For the billionth time :
Not being provable is not the same thing as a lie. It is simply not proven.

And in the eyes of tens of millions of Americans, the security camera video of these two mother-daughter election workers in action is abundant proof that they WERE rigging votes. It's only a judge arbitrarily telling us we aren't seeing what we clearly see, that excludes that evidence. And forced Giuliani in a convoluted obstacle course of technical legal statements to say he "made a false statement" (i.e., not a "lie", but simply a statement that by court rules Giuliani couldn't prove was true).
