Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been disbarred from practicing law in Washington, D.C., over his efforts to overturn Donald Trump's 2020 election loss based on unproven fraud claims. Giuliani's D.C. law license was suspended in 2021 due to ongoing disciplinary actions in New York, where a court later ruled he had misused his role as Trump's attorney to spread false claims about the 2020 election. The court ruled that Giuliani deliberately violated fundamental legal principles.
