1/With the news last night that the President's private Ukraine team was taking money from Russia, we are once at the point where formal Congressional and FBI counter-intel investigations into the President must be established.
2/The President has taken dramatic, and alarming, steps to align US foreign policy w/Russia's over the past year. Fr Syria to Venezuela to Ukraine Trump has broken w/US policy & interests, and done things to advance Putin's.

3/Man this thread has all sorts of new and important information about Parnas, Rudy and lookie here - a senior White House staffer.
4/GOP coming to realize that as backdrop to the Senate trial and 2020 elections there is once again a serious, criminal, Russia related SDNY/FBI investigation into top Trump advisors and GOP operatives.
Do they want to spend next 11 months defending that? gen.medium.com/the-house-shou…

5/Scope of SDNY/FBI Ukraine investigation is far more extensive than people understand. Parnas said Trump directed his work; it's interviewed former GOP Congressman, and is investigating some of biggest players in FL GOP politics. This thing appears huge. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
6/Here's the story about the federal investigation reaching directly into the House Republican Conference. edition.cnn.com/2019/10/15/pol… And we know Parnas has said he also worked directly w/Nunes.
7/Also very likely that one of the reasons the President is going after FBI Director Wray is him allowing this Parnas Ukraine investigation to become as serious as it as. edition.cnn.com/2019/12/10/pol… Barr/Senate Rs attacks on FBI help undermine this ongoing Ukraine inquiry too.
8/Here's a @joshscampbell @cnn report confirming that the Barr/GOP attacks on the FBI could very well be designed to suppress what is a new and politically dangerous criminal investigation into Trump world.
@joshscampbell @CNN 9/Missed this one - part time WH Impeachment advisor Pam Bondi works with Ballard Partners, the Miami based lobbying firm which has been subpoenaed in the SDNY/FBI Ukraine criminal investigation. Yikes.
Good catch by @Maddow.
