17 of the funniest Rudy Giuliani mugshot memes
Rudy Giuliani has become a meme...again. This time it wasn't because of a chaotic press conference held in the wrong venue or his hair dye running down his face but for the mugshot that was taken of him at the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office. The former mayor of New York City and lawyer of ex-president Donald Trump surrendered himself to authorities on Wednesday as part of the huge case against Trump's alleged attempts to interfere in the result of the 2020 US election. Both Giuliani and Trump have been hit with racketeering charges over claims they both tried to flip the result of the vote in Georgia which saw the state favour Joe Biden over the former host of the Celebrity Apprentice. Giuliani's bond has been set for $150,000 and despite the seriousness of the situation, people cannot get enough of the man who once claimed the Time Person of the Year award now facing potential jail time. Sure enough, the 79-year-old's mugshot has already become a viral meme. Here are some of our favourites. If this wasn't too much hilarity to comprehend then just imagine what its gonna be like when Trump's mugshot finally gets released.

One killed and four injured after Russian missile hits civilian vessel in Black Sea
A Russian missile hit a civilian ship in a Black Sea port, killing at least one person and injuring four others, according to Ukraine’s officials. A Ukrainian pilot on board was killed in the attack on the vessel in Odesa’s Pivdennyi port, said Yoruk Isik, head of the Bosphorus Observer consultancy. “A few” other crew members were either dead or injured, Mr Isik told Reuters. Of those injured, three were crew members from the Philippines. The other injured individual was identified as a port employee. The ship was loading iron ore in the port when it was hit, said Mr Isik. He identified the vessel as a Kmax Ruler 92,000 dwt – a Liberia-flagged bulk carrier. Ukrainian infrastructure minister Oleksandr Kubrakov said the vessel was supposed to transport iron ore to China. “The missile hit the superstructure of a civilian vessel under the flag of Liberia, at the moment of its entry into the port,” Ukraine’s southern military command said on Telegram. Russia has repeatedly targeted Ukrainian port infrastructure after pulling out of a UN-brokered deal promising safe transit of Ukrainian grain shipments via the Black Sea. Russia has carried out at least 21 such attacks on port infrastructure after pulling out from the deal in July this year. “During this time, the terrorist country damaged more than 160 infrastructure facilities and 122 vehicles,” said the minister Mr Kubrakov. Russia’s exit from the deal brokered by the UN and Turkey has brought an end to the safe export of Ukrainian grain. Moscow exited the deal because it said its demands for economic sanctions to be lifted from its grain and fertiliser exports have not been met. Ukraine is now operating a temporary humanitarian corridor to export grain as it looks to break Russia’s de facto blockade without compromising on the sanctions. Last month, war-time president Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukrainian attacks have denied Russia’s naval fleet safe bases and secure maritime corridors in the western part of the Black Sea. Kyiv’s troops have looked to squeeze the Kremlin’s occupying forces out of the Crimean Peninsula that was illegally annexed in 2014.
