Ex-New York Mayor Giuliani in hospital, condition 'critical'

Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, has been hospitalized and is currently in "critical but stable" condition. His spokesperson, Ted Goodman, confirmed the news on Sunday evening via social media, stating that the former mayor is fighting with the same level of strength he has used to face every challenge in his life. While the spokesperson described Giuliani as a "fighter," he did not provide a specific cause for the hospitalization.^[1][3][4][6]

Giuliani rose to national prominence and was dubbed "America’s mayor" for his leadership in the aftermath of the September 11 terror attacks in 2001. However, his public reputation has undergone a significant transformation in recent years, largely due to his role as a long-time champion and adviser to former President Donald Trump. Following the news of his condition, Trump reportedly blamed his ally's health struggles on Democrats.^{[1][2][4][5][6]}

The former mayor's condition was described as critical by multiple outlets, though his team maintained that he remains stable while receiving care. No information has been released regarding which hospital is treating him or how long he is expected to remain under medical supervision. His spokesperson emphasized that Giuliani is facing this latest hurdle with "unwavering strength" as he continues to fight.^[1][2][3][6]
