Ana Navarro calls out Rudy Giuliani's evasion tactics 

Host Ana Navarro affirmed that Giuliani had indeed been trying to evade law enforcement, as she explained, "They had been chasing him down, trying to serve him for weeks and weeks in New York and in Florida. He had been holed up in his apartment refusing service. He thought the deadline was coming and that he was going to be fine. All those people crying and screaming and shrieking."

She also mentioned that Giuliani had gone as far as taunting law enforcement on social media.

In a now-deleted social media post, Giuliani wrote, “If Arizona authorities can’t find me by tomorrow morning: 1. They must dismiss the indictment; 2. They must concede they can’t count votes.” However, he was served with the papers just two hours later.

The message was accompanied by a photo showing Giuliani smiling alongside six others, with balloons arranged behind them. 

“Rudy!” Goldberg wailed as Navarro poked fun at the people who actually were upset, adding “Rudyyyy! Don’t take my Rudy!"

As the hosts continued to jest about Giuliani, Navarro eventually handed a tissue to Whoopi, commending her for composing herself and carrying on.

"Well, I haven’t stopped crying inside," Goldberg joked in response.

One comment stated, "GOOD! He needs to be in prison too."
