Former New York City mayor and ardent Trump supporter Rudy Giuliani was served notice of his Arizona indictment over an alleged plot to overturn the 2020 election, by state officials at his 80th birthday party in Palm Beach.
Some guests at the party cried and screamed as Giuliani was served while those at the party said officials stormed the party “like it was Normandy,” according to the New York Post.
“While crime in Arizona is at an all-time high the Arizona Secretary of State’s office felt it was a good use of resources to send multiple agents across the country to storm an 80th birthday party like it was Normandy,” Caroline Wren, a top GOP consultant who hosted the birthday party at her home, said.
Giuliani is one of 18 involved in the Arizona case alleging a “fake electors” plot and officials had been having trouble locating him to serve the indictment, until his Friday party.
The fake electors plot originated from some electors’ forgery of documents that claimed Trump won the 2020 election.
Giuliani and others are charged with felony counts, including conspiracy, forgery and fraud.
Trump strategists Steve Bannon and Roger Stone and as many as 200 guests were at Giuliani’s party.
His political adviser, Ted Goodman, was also displeased with how Giuliani was served.
“It’s unfortunate that they chose to barge up and startle guests during a celebration of this man’s 80th birthday,” Goodman told the outlet. “They could’ve shown a little more respect for the man who comforted the nation following September 11th and who stands up for law enforcement and the men and women in blue.”

Arizona Attorney General (D) Kris Mayes said “nobody is above the law,” in response to Giuliani being served.
It wouldn’t be the first time in recent history that a figure in politics has been served in an unusual way. Former President Donald Trump’s legal team served a subpoena to Stormy Daniels as she entered a Brooklyn bar, leaving the papers at her feet.
