One of Rudy Giuliani’s associates arrested last month in connection with shady activities in Ukraine appears to have flipped on Donald Trump and his personal attorney. Lev Parnas, who has agreed to comply with investigators, is claiming that he personally offered a quid pro quo to the incoming government in Kiev at Giuliani's direction, undercutting the president and his lawyer's claims of innocence and suggesting their pressure campaign in Ukraine went further than previously known.
According to an attorney for Parnas, he traveled to Kiev just ahead of Volodymyr Zelensky’s swearing-in in May to deliver an ultimatum: investigate Joe Biden, or Vice President Mike Pence will not attend Zelensky’s inauguration, and Congressionally-approved military aid will be held up. The account to the New York Times, which was strenuously denied by Giuliani and others potentially implicated, suggests that the effort to extort Zelensky into conducting politically-motivated probes on Trump’s behalf began earlier than previously known and included threats beyond the suspended aid and a denied White House visit. It also puts the spotlight back on Giuliani.

You'd think that someone from Ukraine could verify some of this if it actually happened, not that it matters.

Trump caused that. He is punishing the entire country because, like the rest of us, he can't stand you.

That isn't quid pro quo, that is extortion...the closest cousin of bribery since it's hard to tell the difference.

That is a truly ignorant way to decide whether there is any t***h to something, you don't have any other way to arrive at whether something is true? Don't wait for FOX to cover it.

Is that why their subscription rate has fallen over the last two years?
