Back In The USSR Timeline Part 18 — Devin Nunes

Lev Parnas, a Russian born “businessman” who was paid to run messages from Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine, told the Ukrainians that the US would do more than withhold military aid if they didn’t cooperate. He threatened them with withholding other aid, too. He and Igor Fruman were picked up at the airport trying to flee the country hours before they were supposed to testify before Congress. They were arrested on criminal charges for violating campaign finance rules. They used a fake company to funnel foreign money into Republican super PACs and campaigns. Kevin McCarthy was one of the Republicans they gave money to. When he got caught, he acted shocked and took the $100,000 and donated it to charity. Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida got a hefty donation too. He said he’d never heard of Lev and Igor even though he was caught on video hugging them.

Once he was arrested, Lev agreed to not only talk to authorities and Congress, but he did all sorts of lengthy media interviews, too. He let the public know that he had dirt on all sorts of Republicans. He agreed to testify that Devin Nunes went to Vienna to meet a former Ukrainian prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who Vice President Biden had wanted removed in 2016 because he wasn’t doing enough to prosecute corruption. He helped Rudy cook up a scheme using Biden’s son, Hunter, who was on the board of a Ukrainian energy company, Burisma as revenge. Lev Parnas gave the House Intelligence Committee audio and video of Devin Nunes meeting with Rudy Giuliani and Trump. He gave the House thousands of pages of material.

Andriy Kobolyev, the CEO of the Ukranian state owned oil and gas company Naftogaz, said he’d be happy to testify that Rudy Giuliani, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman attempted to leverage their political influence to land lucrative contracts with Naftogaz. Everybody was having a good time.

Trump claimed that he didn’t know Lev Parnas but he had known him for over 30 years. Lev worked for Trump’s dad in the 80s. Lev and Igor were invited to dinner at the White House and got their picture taken with Trump doing the thumbs up. Lev had his picture taken with a lot of Republicans. None of them have ever met him.

Robert Hyde, a candidate for Congress in Connecticut, had Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch under surveillance and would send regular text messages to Rudy Giuliani about her whereabouts such as, “They are willing to help if we/you would like a price” and “If you want her out they need to make contact with security.” Rudy was tracking and following her.

Trump is on tape talking to Lev Parnas about Marie Yovanovitch. He told him to “take her out.” Since Lev didn’t work for the government he couldn’t fire her so what did he mean? Marie was told to leave Ukraine immediately. Why was she in danger? Who wanted to harm her?

Devin Nunes was the top ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee and was tasked with investigating Trump, Rudy and Ukraine but he was in on the scam. He spent $57,000 on flights for secret trips to Austria compliments of tax payers. Trump gave him the presidential medal of freedom and a job running his new social media company after he left office. How much more proof does anybody need to know that Nunes was a big help to Trump.

Devin Nunes was in regular contact with Rudy Giuliani and Lev Parnas and there are phone records to prove it. So was one of his staffers.

A reporter from the Intercept asked Devin Nunes about his relationship with Lev Parnas and he freaked out and ran. Then he turned around in a panic and took a picture of the guy with his camera then posted, with hands shaking: This guy stalked me in hotel lobby after my appearance on @foxandfriends Saturday AM maybe he was in Vienna with @cnn. Q the laugh track.

As committee chair, Devin Nunes took advantage of his position and spun everything to be all the Democrats’ fault. He accused them of trying to get nude photos of Trump. He bashed the media and referred to reporters as the “puppets of the Democratic party” (he sued CNN for defamation.) He demanded to know the identity of the whistleblower. He should not have been on the committee at all because he was part of the crime. There are phone records to prove it. He should have been a fact witness, not the chair of the investigation committee.
