Lev Parnas’s lawyer Bondy told @maddow the discussion with Trump, Fruman and others was dinner talk about cannabis, liquified natural gas, Javelin missiles

...dinner talk 🙄

And Bondy evaded question from @maddow on who gave Parnas negative info on Yovanovitch he shared w/Trump
Parts of the tape were played by @maddow and it’s still shocking to hear Lev Parnas - who worked for several penny stock fraud companies, is embroiled in lawsuits and works for Dmitry Firtash - telling the US president to get rid of Yovanovitch and Trump immediately acts upon it
@maddow Lev Parnas's lawyer Joseph Bondy's early clients included convicted wise guy Peter Gotti "a wonderful client who totally got the shaft because of his last name" and retired NYC detective who was convicted of being a mob hit man

Thread on @NBUkraine & @PrivatBankua: Largest 🇺🇦 bank, will face former owner, the oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky, in #Ukraine appeal court tomorrow to try and reverse controversial ruling that 2016 nationalization was illegal. Kolomoisky either wants bank returned, or compensation.
Let's recap what we know and why it matters: Bank was nationalized with a $5.5 billion gap in its books. It was a Ponzi-like pyramid scheme of related party lending... corporate loan portfolio was 100% NPLs, according to NBU, MinFin and auditors. IMF supported a state takeover.
“The bigger picture (in 2016) was even more concerning, with some 20% of banks… used only for money laundering…” says former NBU Governor, Valeria Gontareva. She closed 89 insolvent and shady banks. Total $15 billion in state recapitalizations bc of dodgy NPLs in this period.

@JoyAnnReid #Ukraine is a top military arms EXPORTING nation.
Hundreds of million$ in U.S. military aid helps Ukraine sell their weaponry to China!
#Trump continually gives military aid to Ukraine to buy U.S. weapons, including #Javelins not used in #Donbas conflict.

@JoyAnnReid Do you believe Ukraine is now fighting for its survival against an invasion of Russian soldiers with thousands of casualties?
It’s nothing like that.
#ObamaBiden denied all military aid to #Poroshenko fearing that lethal aid would provoke Moscow.
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/… #JoeBiden
@JoyAnnReid Any time you hear the #BidenProtectionMedia wailing that #tRump denied (delayed) U.S. military aid to fight off Russia’s proxy mercenaries (not Russian soldiers) remember #Biden’s impotence when #Poroshenko begged for military aid.

🍑Meltdown🍑

Pelosi owns Trump & signals Article 5 re Trump/Putin.

Dbl Jeopardy loophole closed

Trump ignored Syria exit

Syria = BD gift to Putin

Trump’s Syria Fiasco Is Part of Putin’s To-Do List

Giuliani under counterintel inv’n, like Ivanka & likely most of TeamTrump.
🍑Meltdown2🍑

Syria stategy: avoid a violent rush to fill a power vacuum opened by a sudden U.S. exit.

Trump Abandoned almost 5 years of training & dev’t of an allied force, & gift-wrapping it for the RUs & Assad has been devastating to our morale," said the NSC official.
🍑Meltdown3🍑

Trump assigned Barr & Mnuchin to appease Erdogan’s repeated pleas to avoid charges against Halkbank

Halkbank charged w/fraud, money laundering, & sanctions offenses related to the bank’s participation in a multibillion-dollar scheme to evade US sanctions on Iran

If you don't fire the prosecutor investigating my son, we're going to withhold the $1bn in aid."
