Parnas releases extended audio from 2018 dinner with Trump

Lev Parnas, a former associate of President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, has released an hour-long, mostly audio tape of a private dinner attended by President Donald Trump and Donald Trump Jr.

Parnas, currently under federal indictment by prosecutors in New York, released the tape from the April 30, 2018, dinner after ABC News first reported its existence and obtained a portion of the conversation in which Parnas and Trump appear to discuss the former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine.

As ABC News reported on Friday, Parnas appears to say to Trump: "The biggest problem there, I think where we need to start is we gotta get rid of the ambassador. She's still left over from the Clinton administration. She's basically walking around telling everybody, 'Wait, he's gonna get impeached, just wait.'"

Marie Yovanovitch, to whom they appear to be referring, actually had served in the State Department since the Reagan administration.
