Donald Trump has a whole new Lev Parnas problem
The thing about using inept henchmen is that they’re likely to get caught – and once they do, they’re likely to flip on you. Because most of Donald Trump’s original inept henchmen are already in prison for their roles in conspiring with Russia to rig the 2016 election, Trump was forced to use even more inept henchmen in his plot to rig the 2020 election.
Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman got caught in the act while trying to leave the country, and now Lev seems intent on singing a song about Donald Trump’s crimes. On New Year’s Eve we brought you the story of how Lev was about to get his personal electronic devices back from prosecutors, and how he was asking the judge for permission to turn over that evidence to the House:
If the evidence that Lev Parnas previously gave to the House wasn’t particularly usable, it was probably because the Feds were still sitting on Parnas’ communications devices. Now the House is about to gets its hands on more substantive evidence against Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani. Keep in mind that Nancy Pelosi still has yet to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate. She has the option to hold more hearings and even bring additional articles of impeachment.
Sure enough, the judge ruled today that Lev Parnas is indeed allowed to turn over this evidence to the House. We’ll see what comes of it, but Trump has a problem here – and it isn’t going away.
