Dems Drop New Evidence Tightening Trump's Link To Lev Parnas | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
This is insane. You couldn’t write a better script.
@Julie Clark The thing is Julie (if this is your real name)… it’s not related to the subject here… but I’m glad it makes you feel better.
222light Atoms The Russian Mushroom tapes? 🍄🔍
@Julie Clark That’s why I get all my news from Alex Jones and Breitbart.
/s
There sure is a lot going on for this whole ordeal to be a big ol nothing burger.
@Julie Clark 👄What exactly was the CONTEXT of Obama’s comment?!! Remember…I asked for CONTEXT!!!
@Julie Clark 👄Obama did not give $$ to our enemies!!! If you want to continue to spread debunked alt-facts…go back to 🦊!!!
@Rene Curry Are you asking because you honestly don’t know??? Obama gave a message to be relayed to Putin, ON MIC, that after re-election he would “go easy” on Putin, removing sanctions and such…. Yet Trump is the Russian puppet 😂
@Lyn Ryall “Theses honerable family”…. Umm, are you even an adult, or were you telling a child what to type or something?
@Lyn Ryall what respect did they give the USA?.other countries can kiss my a.maga 2020.
Too bad Trump has successfully managed to turn the U.S. into a fact free zone where truth, evidence and rule of law no longer seem to matter. Any one remember when an insecure, dimwitted, lying conman wasn’t considered presidential material?
@Palaven one video where there are how many people.
@3LD I admire you for describing them in such diplomatic terms. I would not be as kind as you.
@Russ K He should run along. His mom probably needs the computer to sign up for yoga classes.
@aquelpibe how does he keep helping him? How is Trump working for Putin? The fact president Trump is giving lethal aid to Ukraine alone negates the idea.
You are one DUMB PERSON THAT A FACT
Don’t be surprised if there’s another “distraction” in the works.
@Mike w This time
@TVLouie Don’t just be surprised… be prepared.
I hope he bombs San Francisco next.
Lev is coming for Trump Barr Nunes Mulvany Pence and more. Thanks Lev.
Lev could go out the 26th floor of Trump tower…come over Lev…”we patch up this misunderstanding”!
I sure hope so.
They are a cancer on the republic.
@bingbonga binga vanquished…some like Lev will vanish!
@regattachampion
Trump picked him out of the yellow pages based on that name
They are all going down,vled by that fuckwad, the ignorant orange traitor.
@John Rogan Lev/Avenattii 2020!! oh they will be in jail.. never mind
If it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, then all the Republicans will shout “GOOSE!” and run around in circles.
1 18 20 Hey@Sw , I too have been trying to follow the money; it gets ugly fast. Pretty sure DJT’s an asset after that Helsinki speech & the meeting without an American translator. Hunter Biden is a flawed human with a LOT of issues; you don’t sleep with your dead brother’s wife-ever! So, the deal he had with Burisma, certainly not ethical; desperate people (drug addicts), do desperate things. The China Co., apparently, he took no money & the Co. was closed. I’m kinda waiting to see how Bizzaro World plays out & I’ll definitely be #VOTE2020. Be well. v
@Virginia Tyree Hunter Biden was a board member of BHR investment management fund in China.
It’s true that politicians’ kids benefit from their parents one way or the other. It’s naive to think otherwise.
However, we should wonder out of all these other legit/clean countries to do business with, why Hunter Biden with such lousy personal history has to do business with both corrupt countries like Ukraine and China, which happen to gain lots of benefits from US either through aids or trades or stealing of intellectual property.
1 18 20 Hey@Sw, I was aware he was on the board. We do have a law concerning bribery; DJT wants to get rid of the law. Money, causes people to do funny things. USA sold it’s soul concerning the intellectual-info. I thought, what? The Communist Regime @ the time basically said we get the blueprints/codes, etc. or no deal. The USA Companies filed complaints that went nowhere; who doesn’t want access to a billion people? Now, they think they can clean that mess up; I read that area isn’t quite clear yet with this new China deal. So, we gave the information, keys to the kingdom (intellectual property etc.), to the Chinese & wonder what happened. &, of course add in all the espionage that the Chinese have been involved in, it becomes a very convoluted mess. The Chinese aren’t thinking about embracing freedom. Not sure I have solutions. Why can’t we all get along. China’s & Russia’s political systems will eventually move toward democracy. Be well. v
Sw P.S.: My apologies for going on too much…
@Virginia Tyree It becomes very obvious to me or someone who don’t worship cable news why Nancy pelosi moved impeachment in such a rush knowing trump would never be removed in the Senate.
