Lev Parnas Implicates Trump in First Public Comments: The President is ‘Lying,’ ‘He Was Aware of All My Movements’
In an exclusive interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow , indicted campaign conspirator Lev Parnas implicated President Donald Trump in his secret Ukraine conduct, telling her: “Trump knew exactly what was going on.”
Speaking with the liberal cable news host, Parnas, who has publicly turned against Trump and former fried Rudy Giuliani , directly accused the Trump of having “lied” about his lack of knowledge of the shadow foreign policy he and Giuliani were conducting. Parnas just provided Congress a massive tranche of stunning documents purporting to show that he and others were attempting to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to announce an investigation into Joe Biden and that they were physically and electronically stalking then-US Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch , who was perceived to be resistant to their efforts to help the president.
“President Trump knew exactly what was going on,” Parnas claimed. “He was aware of all of my movements. I wouldn’t do anything without the consent of Rudy Giuliani or the president.”

The odds that Trump gets convicted and removed from office just went up considerably.
It seems the Democrats have been sandbagging the Senate Republicans. They will continue producing evidence and putting pressure on the vulnerable Republicans to get on board.
I looked at fox news a couple of hours ago, there was absolutely no mention of ANY of this. Those who rely exclusively will claim this is all fake news when they do finally see it. All because for news is carrying trump's water for him.
I just looked again, no mention of it on the front page. If it's there, it's buried.
MSNBC is playing audio of the interview. It is real.
Oh I know it's real, was just pointing out that if fox news runs this at all, it will be 5 links deep.
Giuliani's letter directly contradicts Trumps contention that all he wanted, acting as president of the United States, was for Ukraine to investigate "corruption" .
Giuliani , acting on Trump's private behalf, was asking Ukraine to find negative information on Trump's political opponent. Giuliani says he was acting on Trump's private behalf in the letter. This is close to a smoking gun.

Lol, if trump walks pence would likely follow. Hello President Pelosi ! hahahahah
Keep that pipe dream alive!!
LOL!
This was all public in May. How is this new?
It's fun to think about but I have no illusions about the impeachment outcome.
Parnas implicates Barr. The whole Durham investigation is now totally suspect.
The truth doesn't matter to those who must not be named.
