(www.advocate.com)
Every time he comes up I'm surprised he's still alive.

The final Horcrux must be found OR we have to wait 5 years for his face to fully melt off (as per the pact) at which point he returns to the goopy pile he was begat... begotten... Urrrrm, emergeged from.
The final ~~Horcrux~~ phylactery must be found
Cultural references to JK Rowling are ... not a great way to show support for trans people.
Ghouliani?
He’s undead. His corpse is rotting but he still comes out of the shallow grave he sleeps in.
I honestly thought he died of heart disease or something.
Same...like read the title and instantly was confused he's not dead...
That was just a dream. A sweet and wonderful dream.
I'm more disappointed
Going by that photo, so is he.
He definitely doesn't look like it.
I'm surprised More like nauseated in my case.
For real, wasn't he on the brink of death in the hospital a few months ago?
Dont worry, we now have precedent for him continuing to be a prick beyond the grave.
FTA:
“You teach them that it’s OK to be a transvestite. In fact, you have transvestites come to school and give lectures to show them it’s perfectly OK,”
THIS Rudy?
My luck! I had this same picture ready in my clipboard to Ctrl-V into a comment. But you beat me to it.
Well, good on you! And I agree with you!
Yeah... THAT hypocritical piece of pedo shit
Hey, remember when he was caught trying to rape a minor in the Borat sequel?
I still do not understand why nothing happened about that. This dude should be in prison.
Because
- He's a rich white Republican and the law doesn't apply to them
- See point #1
9/11 Disease. Many of the volunteers who worked at the Ground Zero site later developed serious lung problems. New York City police and fire fighters who'd been some of Rudy's biggest fans. Giuliani never went to any of the funerals and did nothing to get them compensation.
When Rudy was sick earlier this year, he blamed his time at the Ground Zero site.
Damn, I thought he was dead. Shame.
Fuck whatever this fucken fucker is spewing out! He’s a traitor like most other republican politicians!
They say the same shit about anyone.
It's why moderation doesn't work, they said all this same shit about Obama/Clinton/Biden/Harris as they do about Mamdani/El-Sayed.
People need to just vote in the general, but we're still pretty far out and the "Don't vote D it's a waste!!!" Propaganda is already ramping up.
I'm really worried people are going to fall for it
What people really need to do is vote in the primaries, so the good candidates make it to the general.
Yep, and during the primaries I kept saying vote in the primaries...
After the general, I'll be telling people to get involved and start looking for who they'll support in the next primary.
Like, if there's still a primary out, absolutely vote in it.
Just vote in every election no matter what. It's clearly a use it or lose it thing these days.
This dude? The dude who dressed as a chick and got motorboated by Trump and fucked his own cousin? Yeah, ok pal 👌
Traditional American values.
Unlike those godless communists.
Thought this fuck died already. Why we giving him news?
Such a ghoul.
Just keel over you decrepit old bag of liverspots, be doing the world a favor
Actual brain rot.
I’m surprised it’s taken them this long to bash trans people again.
This whole Iran thing has them fucked up.
It’s been nice not hearing anything about it for a while. I’m tired of being used as a scapegoat by literal demons pretending to be human.
Stupidity I can forgive. You were brainwashed. Your leaders betrayed and manipulated you. I forgive you.
The talking heads? The leaders themselves?
I will never forgive the culprits of this mayhem.
Anyone remember the second Borat movie they made during covid? Guy’s a slimy snake
An entire US political party is just untreated mentally Ill people screaming that they have freedom to refuse treatment and terrorizes others with their surging illness. Regan closed all the mental health facilities to lead to this inevitable moment.
To these people, "pushing a trans agenda" really means "not pushing a transphobic agenda"
For some reason I thought he had died a while ago
If you could provide a pie-chart of what things most seem to occupy the broken brains of the right wing, it would probably have quite a bit dedicated to trans, along with Obama, Hillary, migrant caravans, and other things that don't affect their lives in any meaningful way.
Oh, I'd thought he'd died already.
Ah well. Soon.
It's been so nice not seeing his name in the news.
thought this asshole was already on his death bed
Rudy who?
Why can’t these people just go away?
This criminal loser still toots propaganda?
To a MAGAt mind it makes complete sense.
Thought he died last year
Penguin.
Fucking hell. I thought we'd heard the last of this shithead when he got sued into bankruptcy.
Yo, left and right are played out on purpose to make sure nothing good ever happens and while they bicker and bitch the real bad people pull strings and make life suck more for all genuine humans regardless of political affiliation, yo.
We all bean played y'all.
Word is bond.
Sheeeeeeit
