https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/2-georgia-poll-workers-sue-giuliani-oan-over-election-conspiracy-theories/ar-AAS6pIi?li=BB141NW3&ocid=U483DHPTwo former Georgia election workers are suing Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani, One America News Network and several of the networks top executives for pushing a series of debunked conspiracy theories about the workers' role in the 2020 election that they said put them in physical danger and threatened their livelihoods.
Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, her daughter, worked as poll workers counting ballots at State Farm Arena in Fulton County, Ga., during the November 2020 election. In a lawsuit filed in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, the two asserted that they became the center of a series of unfounded conspiracy theories pushed by Giuliani, the former New York City mayor who served as an adviser to former President Donald Trump during the 2020 election, as well as several top employees of OAN, the California-based cable news network with close ties to the then-president.
As a result of their vital service, Ms. Freeman and Ms. Moss have become the objects of vitriol, threats, and harassment, they said in Thursdays complaint, filed in U.S. District Court in Washington. They found themselves in this unenviable position not based on anything they did, but instead because of a campaign of malicious lies designed to accuse them of interfering with a fair and impartial election, which is precisely what each of them swore an oath to protect.

I hope they get a boat-load of money. They serve their country and they get death threats.

I suspect we'll have him behind bars and broke before they can get a piece of his ass.