All these dirty secrets will not be further investigated by trump on behalf of the people who deserve or care to know the truth behind all these deals within the democrat party.
Looks like pelosi has the most to gain besides all those gold carved pens and a piece of nonsense while people in her district are cleaning up human feces on the streets.
Well done finding the Belgian connection.
I live in Belgium and now I feel ashamed because someone from over here is involved in shenanigans to benefit the most repulsive character in modern-day American politics: autocrat and racist fearmonger Donald J Trump 🤮
Google.
Trump – “I don’t know rudy Giuliani”
j rich totally making a Mariah Carey move 😂😂😂
The old Matthew 22:57 argument: Peter: “I don’t know the man.”
🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂become stupid already Trum
In a few days he’s going to start saying he doesn’t know himself
“Oh what a tangled web we weave
When we practise to deceive,
We play our games and tell our lies
And synchronise our alibis. “
@Brandon J so your russians master are very proud of you. Tou should be up there with Moscow mitch. And when you dumb self for get all the American people and troops he put in harm’s way is not patriotic/America. He literally gave too secret information to the russians and a spy that we had implanted in the Kremlin had to be emergency evacuated. That’s not american or looking our for fellow american.
@shogun harvey, donald judas trump is a member of team putin, until he gets caught, then he will be on his own
@shogun harvey You should write fantasy novels more often! Thanks for the fictional characterization! Keep imagining random mens lives to prove your point!
@janusz delondre ok brother!
@janusz delondre – And it’s not like #45’s been ‘subtle’ about his 🇷🇺 preferences…
Consider *how cretinously giddy* #45 was at Putin’s invite to *the communists “May Day” celebration* in Moscow.
*Or* that *only* ‘Russian press’ *were allowed* to film #45 and Putin in July of 2019…as Putin joked about “…getting rid…” of reporters.
And #45 *laughed right along* with the former *KGB agent who rules over* Russia.
*No* other American President *would’ve allowed* such insults to *our country AND constitutionally-protected ‘free press’.*
But #45 loves his -banker- -mentor- ‘like-minded leader’.
*So* embarrassing for America… 😒
Why has the Attorney- General been visiting people in jail, like Epstein, when he should have been investigating this matter.
@Jim J. Soooo, you’re perfectly fine with a president who breaks the law, scoffs at the constitution, and lies about everything? You’ve got to see how that disregard for protocol will leave the citizens powerless. Voiceless. You will lose everything the United States stands for. What are you telling your kids? It’s okay to lie, to ridicule fellow American people, but most of all, it’s okay to break the law? Get some self respect!
@Rory Cannon Biden was Vice President, Biden’s son thrown out of the military gets a job that he knows nothing about making tens of thousands a month from a known corrupt company that was under investigation at the time and Biden on video bragging about his quid pro quo and Hunter Biden in an interview states that he probably would not have gotten the job , if his father was not Vice President when asked and you think because the corrupt anti American Democrats say he did nothing wrong, that he is cleared, Barr and Durham’s criminal investigation may prove different, we’ll have to wait and see !
There is something strange about that when general is visiting prisoners like that…trying to shut their mouths or else they will been murdered…right ??? That what it seems like…
At this point how can his supporters deny he didn’t see this coming? 🤣
Have you looked at the comments in the Fox channel?
@RFI-Crypto Lab
By becoming the third that has gotten impeached. At least you got that one right.
you are not going to win. i am just leveling with you. NBC is feeding you propaganda. Lev is known all over Ukraine as a con artist and a grifter… his racket is that he appears to have access to high level Americans and then he takes bribes saying he know Trump, Rudy and Pense. This is according to top Ukraine officials. Nothing Lev says is true. Dont you find it odd that no one on MSNBC ever interviews the Ukrainians? Everyone has denied knowing him. But they will never tell you this. It propaganda. Look at what they did to Bernie. DNC controls the media to take out opponents with smears and lies.
1 18 20 Hey@Arikian, That was very kind of you. I didn’t dial the # though. Be well. v
1 18 20 Hey@eric ocean , I have enough issues getting through the day; Fox, too much drama. Thanks for the suggestion. Be well. v
They’re not making allowance for the “great a-brain leak” that is the OrangeDome.
More pictures of Trump and Parnas than me and my missus
When the “president”* says he knows something, he knows nothing.
And when he says he knows nothing, he knows something. And it’s something bad..
