After the 2020 election, Rudy Giuliani baselessly claimed two Georgia election workers manipulated ballots. One of the workers, Ruby Freeman, said she lost her "name" and "reputation" as a result. On Wednesday, Giuliani said in a filing he's not contesting the fact his statements were false. The filing says Giuliani is only conceding to making false statements for the purposes of litigation strategy so that he can save some money. Giuliani's spokesperson Ted Goodman told Insider that, despite conceding that he made false statements in the filing, the former mayor still plans to further contest the defamation suit.
