Former New York mayor and Trump ally fighting for life in hospital
Former New York mayor and close Donald Trump ally Rudy Giuliani is fighting for his life at a hospital in Florida.
The 81-year-old is critical but stable, according to his spokesperson Ted Goodman.
"Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he's fighting with that same level of strength as we speak," he said in a statement on Sunday night (Monday morning AEST).

"We do ask that you join us in prayer for America's Mayor-Rudy Giuliani."
In response, US President Donald Trump labelled him a "true warrior" who was treated "so bad by the Radical Left Lunatics".
"Our fabulous Rudy Giuliani, a True Warrior, and the Best Mayor in the History of New York City, BY FAR, has been hospitalised, and is in critical condition," he said in a Truth Social Post.
"What a tragedy that he was treated so badly by the Radical Left Lunatics, Democrats ALL — AND HE WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!
"They cheated on the Elections, fabricated hundreds of stories, did anything possible to destroy our Nation, and now, look at Rudy. So sad!"
