Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani expressed gratitude to his supporters for backing his new show following his dismissal from his radio show on WABC in New York City. The firing came after WABC owner John Catsimatidis terminated Giuliani due to his persistent claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from former President Donald Trump. Giuliani, who served as Trump’s attorney, has since taken his show to X and thanked his listeners for their support during this challenging time.
I've heard from so many friends and patriots these last few days, and I just wanted to thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
I've never compromised my integrity for money, and I never will, no matter the consequences.
There's too much at stake. We have a country to save. https://t.co/7IvRgR2ogl

Giuliani emphasized his commitment to integrity and stated that he will not compromise his values for monetary gain, regardless of the consequences. He stressed the importance of saving the country and vowed to continue speaking out on his show. Giuliani has released four episodes on X, with his latest discussing the upcoming debates between Trump and President Joe Biden.
On X, Giuliani refuted claims that he had agreed not to discuss the 2020 election, insisting that it was a primary topic on his show. He accused Catsimatidis of succumbing to pressure from the Democratic Party. Giuliani also shared WABC’s contact information on social media, urging users to inquire about the station’s stance on free speech following his dismissal.
Catsimatidis, who temporarily hosted Giuliani’s show, described the situation as “tragic” and attributed Giuliani’s dismissal to his refusal to comply with directives not to discuss the legitimacy of the 2020 election results. Despite offering multiple warnings, Catsimatidis ultimately felt compelled to terminate Giuliani due to his behavior.
