claims of election fraud. quite obviously, surreptitiously passing around usb ports as if they re viles of heroin or cocaine. it s obvious to anyone who is a criminal investigator or prosecutor they re engaged in surreptitious, illegal activity. cnn correspondent nick valencia was first in line when giuliani arrived to the courthouse this morning. nick, what did he say to you? reporter: he was defiant, alisyn. he seemed to be confident as he entered court before 8:30. if you remember, he was expected to testify before the special purpose grand jury last week before his team filed a late emergency motion asking for a continuance, saying it was more reasonable for him to appear in mid september. a fulton county judge ordered him to appear today. that s exactly what he did. he showed up flanked by his attorney from new york, bob costello. i asked point-blank, did he lie to georgia lawmakers when he spoke to them three times in the wake of the 2020 election. mr. giuliani,
