Parnas also alleged that Vice-President Pence and Attorney General Barr were involved in the Ukraine scandal, though he did not provide evidence of the AG’s role
Photo: Stephanie Keith/Getty Images On Wednesday, Rudy Giuliani’s fixer in Ukraine Lev Parnas appeared on The Rachel Maddow Show, claiming that the senior staff of the Trump administration were “in the loop” on the president’s push to solicit foreign interference in the 2020 election.
“He was aware of all my movements,” Parnas added. “I wouldn’t do anything without the consent of Rudy Giuliani or the president.” Explaining his access to the Zelensky government, he said that officials were “told to meet with me” because “I was on the ground doing [Trump’s] work.” While there is evidence to corroborate aspects of Parnas’s claims so far, statements on former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch find the fixer in unsubstantiated territory. Without Bolton’s testimony, we do not yet know Bolton’s role in the ouster of Yovanovitch.
Though the fraud guarantor — arrested last year for a campaign finance violation — has a credibility problem, he has also provided lawmakers with a mass of evidence helping to prove some of his allegations and further the investigation into the Ukraine scandal.
