🚨Rudy Giuliani, The Big Lie, Dominion Voting Systems
🚨Did Rudy almost hire his ex-lawyer & close friend John Pierce for the $1.3 Dominion Voting Lawsuit.
🚨Perhaps an Accused-Liar-as-Lawyer-for-the-Big-Lie-Liar Situation?
🚨Alleged text from Pierce at the pic
🚨See 2/4 below

2/4 Pierce didn't get the nod from Rudy, and he was also personally fired by the 18-yr old Kyle Rittenhouse 1-week later. The text above also discusses Ricky Schroder. That is an interesting situation. The Hill Reporter with short, illuminating coverage. hillreporter.com/kyle-rittenhou…
