Lev Parnas Remarks On Role Of Devin Nunes In Trump Ukraine Scheme | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
No surprise about Nunes, anyone who defends and protects Trump is a criminal.
I wonder how his lawsuit against CNN is going; you know, the one in which he claims they lied about his Lev Parnas contacts.
@Russian Bot His rally attendance proves nothing. Independent polls prove everything and when even Fox News polls show that he is not supported by the majority of Americans then I call BS on your statements.
@Russian Bot except most of what you say is NOT true for the Red states. New manufacturing jobs? More are going to California than to the Rust belt. Most American families that support Trump are NOT better off than they were 3 years ago, as the Red states have not recovered from the Recession. The Blue states on the other hand are really hot economically.
The RepubliCONS are real good at getting dupes to vote against their own interests.
Somebody PLEASE, put Nunes away!
I wanna see the Republicans deny witnesses in the trial….i want the world to see how compromised the really are🤨
Even with this and all the other illegal and unconstitutional acts, brain damage tRump supporters will still say some of the dumbest shiggity you’ve ever heard.
@soul1 yep I got into an argument yesterday with a trump cultists that all of this is all made up. 😳 I left that conversation smdh!
@Starkissed I am left speechless at times. Unbelievable!!! I travel the world and haven’t met anyone like them. I’m serious 😞
@Starkissed I’ll be happy to have a nice, civil conversation with any of you nitwits if you can stop jerking each other off long enough to type.
This confirms the Republicans in Congress are disgusting and will do whatever it takes to win an election.
@Russian Bot and they will cheat again! They will need Putin’s help again too!
Win an election? Heck half of them are trying to stay out of jail
Lev P brings down the Trump , Pence , Nunes and other’s Remarkable about time.
Republicans party of shames
Nunes is the fall guy. If hes this dumb, how smart can his voter base be?
@Joshua Williams
Has Nunes abandoned the GOP for the new “agian” party that represents aging people?
@Linus A good one 😂😂😂😂
Dumber than amoebas.
Lindalee Law they’re Republican so .. dumb as rocks.
Joshua Williams hello rock
Devin is a traitor. PUT HIM OUT OF BUSINESS .
Never underestimate the dedication of the people of Fresno to vote Republican at any and all costs…
There are many good, ethical dairy farms in Northern California (Sonoma, Napa, and Mendocino counties, in particular).
@star burst Resign AND go to jail.
Lindalee Law i like that. Look for a house painter.
@RyanPHill77 Not so fast. Nunes won his 2016 election by double digits. In 2018 he had a good opponent and hard working volunteers closed the gap to I think 5 or 6 points. We still lost, but the good people of Fresno ARE persuadable. His leading opponent, Phil Arballo, is raising a lot of money — don’t give up — throw a little more his way and we may yet see a Democrat in that seat.
At this point , the whole Republican Party has dirt
@Erroneous Monk you live inside a goddamned fantasyland
@Hayden Williams Well, if you can’t provide all the guilty verdicts, just say so. You don’t have to call your comment “moronic”. That’s being a bit harsh, even if it’s true. But I’ll take your advice and google DFIPSH*T because I have no idea what that is. Maybe remove the male reproductive organ from your mouth before speaking.
@Erroneous Monk you failed

Bill cheated on his wife. Trump cheats in everything. Who is more affected because of it?
Nunes, Pence, Barr, Fox News, everyone was in on the criminal enterprise. Now on to Graham and McConnell.
@B.J Cameron Neither is trump. Trump surrounded himself with these sleazebags to undermine our elections. Democrats are not good at choosing their friends? Easy glass house. Last I checked 45 only gets close with criminals who end up in jail. So your saying criminals who testify against mob bosses shouldn’t be trusted? You’re saying only angels can testify in court against a criminal enterprise? Come to the light side, we have facts.
@B.J Cameron Sorry dude. This IS our country. This is the UNITED STATES of America not the divided states of this is our country get out. We’ve been fighting anti-immigrant nationalists like you since this country was founded. This mythical idea of YOUR country is a fantasy created to find a sense of purpose. Get a hobby.
B.J Cameron – I really couldn’t care if Rachel Maddow is a hermaphrodite. What matters here is her ability to interview Parnas in a way that is thorough and intelligent. I think she achieved that. And I did not acknowledge that Parnas is a Ukrainian of dubious means. I couldn’t have. I thought he was American.
B.J Cameron – I don’t think anybody knows yet whether the deal is good or bad. I’ve read various opinions.
Erroneous Monk – aw, please. You sound like donald trump, who is no beauty himself.
🇺🇸 Benjamin Franklin — “He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.”
Are you shocked? Another suicide

He who, not he that.
Devin Nunes, the stooge. What a sad sad legacy he’s made for himself. Stooge.
@John Barron 😂😂😂😂 Trump would toss me over the wall because of my name? 😳 You’re a deranged fool. 😂👌
Ignacio Couce Then why are you so full of conspiracy theory nonsense? Get a grip!!
@Ignacio Couce hahahahaha liar liar pants on fire! You have never read the Mueller report, it’s clear from your standard Rethuglican talking points WHICH ARE JUST MORE LIES!!
Ignacio Couce Go scratch troll.
@Bojana Albahari he is very litigious
Parnas speaks better English than IMPEACHED donnie dump.
Yve Bella – most people speak better English than trump. But I’m surprised you’re surprised. Parnas has been the USA since age of 3.
oltedders – why would sound like Melania? He grew up in USA. Melania did not.
Susan Forrest – Parnas is American. He campaigned for trump, as did his wife.
Pak De – well said.
@Dark Justice …your question was answered in your sentence that followed. If you do not like People from Slovenia or Croatia just come out and voice your prejudice..
nunes is a crap..questioning during the inquiry when he was primary involved. ethics should look in to it..
Surely they will!
Watch the fox news interview with Nunes. At 4:00 he is busy telling the host that Lev is a lier but she hits him with how he called hos personal cell phone. His face and attempts to explain are priceless
Rs get rid of ethics committees when they take office.
Republicans really can’t spin that they don’t need witnesses. This is honest and devastating…
He’s literally saying things that implicate himself.
So has everyone else. DT included.
Well, I guess Nunes is pretty good at keeping his mouth shut. 🤐
@Calvin Bottoms
Nunes is still in denial publicly.
The presidency was a respected title at one time. Is amazing how things change.
It will take years to fix all the damage that has been done. This corrupt administration has seated judges in lifetime positions.
And now you can see why Devin was trying to bury it all in the house intelligence committee
Pulitzer for Rachel, no doubt, she has earned one for this. America thanks you.
I totally agree.
Before, or after she loses the lawsuit?
@Salvador Hardin
What lawsuit is that? She’s only had one to date and it was dismissed by the judge.
@oltedders Really? You sure? Cause I can’t find anything about a dismissal.
@Salvador Hardin
What court case are you talking about? Relatives of State Department employees who died in Benghazi attempted to sue Clinton for wrongful death but the case was dismissed.
Nunes sat in impeachment hearings knowing that he is involved in the scandal. Nunes deserves PRISON time. Obstruction of Justice
King, That’s why he (Nunes) was trying to find out who the whistle blower was in the House Hearing. That’s ALL he was interesting in. But Adam Schiff was too smart for him. He instantly caught and stopped him! Go Adam!
@Caribbean Girl seen schiff’s district ???? and you back him? Disgusting trash. You should have to go live there
“Everyone was in the loop.”
-Gordon Sondland
It was a true statement
Parnas is the Man. His lawyer is just chillin’ not talking too much. Listening, keeping it real. This is good. Basically Parnas just lit up Devin (Liar) Nuñez too.
