Rudy Giuliani in 'critical' condition in hospital, spokesman says

Rudy Giuliani has been hospitalized and is in critical condition, according to his spokesperson, Ted Goodman.

“Mayor Rudy Giuliani is currently in the hospital, where he remains in critical but stable condition. Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he’s fighting with that same level of strength as we speak,” Goodman wrote on X Sunday.

“We do ask that you join us in prayer for America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani,” Goodman added.

The spokesman did not specify why the former New York City mayor, who is 81, had been hospitalized, or which hospital admitted him.

President Donald Trump on Sunday confirmed Giuliani was hospitalized, in a post that took political shots at Democrats.

"Our fabulous Rudy Giuliani, a True Warrior, and the Best Mayor in the History of New York City, BY FAR, has been hospitalized, and is in critical condition," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

"What a tragedy that he was treated so badly by the Radical Left Lunatics, Democrats ALL — AND HE WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING! They cheated on the Elections, fabricated hundreds of stories, did anything possible to destroy our Nation, and now, look at Rudy. So sad!" Trump added.

Giuliani, who served as Trump's personal lawyer, represented Trump in lawsuits attempting to overturn the 2020 election results. He was disbarred in New York and Washington, D.C. over his involvement in those efforts.

He also faced state charges in Georgia and Arizona for his actions following the 2020 election, and was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in special counsel Jack Smith's federal election interference case against Trump. The former mayor denied the allegations.
