“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.”

2. Beware of deliberate disinformation

This evidence belongs with the SDNY, not congress.

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

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.

12. Do you have a source for the SDNY plea deal - not reported that I have seen

I know Parnas' lawyer has said he's willing to cooperate, but have not heard any reporting that a deal had been agreed to- that would be front page news, and it hasn't shown up anywhere.

6. Everyone in Trump's orbit will be fall guys. If his ship goes down, he's taking everyone with him.

9. He's not going down by any means other than the 2020 election -- and even that is in doubt. Not

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.

8. he does appear to be barr's fall guy....

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.
