Lev Parnas Speaks
The Senate trial is officially underway, with the Chief Justice and members of the Senate sworn in this week. But in a last-minute addition to the evidence, an associate of Rudy Giuliani gave the House of Representatives documents that shed new light on the Ukrainian pressure campaign. Parnas, who is out on bond on federal campaign finance charges, also spoke publicly this week for the first time about his involvement in the scheme.
