Now on @MSNBC: @Maddow's exclusive interview with indicted Giuliani associate Lev Parnas
"He lied," Parnas says of President Trump's denial that he knows him. "He knew exactly who we were. He knew exactly who I was especially because I interacted with him at a lot of events... I was with Rudy when he would speak to the president — plenty of times."
Giuliani associate Lev Parnas tells @maddow: "It was never about corruption. It was strictly about Burisma, which included Hunter Biden and Joe Biden." on.msnbc.com/35VOWKc

JUST IN: New documents from Lev Parnas include screenshots of text messages to Trump donor and GOP congressional candidate Robert Hyde from a Belgian country-code number, which detail Yovanovitch's movements in Ukraine.
by @jeremyherb @mkraju #Maddow cnn.it/2u6KaMW
@jeremyherb @mkraju In a series of texts, the Belgian number tells Hyde, "She is still not moving they check today again," shortly adding, "It's confirmed we have a person inside." Hyde then forwarded the info Parnas.

It wasn't a just "drunken joke" as Hyde claimed.
#Maddow

Parnas on MSNBC:

Trump became that powerful when he got Bill Barr.

Scariest thing is to be locked into a room and treated as animal when you did nothing wrong [corrects himself]
Rachel: Allegations true?

Parnas: Cultish environment. DC for 2 years, never left the Trump Hotel. Not so much Hunter, but Joe Biden.
Parnas: I don't think VP Biden did anything wrong. Getting rid of crooked AG. A lot of rich people in Ukraine have own agenda. They use us here for their own political stuff.

NEW: Trump pressed Tillerson to pressure DOJ to drop a case against Reza Zarrab, a client of Giuliani's who Mike Flynn agreed to spring from prison as part of his $15M 'kidnap Gulen for Turkey' deal, and who ran his business out of Trump Towers Istanbul.
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Other participants in the Oval meeting were shocked by Trump's request. Tillerson refused, arguing it would constitute interference in an ongoing investigation and repeated his objections to John Kelly, emphasizing that such a request was illegal.
#Maddow
In 2016, Erdogan asked VP Biden to drop Reza Zarrab's case and fire US Atty @PreetBharara. Biden refused

"Zarrab's case is toxic to Erdogan. He began cultivating Trump's team before the election. After Flynn resigned, they began working with Giuliani."

😨Ex CIA Bob Baer suggests the “urgent credible threat” in the whistleblower complaint (that DNI won’t give Congress) ”usually” has something to do w/ someone in White House setting up an illegal backchannel to a foreign govt, or some sort of corruption, discovered by CIA or NSA.
🚨>> Whistleblower complaint involves TRUMP’S communications with a foreign leader that included a “promise” regarded so troubling it prompted an official in the US intelligence community to file a formal whistleblower complaint with the inspector general. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
In the weeks before the “urgent & credible” whistleblower complaint about Trump’s “promise” to a foreign leader, he had interactions with:
1) Russia’s Putin that WH initiated
2) 2 “beautiful” letters from North Korea’s Kim Jong Un
3) Pakistan’s PM
4) Netherlands’ PM

"I have no one watching my back," Cohen has reportedly told friends. "I just did what I was told."

NOPE NOPE NOPE, @MichaelCohen212. You did what TRUMP told you knowing it was illegal – and you were two-bit criminal long before you met Trump – so don't cry about it now.
