NEW: Lev Parnas' attorney has written to Attorney General William Barr requesting that the AG recuse himself from the Parnas investigation and prosecution and asks for the appointment of a special prosecutor, according to a court filing.
MORE: The letter from Parnas' attorney to Barr was apparently faxed today.

The letter says that discovery being returned to Parnas was delayed by prosecutors in NY but doesn't say that some of that discovery was delayed because Parnas' phone was locked.
MORE: The letter states that Parnas' discovery was delayed making it difficult for Parnas to respond to Congressional investigators.

What it doesn't say is that Parnas got that subpoena before his arrest and could've complied then, instead he made plans to leave the country.
NBC News: Giuliani associate Lev Parnas asks AG William Barr to recuse himself from his case:

NEW: U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman (who is overseeing the Parnas case) issued a statement following the sentencing of former Rep. Christopher Collins.

He says: "Collins’s greed and disregard for the law have now led to a criminal conviction for insider trading..." (1/3)
Berman cont'd "...and lying to the FBI, his resignation from Congress, and over two years in federal prison. Lawmakers bear the profound privilege and responsibility of writing and passing laws, but equally as important, the absolute obligation of following them...." (2/3)
Berman cont'd "....Collins’s hubris is a stark reminder that the people of New York can and should demand more from their elected officials, and that no matter how powerful, no lawmaker is above the law.” (3/3)

NEW: Chief Judge of the D.C. Circuit Court has ordered that all of the redacted Grand Jury material in the Mueller Report should be made available to the House Judiciary Committee and DOJ must make it available by October 30th.
MORE: Chief Judge Howell writes, "HJC has shown that it needs the grand jury material referenced and cited in the Mueller Report to avoid a possible injustice in the impeachment inquiry, that this need for disclosure is greater than the need for continued secrecy."

@peterschweizer #SquidProJoe & the #BidenProtectionMedia shoot ink jets at those who question #Biden’s threat (which he said was authorized by #Obama), to withhold a BILLION $ from Ukraine if they didn’t fire #Shokin, who says he was investigating #Burisma & #HunterBiden.
@peterschweizer #JoeBiden says he knows nothing about most of this.
Kathleen “requested that Hunter’s access to their joint assets be limited. They owed more than $300,000 in back taxes.”

APRIL, 2019:

Joe Biden's 2020 Ukrainian nightmare: A closed probe is revived thehill.com/opinion/white-…
Two years after leaving office, Joe Biden couldn’t resist the temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time as vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor.

In his own words, on video, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Poroshenko in March 2016 that the Obama admin would pull $1B in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Shokin.

New York Times report from May on Biden, Ukraine and Burisma Holdings:

"No evidence has surfaced that the former vice president intentionally tried to help his son by pressing for the prosecutor general’s dismissal.”

nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/…
NYT - Hunter Biden was warned by associates who had experience in Ukraine to stay away from Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma Holdings, who had worked in the government of former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych.

nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/…
Zlochevsky faced multiple internal/external investigations for money laundering, Yanukovych-era corruption, tax evasion and the granting of gas licenses.

It is unclear if/how seriously Ukraine’s fmr. prosecutor general Viktor Shokin investigated Burisma.

1. #QAnon drops a new placeholder. It adds holder for exculpatory evidence from FISA telephone surveillance, "wiretaps" illegally withheld from FISA Court soon to be DECLASsified. Placeholders will be populated by future news reports. #Q
2. #QAnon Unrelated but worth noting:
US taxpayers are paying for it all, the Paris accord scam in trillions, the Red Cross scam in billions, Foreign Aid scams in trillions, and WAR scams (trillions).
Slush funds everywhere.
Think G Soros pays for #Antifa from his own pocket?

3. #QAnon The US is funding the very people dedicated to its destruction.
The hole is deep.
