Ex-Senator D’Amato Defends Giuliani, Labels Charges as ‘Baseless’ in Conversation with Newsmax
Former Sen. Alfonse D’Amato spoke out against charges filed against Rudy Giuliani in Georgia, calling them “nonsense” and a threat to democracy. D’Amato stated that indicting an attorney for representing a client who believed the election was stolen is wrong and akin to political oppression. He criticized the charges as not being about law enforcement but rather about terrorizing the opposition. D’Amato emphasized the importance of attorney-client privilege and expressed concern that these indictments could bring the U.S. closer to countries like Russia and Pakistan where political opposition leaders are arrested on false charges.
