Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and her mother Ruby Freeman — the indefatigable and very appropriately named “Lady” Ruby Freemanhave at long last struck a devastating blow against not just Rudy Giuliani, but also against black folks’ arch nemesis and the current Racist-in-Chief, Donald J. Trump.

Today, a Fulton County, Georgia jury of eight handed down a massive $148 million verdict against Giuliani for his vicious, vile, racist, and unrelenting lies and defamation against these women for their completely upright, innocent, and honorable roles as election workers in the 2020 presidential election.

Giuliani’s long history of white supremacy/white racism against the black people of New York City is well documented and still fresh in the minds, bodies, and souls of all black New Yorkers. Beginning as the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York and then as mayor of the largest, richest, and most cosmopolitan of all US cities, Giuliani’s comeuppance in a southern city courtroom, Atlanta, with its own strong black presence…well, this is way past “karma.”

They only asked for $48 million.
