Last night on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show, Lev Parnas, a Ukranian associate of Rudy Giuliani, dropped asuper-sized bag of dimes on the Trump Crime Family with regard to all things Ukrainegate-ian.
Some of the key points:
Donald Trump was manipulating the president of Ukraine to help Trump smear political rival Joe Biden.
Vice President Pence was in the loop.
Attorney General William Barr is up to his neck in the mess.
So was House Intel Committee Ranking member Devin “Dude, where’s my cow?” Nunes.
Republican activist Robert Hyde, whose WhatsApp chats with Parnas suggest he was surveilling U.S. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, got cut off because he sounded crazy and/or drunk.
Oh, one more thing: that was from what turned out to be “part one” of the interview. The second half, along with new reporting, goes live on-air this evening at (pmEDT on The Rachel Maddow Show. Bring popcorn and beverages.
