Georgia prosecutor Fani Willis deployed the RICO law in her indictment of Trump and 18 others for 2020 election fraud. The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act is a powerful tool in cases where persons commit a variety of crimes under the leadership of an individual, something akin to a Crime Corporation. Best known for mob convictions, it can reach across layers of underlings right to the top of the organization. See here for important details about Georgia’s RICO law. In the mid 1980s, as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Giuliani used RICO to convict the heads of mob families. At his height he took down the bosses of three of the “five [Mafia] families.” He was a trailblazer.
On Wednesday, the trail looped back on itself and ended at Rudy’s front door when he was himself indicted under Georgia’s RICO statute, and a supercharged RICO Act at that. With his group of 19 alleged Crimes-R-Us corporation, “Big Rudy” now faces 18 counts, including  including violation of oath by a public officer, making false statements, conspiracy to impersonate a public officer and forgery.
Last night a furious Big Rudy told Eric Bolling, Newsmax’s resident crackpot, “This is a ridiculous application of the racketeering statute,” Giuliani bragged, “There’s probably no one that knows it better than I do. Probably some know it as well, but I was the first one to use it in white-collar [crimes].” Indeed he does know RICO; he earned the association of RICO with his name.
Shortly after the Newsmax interview, Rudy Giuliani contacted our nightshift reporter, Nick Schultz. He had some news. He’d “fired a shot across the bow” of Georgia’s Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis when he claimed trademark infringement.
“I alone pioneered the use of RICO and I’m known around the world as RICO Rudy! So my name has become synonymous with RICO.”
Our reporter pointed out that “even bad publicity is good publicity, so your RICO indictment only puts a shine on your trademark.”
Big Rudy: “Like hell it does! They’re using my trademark to put me in jail! Are you that dumb.”
Schultz: “Hey, I’m asking the questions here!”
Big Rudy: “No, no, Big Rudy’s asking the questions whenever he wants! I have my methods . . .”
Schultz: “OK OK No need for mob tactics. ‘Yes, I am that dumb.'”
Big Rudy: “OK. So, here’s your big news: Tomorrow I’m demanding that the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board issue an injunction forcing the Georgia courts to not infringe my RICO trademark. Also, Georgia must immediately desist from carrying forward this idiotic election law case against me under my own RICO statute, which I own. And arrest Fani Willis for being the mob boss she is!”
Schultz: “That’s a big ask, governor.”
Big Rudy: “I decide what’s a big ask. And I was a mayor, a mayor, of New York City, you brainless fish tail!”
Schultz: “But what’s your plan B? Lawyers always have a plan B.”
Big Rudy: “If on the small chance the court dismisses my case . . .”
Schultz: “For lack of a brain . . .”
Big Rudy: “Look kid, I will end you if you insult America’s Mayor again. But I’ll give you my plan B. If my case is dismissed I’ll offer my RICO expertise to the prosecution. I’d need to be paid, of course, and dropped from the indictment. But I know RICO like the back of my dentures. They’d be foolish to refuse. They wanna win, don’t they? I’ll bring each of those defendant bums down! Especially the orange colored guy at the top!”
Big Rudy promptly hung up his phone. However, we here at They Will Say ANYTHING! are here to prove that they will, say, well . . . anything. And Big Rudy did.
Big Rico Rudy said a mouthful!
Big Rudy let’s the chips fall where they may.
