Rudolph William Louis Giuliani (/ˌdʒuːliˈɑːni/ JOO-lee-AH-nee, Italian: [dʒuˈljaːni]; born May 28, 1944) is an American politician and lawyer who served as the 107th mayor of New York City from 1994 to 2001. He previously served as the United States Associate Attorney General from 1981 to 1983 and the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1983 to 1989.[1][2]
Giuliani led the 1980s federal prosecution of New York City mafia bosses as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York.[3][4] After a failed campaign for Mayor of New York City in the 1989 election, he succeeded in 1993, and was reelected in 1997, campaigning on a "tough on crime" platform.[1][5] He led New York's controversial "civic cleanup" from 1994 to 2001.[1][6] and appointed William Bratton as New York City's new police commissioner.[5] In 2000, he ran against First Lady Hillary Clinton for a U.S. Senate seat from New York, but left the race once diagnosed with prostate cancer.[7][8] For his mayoral leadership after the September 11 attacks in 2001, he was called "America's mayor"[5] and was named Time magazine's Person of the Year for 2001.[9][10]
In 2002, Giuliani founded a security consulting business, Giuliani Partners,[1] and acquired, but later sold, an investment banking firm, Giuliani Capital Advisors. In 2005, he joined a law firm, renamed Bracewell & Giuliani.[1] Vying for the Republican Party's 2008 presidential nomination, Giuliani was an early frontrunner[11] yet did poorly in the primary election; he later withdrew and endorsed the party's subsequent nominee, John McCain.[5] Declining to run for New York governor in 2010 and for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012, Giuliani focused on the activities of his business firms.[1][12][13]
After advising him during his 2016 campaign and early administration, Giuliani joined President Donald Trump's personal legal team in April 2018, remaining on it during the 2020 election. His activities as Trump's attorney have led to allegations that he engaged in corruption and profiteering.[4][10][14] In 2019, Giuliani was a central figure in the Trump–Ukraine scandal.[14][15] Following the 2020 presidential election, he represented Trump in many lawsuits filed in attempts to overturn the election results, making false and debunked allegations about rigged voting machines,[16][17] polling place fraud,[18] and an international communist conspiracy.[17][19] Giuliani spoke at the rally preceding the January 6 United States Capitol attack where he made false claims of voter fraud and called for "trial by combat".[20] Later, he was also listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in the federal prosecution of Trump's alleged attempts to overturn the election.[21][22][23] In August 2023, he was indicted in the prosecution related to the 2020 election in Georgia,[24][25][26][27][28] Later in 2023, Giuliani lost $148 million in a defamation lawsuit regarding his false claims about two election workers in Georgia, and subsequently declared bankruptcy.[29] In April 2024, he was also among 18 people who were indicted for prosecution related to the 2020 election in Arizona.[30]
