- According to former Giuliani associate Lev Parnas, President Trump "knew exactly what was going on" as Parnas pressured Ukraine officials to take actions that would bolster Trump's chances at being reelected in 2020. #Monologue #Impeachment #LevParnas

McConnell is already not impartial. Arrest him. Hold him accountable to full extent of the law for violating the oath.
In our dreams I'm afraid.
He would first have to violate the oath, then you would have to adduce evidence that he actually violated the oath and did not come to the impartial conclusion that the evidence did not suffice to convict, which would only be possible if you could somehow look into his head. His statement that he will not be an impartial juror to the press can easily be defended as "promotion stunt for the stupid voters".
You know, even with Joe Average, if one thing is said on TV and the complete opposite is said in court, it is still your obligation to prove beyond any reasonable doubt that lying took place in court, lying on TV is not a crime. If it were, we would have to build a lot of new prisons.
@@Nyruami well put.
"We lied cheated and stole." Pompeo said gleefully about his time in the CIA.
What law m8???
This USA
Laws here only apply to minority.
So who is going to charge Mitch McConnell with perjury?
I don't know who that person is. Is he related to Moscow Bitch?
the Canadians
Lindsay said the same thing Moscow Mitch said!. They are vile anti-Americans!.
kentucky
He must repeat his remark from prior to the oath. I think a whole bunch of folks should end up down at GITMO for this. On bread and water. For what they did to Yovanovitch alone!
"No amount of evidence will ever persuade an idiot."

That sums up most of the Republican party. So true.
Yep. Rethuglicrooks & MAGA morons are incurable.
Absolutely perfect quote.
ojars zvaigzne - They aren’t stupid, THEY’RE CRIMINALS!!! They all want their piece of the ill-gotten pie.
So if Mitch openly states he can't be impartial based on testimony and justice laws etc. get him the hell out of the senate chambers.
jd dj - LITERALLY! It’s blantanly obvious he is not going to properly do his job (that he SWORE to do) in this trial!! How!??!

www.constituteproject.org/constitution/United_States_of_America_1992
the fact of the matter is.....does this not demonstrate how corrupt these people whom we have supposedly elected are. Doesn't matter if Republican or Democrat they all are cut from the same cloth. Liar, Cheats, Murders, Thieves. For years we have watched the same crap from both parties, as they all laugh at how dumb down the people of this nation are as they keep depositing their pay checks with pretty healthy sums of which they voted themselves their raises, full health benefits, ect. While most of the taxpayers are struggling. They dangle the carrots and when we reach to take hold they are pulled away. It should be clear to all by now what the smoke and mirror game is. And the bad guys are winning. Trump calls it THE ART OF THE DEAL. Look how many have and are buying into his deals that he has saved for this last year as part of his strategy to make him look good as he seek re election. It has been written about these times and how the world will be deceived. So I encourage all to reason, to look and hear. It is also written "It is well for us to come together and reason," "Those with eyes will see and those with ears will hear" ...and this will reveal Truth and Truth will set you free. Those who want to continue to buy into any of these people who want to tickle our ears with half truths, lies, false info, deception, etc. will remain deaf, dumb, and blind. I hope there are more and more people who will realize what is at stake here and take the road of truth and elect another supposed leader like the same supposed leader that holds the position of power now. If the whole world will be deceived ask yourself who what where when and who is rallying behind the actions. Look at all the leaders around the world and see how the people of many many countries are not joyous with their supposed leaders and how many of them are all corrupt. Do we have to be hit over our heads with a brick?

Some day Maddow can make the announcement - “Ladies and Gentlemen, Citizens and non-citizens, I am here to tell you that the longest, most criminally disgusting and almost the worst nightmare in our national history -second only to the Pearl Harbor and the 9/11 disasters - is over”.
@@barkingdoggai -- Well, Maddow has a strong sense of history; she'll know that Trump isn't anything like the worst nightmare either here or abroad. But you're right, she'll be relieved to make that announcement -- especially if it comes after the inauguration of an entirely new administration.
If McConnell has stated on tv that he has no intention of being an impartial juror shouldn't he recuse himself?
He should be forcibly recused.
If that was true there would be an easy super majority.🤔
Aye
great observation
Me O oh it is true and it is on tape.
Time to arrest Mitch and Graham on charges of perjury!
Right!! They publicly lied to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court!! Lock them up!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

This is all so...
Shocking
Mitch McConnell should recuse himself from this Senate trial for that one statement where he openly denied that he won't be an impartial juror.
In the prosecution of any other US citizen, if even the slightest hint of bias is suspected, a juror is removed in the "jury selection" phase of the trial and any ethical judge would recuse themselves.
Smart and beautiful you are.
Should but won't
Derek D - McConnell already knows there is no recourse for the Dems and no repercussions for being a completely partisan obstructionist and protector of the crime family disguised as the GOP. Trump will be acquitted by the Republican majority, even if he actually shoots somebody on 5th Avenue. This is America in the age of the Orangutard. FUCKING VOTE, PEOPLE!!!
Sanders and Warren should recuse themselves from this also Because they will be doing the same thing that they are accusing trump of doing
Who are you going to trust, the guy who's been caught lying over 15,000 times,
or the guy who's got a pile of documentation that corroborates what he says?
Nevertheless, the media, especially the right wing media, has already started a campaign to dismiss Parnes' testimony. They are conveniently ignoring that he has evidence. Does that sound familiar?
Keith Watkins while true, those 13 lies a day usually don’t compromise National Security, put entire countries in US affairs, or mislead the people into thinking he is doing what’s best for the country.
@Keith Watkins what is your source for the "average person lies 13 in your first introduction"?
This is our first time meeting-- is that your first lie?
The people who go to his rallies. They love the toilet talk. Dishwasher talk. If he tell the truth his crowd size might grow smaller.
Are you talking about Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi, or Schumer? What lies has Trump told? I 'd like you to name some of them so I will be informed too. AThagoras
It's good to see someone step up and say he lied. Flat out.
Little bit of hope....
An authority in Ukraine has already come out and said this perp lacks credibility and should not be believed....so why should I believe this perp who is facing jail time and trying to cut a deal is telling the truth of what transpired with Trump.
Tom, you can keep your own doctor....oh my. I guess Obama lied huh? Ah we like him so its okay
*"The fat is in the fire, the jig is up, the goose is cooked, and the cat is out of the bag."*

