Rudy Giuliani pocketed $300,000 from farmers investing in anti-Biden documentary that was never made

Two farmers who plowed $1 million into a documentary that would supposedly come out before the 2020 election and expose Joe Biden and Hunter Biden's corrupt dealings in Ukraine want their money back.

In 2019, a new lawsuit alleges, California fruit-and-nut farming magnates and brothers Baldev and Kewel Munger met Tim Yale, a Republican political operative at a fundraiser. A few months later, Yale introduced them to Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, according to the suit. By then, Giuliani was hard at work trying to dig up election-year dirt on Joe Biden in his capacity as President Trump's personal attorney.

Giuliani, the lawsuit alleges, asked for the farmers' help finance efforts to make sure Trump was elected to a second term. But Giuliani wasn't seeking a donation — he wanted them to invest in a documentary. The suit was filed this month by a Munger-owned LLC, one of several entities controlled by the multinational agro-barons, who also hold part ownership of Naturipe, the world's largest producer of blueberries.

Giuliani was working with Yale and cannabis investor George Dickson III, per the suit. The lawsuit claims that the three men pitched the farmers on a film that would be "a possible 'kill shot' to Biden's presidential campaign." The three men "all represented that they possessed key documents that were 'smoking guns' that would establish that the Ukrainian government engaged in a quid pro quo exchange with the Biden family to benefit Burisma," the complaint continues.

1. Such a slimy...

POS. He's going down hard and soon.

[marmar]

2. What do they say about a fool and his money?

[Comfortably_Numb]

13. Gordon Gekko said, in the movie Wallstreet, "a fool and his money are lucky enough to get together

in the first place.”

[whopis01]

44. A fool ends up giving his money to another fool

Who gives it to another fool. And the chain continues until some lawyer gets all the money trying to keep these fools out of jail.


Not sure if that’s how the original went - but it works for today.

[FarPoint]

3. They all deserve each other....

They all lack any sense of humanity.

[multigraincracker]

5. Yup.

Got what they deserved

[EYESORE 9001]

4. Think these fruit & nut magnates learned anything?

They’ll still back repuQs who support their bribery, graft, and other corrupt practices.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

6. More evidence that Cult45 are a bunch of morons

Someone wants $1M from me based on documents they purport to possess, I'm saying 'show me the documents and I'll decide whether or not I want to invest'.

And no fucking way am I handing over that kinda cash in a lump sum. Assuming I'm much richer than I am, I might say 'I'll start with 25K and you show me the script so I can read it and decide whether to proceed to help fund it', AFTER having seen the docs and being convinced they're worthy.

That being said, sounds like CLEAR fraud, and hopefully the Justice Department takes some interest in this. Shouldn't just be a civil case IMHO.

[mopinko]

10. ya gotta wonder how they got so rich.

if there’s any legal obligation for them to do due diligence, i think they kiss their mill goodbye.

[bucolic_frolic]

7. Agri-MAGA has even cornered the blueberry market

We not safe anywhere. Not even with our cereal bowls.

[appalachiablue]

42. +1 Backing off blueberries now, dang

[Butterflylady]

8. Don't pity the farmers,

They got what they deserve. Hope they lose the lawsuit.

[NCjack]

29. They should have bought seeds. No refund for those bozos.

41. How much sympathy I have

11. What? A trump suckup stole people's money?

Hard to believe.

[LiberalFighter]

12. Those farmers had that much to throw around?

I don't have any pity on them.

[Sessuch]

26. Munger?

Are the brothers related to Charles Munger, partner in Berkshire Hathaway?

[tanyev]

14. Baldev & Kewel Get Fleeced by Republicans.

[keithbvadu2]

15. 'investing' - What a joke!

[Raven123]

16. Now they file a lawsuit? How interesting. Get in line boys.

[3Hotdogs]

17. Get a lien on the condo before it's sold. MEANWHILE,

cue Nelson.

[mountain grammy]

18. Suckers.

[Marthe48]

19. And the perps pocket the money and walk away

Why do they need the money? Lavish lifestyle, sure, but they don't drive, they stiff as many people as they can, and I bet they don't tip. What do they spend the money on?

And why do people keep giving their money away?

[BumRushDaShow]

20. Now they need it for legal retainers, fees, and court costs

[gordianot]

24. Rudy is headed for quenching his thirst with some Mad Dog.

[paleotn]

21. Republicans are so gullible.

[2live is 2fly]

22. Wouldn't it be more accurate to refer to Giuliani, not as tfg's ex-lawyer but his ex-consigliere? As

far as these people getting any of thier money returned I think the best response there would be (IMHO) simply to Fuck-off you reactionary POS!

[Wonder Why]

23. Two farmers - two[sic] stupid for a brain! More money down the tube for lawyers.

[JI7]

25. No sympathy for any of these

[SKKY]

27. I know this is not the prevailing opinion of Guiliani among most of you...

...but I'm not gonna lie, I kinda feel sad for him. Much in the same way, I felt sad for Stanton Carlisle (Bradley Cooper's character) in the movie Nightmare Alley.

[BumRushDaShow]

30. This is him from 30 years ago

(Ari Melber touched on some of that this past week)

There is nothing about him that would compare other than his "ambition" and "performance art" - the major difference being that he was, and still is (as long as he is not in prison) in a position of power that had, and can continue to be used to negatively impact the lives of others, in addition to garnering fame and money.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

36. Don't

He's always been a self-serving, attention-whoring scumbag.

[sellitman]

28. A fool and his money are soon parted.

[Grins]

31. A million dollars? Oh, those poor suffering farmers.... NM

[ToxMarz]

32. Sometimes you feel like a nut

sometime you ARE!

33. Scams, one born every minute and scammers know there marks.

34. These idiots STILL don't know that they are the marks.

The entire Republican party is a con.

[maxsolomon]

37. "Farmers"? "Multinational Agro-Barons" is far more accurate.

"Farmers" makes them sound like somewhat-sympathetic scam victims, not the assholes they likely are.

Now I know to never again buy Naturipe bloobs.

[Vinca]

38. It's amazing the number of stupid, gullible dupes in this country.

Rudy's going to end up living in a box under a bridge . . . if he can afford a box.

[Bengus81]

39. Bwhahhahahaha....more Republican dip shits willing to shell out big $$$$$

Glad they got taken by Rudy Coludie,just like Trump takes those rubes for $250M then never paid Rudy.

It all goes full circle.............

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

43. Rudy you fucking sleazebag

I don't want to hear you whine anymore how unfair things are.

[Brainfodder]

45. Amazing how long they got away with it in hindsight?

They are going to need a bigger court house?
