People, having read the totality of the texts between Parnas and Hyde at the instruction of Giuliani, it sounds at the bare minimum they were hiring people to harm Yovanovitch, if not kill her, for a price, in 3/2019.
And there is a reference to the FSB.

And they were successful at bribing one of her people on the inside.
This is unreal.
The President and his private attorney and Parnas (indicted already) and a US Congressional candidate (Hyde) for Connecticut were plotting to remove Yovanovitch, if not cause her physical harm.

And I want to remind you all: once you've assented to the conspiracy and committed an act in furtherance of it, you're responsible for ALL THE ACTS committed by EVERYONE ELSE in the conspiracy, whether you know about them in real time or not.
If indeed Parnas and Hyde were conspiring to harm or murder Yovanovitch, the PRESIDENT is also guilty of those crimes.
This is breathtaking.
The question is whether the @GOP Senators who will vote to remove think its ok to conspire to assault or kill our own Ambassador.

And a word of caution: obviously we need testimony as to the context from Parnas.
But this is scathing evidence and if it reads as it appears to, we've got a VERY serious situation on our hands that goes far beyond election interference, and well into bribery . . .

. . . and possibly conspiracy to murder or assault a US Ambassador, again by the President, his lawyer, a US Congressional candidate, and Lev Parnas.
It's the kind of thing that leaves one nearly speechless.

And I want to remind you all of one more thing: in the infamous summary of the “perfect” call, what did Trump say about Yovanovitch?
That she was going to “go through some things.”
HE KNEW.

After a long debate on another thread, clarifying something here. There is a doctrine related to conspiracy law called the Pinkerton doctrine that I'm referring to here.
For purposes of this tweet, the conspiracy has to be one to harm Yovanovitch (many diff crimes cd apply.)

There's arguably circumstantial evidence of the President's assent to such a conspiracy in his own statements, as mentioned further on in this thread.
And I'm happy to discuss Pinkerton and related concepts on tomorrow's broadcast if anyone would like that (long-time followers will remember that we've done that before, several times, on other courses of conduct within the Mueller investigation and the impeachment investigation)
Thanks all.
