BREAKING: Rudy Giuliani's law license has been suspended. A disciplinary body says he made "demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump." http://www.nycourts.gov/courts/ad1/calendar/List_Word/2021/06_Jun/24/PDF/Matter%20of%20Giuliani%20(2021-00506)%20PC.pdf …

A court hearing is underway in Dominion Voting's defamation litigation against Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Mike Lindell. (Judge Carl Nichols consolidated the cases for this hearing). The judge says he wants to hear from Powell's lawyer first. Then Lindell. Then Rudy.

Sidney Powell and Mike Lindell are in the courtroom, hearing arguments in a defamation case that could bankrupt them if it succeeds. Rudy Giuliani is not in attendance. Alan Dershowitz is here, representing MyPillow. Dominion's CEO also in the courtroom. (I dialed in)

The judge is really grilling Sidney Powell's lawyer.https://twitter.com/jacq_thomsen/status/1408131807481151493?s=20 …

MyPillow's lawyer argues Dominion has failed to show "actual malice" -- a required element in a defamation case involving a public figure. But judge seems skeptical. Judge asks: doesn't Dominion have enough circumstantial evidence to survive a motion to dismiss? (paraphrase)

Interesting exchange: MyPillow's lawyer argued Lindell was just speaking about an issue of public concern -- voting machine security -- and that even Democrats like Sen. Klobuchar have raised concerns. Judge essentially said that's a straw man argument.https://twitter.com/ZoeTillman/status/1408138952360574980?s=20 …

This was an important moment. The judge quickly brushed aside the dubious claim by Powell/Lindell that they were saying things about Dominion machines that Democrats said years ago. Judge wasn't buying it.https://twitter.com/DaveThomas5150/status/1408139162591666182?s=20 …
