NEWS: New evidence posted by the Judiciary Committee includes voicemails between Parnas-Giuliani and Parnas-Toensing, in which she asks for an update to relay to "the big one."

New details w/ @AndrewDesiderio

politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio THE FILES also include a May 14 exchange between Parnas and an official at America First Action PAC in which Parnas sends a smiling selfie while wearing a flak jacket and says he's going to "a meeting."

"Jesus," the official replies. "Be safe."

politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio GIULIANI also asked Lev to get a message to Ukraine's president to "stop acting like a boy" and arrest an oligarch who was under investigation. politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio THE FULL EXCHANGE plus flak jacket photo. politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio And here's a photo of Parnas with Trump Jr. at an inauguration event. politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio ALSO NEW: Another page of Parnas' handwritten notes that was not released yesterday, saying we "get in contact with Z" and investigation of 2016 election conspiracy theory -- and another "case" (presumably Biden). politico.com/news/2020/01/1…
@AndrewDesiderio MORE: The docs include a lengthy text exchange between Parnas and a producer at Fox News trying to orchestrate a Hannnity interview for Victor Shokin, the former Ukrainian prosecutor -- just a week after the House opened its impeachment inquiry,

Parnas was arrested 3 days later.

NEW: Dems unloaded a massive Ukraine arsenal on the Senate today — a voluminous, complicated case featuring transcripts, texts, emails and about 50 video clips (3x more than the entire Clinton trial).

w/ @AndrewDesiderio

politico.com/news/2020/01/2…
@AndrewDesiderio The firehose of evidence was meant, in part, to counter GOP claims that the House rushed its case and didn't do its "homework."

But it also underscored the tension between their 'overwhelming' case and their urgent plea for new witnesses+docs.

politico.com/news/2020/01/2…
@AndrewDesiderio Impossible to overstate the Dems' heavy reliance on video clips to drive home their point. They replayed some of the most devastating ones in primetime — a move that shows they're gearing arguments for the public as much as they are the senators.

WOW: American Oversight announces that it has obtained 192 pages from OMB *tonight* in response to a FOIA on Ukraine military aid. americanoversight.org/document/omb-r…
Docs are *heavily* redacted, but a couple suggest some GOP lawmakers began asking about Ukraine assistance in mid-August, including Sen. Inhofe and Rep. Cook.
ALSO: There's a ton of email traffic on July 25, the same day the Ukraine hold was formally put into place (though it had begun weeks earlier) and the same day as trump's call with Zelensky.

It's incorrect to say Democrats did not seek testimony from all of the witnesses they now want at Senate trial.

They sought all of them, but the WH / administration ordered them not to appear.
Those saying the House should have gone to court to resolve it ignore the WH's position on this (which they've argued in McGahn case): that courts have no role resolving disputes between the Executive and Congress.
In fact, the administration's argument in court has been: If the Congress and WH disagree, Congress has tools to force cooperation, including withholding appropriations, blocking nominations and ...

Impeachment.

🔥#Parnas just corroborated David Holmes’ #impeachment testimony, saying #Trump talked so loudly, Parnas could hear him on calls w/ Rudy #Giuliani. Parnas tells #Maddow he was present “lots of times” when Rudy spoke by phone w/Trump—who “knew everything” about their #Ukraine work
#Parnas says #Pence had to know of #Ukraine pressure campaign. He says Trump sent Pence to meet Zelensky in Poland, using a hurricane as an excuse not to go himself, mad that Zelensky still hadn’t given in to his pressure. So Trump bailed on WW2 ceremony to further the pressure‼️
#Parnas tells #Maddow that Attorney General #BARR was "basically on the team" with #Giuliani and Victoria #Toensing & Joe #DiGenova (lawyers for #Firtash, indicted Ukrainian oligarch linked to #Russian organized crime).

Here is an actual clause of the #USConstitution:

“...no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.”

US Constitution, Article VI, Clause 3

#buescher
#nominee
#Nebraska
Suppose that Article VI had a further Clause, Clause 4, that stated, “no racial identity shall ever be the basis for a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.”
Now, such a clause would prohibit the President from granting or withholding an office based on racial identity, and, in like vein, would prohibit the Senate from withholding consent to a nomination, or granting it, on the basis of racial identity.
