Rudy Giuliani, former President Donald Trump's onetime personal attorney and a lead architect of his attempt to overturn the 2020 election results, on Friday met with the House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, insurrection, two sources told CNN.

Giuliani's original deposition with the committee had been postponed after the former New York City mayor asked to record the interview, with both audio and video. At the time, Giuliani's attorney Robert Costello said the committee rejected that request.

Despite Giuliani backing out of the original deposition, the two sides continued to negotiate an appearance, which led to a virtual appearance Friday that lasted for more than nine hours, sources said.

1. Did They Put A Tarp Under His Chair Before He Testified?

Cleaning oil stains out of the rug would be a real pain.

[Probatim]

2. 9 hours with Rudy - sounds horrific.

[Joinfortmill]

3. Must have had something interesting to say.

[Talitha]

4. Geeze, I couldn't last 9 minutes talking to that moron.

[LenaBaby61]

23. Geeze, I couldn't last 9 minutes talking to that moron.

[Effete Snob]

5. That's enough time for him to take his pants off

Although the record seems to be about five minutes.

[Unwind Your Mind]

22. Lol! with a snort for good measure

[orleans]

6. holey moley!

9 hours?

well, it was a virtual appearance so he probably had a selection of drinks (alcohol) just off camera.

good thing it wasn't in person--he might have melted right before their eyes. the way they did it he probably was a lot more comfortable and relaxed. (probably not wearing pants) (ewww!)

[BigmanPigman]

7. He said last week that he wanted to be on TV

or he wouldn't testify. I wonder what changed.

[JudyM]

8. Cue the drip.

[Linda Ed]

9. How did he plea? Will we find out what he said?

Surely he will be losing his law license and not just in NYC..

Remember when Rudy said he had Insurance policies when asked if he was worried about Trump turning on him or a Trump situation blowing up.. Wondering if that question was asked...or plea the fifth?

[PatSeg]

19. Yes, I remember that

He just couldn't help himself, though I suppose that might have been intentional at the time. There is no doubt in my mind that Rudy would throw Trump under the bus in a heartbeat to save his own hide.

[jcgoldie]

10. Gonna take more than 9 hours to trip up Rudy!

yeah right!

[Vinca]

11. That must have been a treat. Hope he didn't sweat any hair dye during the appearance.

[twodogsbarking]

12. He looks like he smells bad.

[LenaBaby61]

24. I know he smelled even worse when he broke wind twice sitting next to fellow tRump-crook/lawyer:

Jenna Ellis.

[machoneman]

13. Wow, 9 hours of lies, fabrications, innuendo, falsehoods, prevarications and more! The circus...

...definitely came to town!

[Maeve]

15. Since it was virtual, he probably got to record it

And so did the committee...

[Emile]

16. America's Mayor as GWB coined him is in the hot seat. Phony

SOB needs a jail cell.

[machoneman]

17. On second thought, that blabbermouth likely gave new information, wholly by accident....

...to the committee. I do wonder if he was accompanied, off screen, by an attorney. Regardless, he probably ignored good advice on a number of answers and just kept babbling as is his usual m.o.

[PatSeg]

18. You're probably right

In that sense, he is much like Trump. Once he starts talking he can't control what comes out of his mouth. I would love to have seen that televised, but I suppose nine hours of Rudy would be more than the average person could tolerate.

[McKim]

20. Must have been hard....

Must have been hard without a drink for nine whole hours!

[Justice matters.]

21. I bet he recorded it without saying...

That's the way traitors act.
