Lev Parnas interview

This will have some pretty big reverberations.

Parnas was working for the president. The president knew him well. Parnas was representing the president in meetings with Ukraine officials. Parnas told the Ukrainian government that ALL aid was dependent on the announcement of investigations. It was never about corruption but rather the Bidens. Pence canceled his trip to the new president’s inauguration after the Ukrainians said they would not make the announcement. Pence was in the loop re the quid pro quo. Everyone was in the loop. Pence met with Zelensky to fix the issue on 1 Sept. Pence failed to get them to announce the investigation. Bolton then went to Ukraine, and when he got back he resigned. Bolton was butting heads with Giuliani over Ukraine and Venezuela. Bolton knew what was going on re pressure for an announcement into investigations.

Look for a lot of throwing Parnas under the bus from Trump, Pence et al but it seems Bolton will be able to confirm much or all of this.

More re Yovanovitch...

A Bolton corroboration would be nice. Because I don't much trust Parnas on his own.

But Barr is in an awful position. He's in charge of the prosecution of Parnas. And simultaneously it sounds like a direct participant in the actions of Parnas? I think he should probably recuse himself at some point? Because if Parnas charges get dropped or something, it won't look good at all.

Point of clarity to hopefully drive it home (yeah right) to the ball washers.

They were pushing for an announcement of an investigation into Biden. They were not pushing for an actual investigation. They didn’t give a shit about whether or not Biden was investigated. They only cared about an announcement.

It had nothing to do with corruption. It had everything to do with hurting Trumps main rival.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

Why Yovanovitch was targeted:

She was in the way to get the announcement re investigations of the Bidens.

Re Hyde:

Hyde is “a weird character.” He would hang out at Trump Hotel. Always drunk.

Re Hyde’s texts:

He was either drunk or trying to make himself bigger. I mostly didn’t respond much. I was warned to stay away from him. I do not believe Yovanovitch was ever in any danger.

Re AG Barr:

He was basically on the team.

It is ridiculous that Barr has not recused. The whistleblower also said Barr was involved.

Re Firtash:

Firtash team said Andrew Weissmann (Mueller prosecutor) was doing something illegal. We were tasked to get that information in order to try to discredit the Mueller investigation. John Solomon gave me certain documents and we had to promise Firtash that his case would be worked out (his extradition case). Two Fox News lawyers went on the payroll of Firtash to work on his extradition case getting dropped. This was all linked to getting Ukraine to announce the investigation into the Bidens, as well as the earlier attempts to discredit the Mueller investigation.

Re Barr:

I heard many people talking on the phone with Barr. He knew everything that was going on. He was basically on the team.

(Recall Barr expressed surprise about why Trump mentioned him on the July call.)

Re Nunes:

We met a few times at Trump hotel. Then I was introduced to his aide Derek Harvey and told Nunes couldn’t get too involved because he was on the Ethics Committee. Nunes already knew a lot of what was going on. I was in shock watching the hearings with Nunes chairing the hearing, and it was hard and scary to see them lie so much.

Some key takeaways:

Pence, Pompeo, Barr, Giuliani, Nunes, Bolton, and many others were directly involved and knew everything.

Parnas worked for Trump and Giuliani and spoke with them directly on a constant basis.
Trump knew everything.

More than just military aid was withheld - all aid was withheld - essentially everything was contingent on a public announcement and more.

Parnas once again claimed Trump didn't give a shit about corruption in Ukraine.

Parnas is willing to testify.

Be really funny if he testifies and Republicans try and dismiss him because he is indicted for crimes. He could just be like, "You mean the crime that was giving you a bunch of money, just to clarify I can't be trusted because you took my money?"

Barr is in an awful position if you thing of him as the AG. If you think of him as a coconspirator, he's sitting in the catbird seat.

Fox News current headline:
Parnas, in rare interview, undermines House Dems' claims that Trump team surveilled Ukraine ambassador

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Odds are this will come to nothing, just like everything else.

This president stole money from veterans to have a portrait of himself painted and the GOP and supporters just yawned.

These new revelations will mean nothing.

This front page story is too too much. It should be interesting and then some. As a back page related story I would like to hear of the details as to how his felony investigation took off and how Parnas and Fruman were then apprehended at the airport on their way out of the country. That was one fine apprehension that Barr was probably unaware of beforehand.

I was going to ask ACE yesterday if there was anything that could swing him on the impeachment. If the Parnas interview doesn’t, then nothing will.

The Firtash stuff is perhaps the worst. Cooking up dirt in exchange for quashing an extradition order, with FoxNews lawyers and the AG involved in the scheme, and all coordinated by Trump and Giuliani.

Now we know why Shokin gave that false affidavit claiming Biden wanted him fired because he was investigating Burisma. He gave that affidavit recently as part of Firtash’s defense. And why is team Trump trying to protect a corrupt Russian oligarch? How much deeper might those ties go with his property business?

Pun intended but I am not joking. He's so fucking corrupt it's not funny at all.