–Windsor Mann
Meanwhile…
*’Snowflake #45’* had *yet ANOTHER ‘twittyfeed tantrum’* today, *whining* about how ‘unfair’ *everyone’s* been *to* him. 👶
Poor put-upon prezzy… 😏
@Kevin NYC
Majority of americans know that DjT, the impeached president*, is a liar, conman, grifter and sociopath who has betrayed his wives and his country.
@Cool Beans lmao imagine hating msnbc so much that you forgot that they actually told the truth
@d. nuzzio biden did nothing wrong in ukraine. that is a fact.
and now cue “the call”
God I miss tan suits and Dijon Mustard being the scandal.
@CynAnne1 https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2018/ag-underwood-announces-stipulation-dissolving-trump-foundation-under-judicial
https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2018/attorney-general-underwood-announces-lawsuit-against-donald-j-trump-foundation
you may find these helpful (FEDERAL links outlining trump’s defrauding of his own charity and links to the judges decision. (trump lost, big time))
@Kevin NYC lmao obama didn’t even have a single connection to fast and furious but you pretend that he orchestrated it.
@Kevin NYC Mexico pay for it? Oh yeah that’s right he took the money from our military to fund it. What promises exactly has the entitled, elitist New York liberal Trump kept?
The entangled web of corruption and criminality is turning out to be far larger than anyone knew…
@Jim Brown lmao have you ever considered that you might be possible wrong?
@Jim Brown “On
June 9, 2016, for example, a Russian lawyer met with senior Trump Campaign officials Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and campaign chairman Paul Manafort to deliver what the email proposing the meeting had described as “official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary.” The materials were offered to Trump Jr. as “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.” The written communications setting up the meeting showed that the Campaign anticipated receiving information from Russia that could assist candidate Trump’s electoral prospects, but the Russian lawyer ‘ s presentation did not provide such information”
the mueller report found collusion.
What corruption?
Into biden, hunter and Hillary?
Thats the only thing trump wants to learn more about and he has every right under all the rumors regarding hillary, biden and hunter!
@Rory Cannon quite frankly if hunter did get hired at a foreign company because of VP Bidens position then what about ivankas and Jareds foreign businesss dealings? I bet they get special treatment! And Bidens job was get the corrupt Ukraine prosecutor out for NOT going after criminals! Supported by Republicans and our allies in Europe! Of coarse trump supporters will either will deny this, not answer the question, change the subject or blame a democrat! Math!
Most monarchies aren’t supposed to run like this one.
This ain’t a monarchy.
Jackie Hancock
When the guy in charge is above the law, a monarchy is precisely what you have.
@Son of Radium A winner. 👍
Son of Radium when you can tell me what law he broke then I will try and take your post seriously. The dems say that not above the law line all the time but didn’t bother to include a crime in the articles of impeachment. Let’s just make it up as we go, people won’t notice.
@Nevyn of OZ 1973 We’d have been conquered by now!
Soon enough he won’t know his wife and children…
Ivy GAWD! I wouldn’t claim him either. The boy has some chromosomes missing. Stupid as a stick.
Tots Mini 😄😂🤣. That’s funny.
what wife? what children?
@Tots Mini Optics like this reporter making up FAKE stories and getting fired for it and still being able to lie to the public
Why is no one saying that it sounds as if they were planning to harm her?.
@surely you joke, mein failüre there might be an argument that they should have been investigating months ago when they originally got this information.
It’s completely sick what these people have done to this woman who is a consummate professional and an admired life long diplomat. The fact that the Ukrainians instantly announced an investigation of this outrage while the US DOJ has done nothing says a lot about the state of the US right now. There is no DOJ–it is just a tool of the president, and there is no Legislative branch–it is controlled by the Democrats so the Republicans just ignore them and don’t recognize their authority or obey their lawful requests for documents or testimony, they even ignore their sub poenas. As for the executive branch it consists of one man, who happens to be the worst person on earth.
Wok Gees Good question!
To me, it sounded very much like they were preparing a contract killing…. on a member of the US government!
Putin’s power knows no bounds. The USA is his!
generationofswine
just make sure you vote.
and get out the vote.
we need to remove him peacefully, or we’ll never hear the end of it.
vote him out, and then make him irrelevant.
I’ve heard millions and trillions of people say that Trump is guilty.
Koochakoo rocknroll hoochykoo! / crook like him belong in jail ….
Koochakoo rocknroll hoochykoo! We need a bigger bus. I heard that too. Take care.
Too bad the gop will keep him in office. They are crooks looking out for each other.
The Republicans know he’s guilty that’s why they’re trying to fix the Senate trial
