US President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani speaks to supporters from The Ellipse near the White House on January 6, 2021, in Washington, DC. - Thousands of Trump supporters, fueled by his spurious claims of voter fraud, are flooding the nation's capital protesting the expected certification of Joe Biden's White House victory by the US Congress.
But only up to a point. While Trump and his advisers balked at the $20,000 request weeks ago, it is unclear whether the president will sign off on Giuliani being paid anything other than expenses. A podcast hosted by Steve Bannon, Trump’s former chief strategist, was taken down Thursday because of an interview in which Giuliani repeated false claims about the election. During the interview, Bannon pleaded with Giuliani to move on to a new topic.
That journey has left him looking the worse for wear. Days after the election, Giuliani hit the road, challenging the results in a much-maligned news conference in front of a Pennsylvania landscaping company. In another appearance that month, Giuliani was on camera with black liquid, apparently hair dye, streaming down his face as he railed against the election outcome.
