentially the same lies about the 2020 election, saying them again. and so what happened in court was that giuliani had to appear and the judge had to put in place some sort of punishment so that he wouldn't continue to do this. what she decided this is judge beryl howell of the d.c. district court. she decided that he would have to swear to the court within ten days that he acknowledges the facts, the true facts about the 2020 election, that it was not stolen, and that

while we have you, there was some news that came down which is a federal judge has a found route -- rudyiuliani in contempt for failing to turn over information to two former election workers he defamed after the 2020 election and they are pursuing him for $150 million in damages and they had a hard time trying to collect that and rudy giuliani had a lot of issues after he was found liable in court over this. what would be next in the case? >> right now this was an issue about his palm beach residence and whether or not that can be used to satisfy the judgment and his argument is this is his private residence and the laws in florida could help shield your private residence from being something that would be subject to judgment collection and that is what it stems from. and this is about all of this document and evidence that he would establish whether or not it would qualify under these restrictions as far as collections and he did admit it is contempt or he that he did feel evidence and information that he was supposed to and he gave excuses but he said he did not do it and that was rea

so, rudy giuliani got to pay up. stop running from the court. >> just pay up.partment, duit, you should pay. >>> on another issue trump got a little bit of a positive mark from you matthew for his u.s. steel decision, let's go on the other side. he jumped on board fox when fox, for about two hours was misrepresenting the new orleans terrorist attack as something to do with the border as being open borders, attacked by a person that comes over the border from mexico. that was a lie. it seems that while they did retract the story fox is not letting go of the narrative. it feels dangerous because it is untrue. your thoughts? >> even the current new speaker, the new re-elected speaker is not letting it go. >> he is from there >> yes. >> from louisiana. >> yes. talking about it and talking about the open border so people do not have to connect the dots in their minds. to me it is such a dangerous thing in our democracy. it goes back to times in our history where people made up stories and then all of a sudden large segments of neighborhoods were wiped out because so
