"SNIP....
One of the Florida businessmen who worked with Rudy Giuliani on his hunt for Ukrainian dirt on Democrats has turned over a trove of hard evidence to impeachment investigators including photos and videos, the New York Daily News reports.
"Lev Parnas, who was criminally charged last month in a sweeping campaign finance scheme that overlaps with the House impeachment inquiry, had so much evidence it had to be sent to House probers in several batches.

Lev could be trying to cut an immunity deal with congress, and end up spreading disinformation and screw up the impeachment .

(14,816 posts)He has a plea deal with sdny. Part of that would have involved being queen for a day; he would have to provide them with everything he has, and knows.
If it was electronic, he probably kept copies.
But your worry is warranted. It needs to be verified multiple ways.
He is trying to get limited immunity to appear before the house committee, in secret hearings at first.
If there is anything there, the house will vet it.
But think about it. He met with trump directly. He met with rudy. He met with mooboy. He met with the original ukrainian prosecutor.
He is a thread that runs through the entire loop. This could be huge.

(15,647 posts)that we don't have the votes, but we can't count on a clean election. Even if Joe Biden -- with the highest margin of victory over t-fat-Rump in polls -- is our nominee, they will try to steal the election. Polls don't mean anything in their world, including exit polls.

(14,816 posts)Otherwise the sdny wouldn't be investigating him.. There would be no grand jury. If there is, it means barr has green lighted his prosecution.
That is doubtful, but I'd take it.