Any Senator who continues to defend this criminal is guilty of perjury.
trump will go down in History as: " The president who ended up knowing no one. "
camelshit Except Grecians, he knows everyone in Greece.
He should be forgotten. His family and name as well.
I think if he is asked do you know Donald Trump? Have you met with Donald Trump to discuss holding aid to Ukraine?
He will answer: I don't know him, lol
The man who have told almost as many lies as satan
That's fitting, because he's already the president who knows nothing 😆
I know this is a comedy show but we really shouldn't make light of the fact McConnell just perjured himself. Isn't there some penalty for doing so???
I don't know whether your making a joke or not....
I mean there's supposed to be.... but....
Mitch's punishment is that he gets no pizza and has to polish his shell for three hours.
Oh wait - that's for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. My bad.
If you find the right person and give them enough money you can get away with anything
NICOLE HJELTE ya and sadly enough the IQ in Kentucky doesn’t break double digits so they’ll keep voting for him!
Actually, McConnell made that statement on 12/17/2019. Given that, it would have been very interesting if each Senator was sworn in one at a time -- which would have more visibly cornered McConnell (amongst all others) for all to see.
To you and your entire staff: Stephen, I give you a standing ovation, sir. In a very scary and maddeningly frustrating time, you keep the public informed, and you even get them to laugh a bit (in the midst of cringing) as they learn what is TRULY going on with this corrupt, inept “occupant.” Thank you for every hour of your work, for your outstanding timing and delivery, and most of all for your tireless research and brilliant creativity. You and your team are a vital and precious gift to America. Your wit is therapeutic and much appreciated.
I appreciate Colbert, along with Seth Meyers, Trevor Noah, and SNL during these past few years. They all do a great service.
However, I read an article some time ago that claimed that comedians are making it difficult to really get rid of Trump. I can't remember who wrote the article. Basically the theory is that the comedians provide a release valve, when people need to be angry to go to the polls and vote against him. We'll see if enough people vote to get him out.
@@nicholascarroll1225 if Bernie gets the nomination, voting against Trump should and will be a non issue.
Bernie will not win against Trump because he has not been vetted, so his entire life history will become known and Americans will find him unacceptable.
@@nicholascarroll1225 Trump cheated on all of his wives, sued his workers, lost several lawsuits, paid hush money to a porn star he had sex with, filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy for six of his companies (three casinos), told uncountable lies, dodged military service (because of a "bone spur") and many other things.
So, what exactly might be revealed in Bernie Sanders past which could possibly be worse than Trump's history? What more do the Americans need to find someone "unacceptable"?
@@nicholascarroll1225 In what way?........What has the press expressly chosen not to talk about yet?!?!?
Talking about "Make My Day" Nancy should begin an impeachment inquiry against McConnell from his own statement that he is not impartial.
Nancy is not impartial either!
@@MrWjohn65037 You really don't see the difference here?
@@8NCLI8 You tell me what is the difference...Nancy said he was guilty before seeing the transcript of the call. She recently made a statement that it is all about the allegation and not the proof. So....she is not impartial either and at this point, both sides are dug in as to their beliefs and neither side can be viewed as impartial.
@@MrWjohn65037 Ok. The reason is that Pellosi isn't currently in a role where she's supposed to be impartial, just like you, as a private person, are perfectly entitled to hold on to your presumptions about Trump's guilt, or lack thereof.
Were you a juror though, you would be morally, and legally, obligated to suppress your prejudice. That's the difference.
@@8NCLI8 The problem is she is not in a private role and she has great influence. She is the Speaker of the House Majority. In that role, you can't publicly declare a person guilty without first examining ALL evidence. She is basically saying the evidence that will be provided by the republicans is irrelevant. She has all the rights to bring forth the articles of impeachment based on the evidence provided by the House, but should hold back final judgement (at least publicly) until after the trial. She has taken a hardened position which forces the other side (Republicans) to do the same. Since when is a person guilty before the trial commences no matter what evidence you think you have. Allow the other side to present its case. In her position as speaker, she has to be more responsible. I also agree that the Senate Majority Leader should not have publicly declared his bias towards Trump. I, as an independent, will withhold final judgement until after the trial and will make up my own mind based on the evidence presented by both sides.
The day the orange criminal is finally out of office will be a great day indeed.
2024 is a long way away.

@@StrictlyService905 ...not good at math, are you? What, no calculators in your trailer park?
Like VE Day.
About 40 Senators committed perjury today by swearing under oath to exercise due diligence during the impeachment trial.
Erik Gustafson That remains to be seen. They have a chance to act honorably. And if they don’t in the face of rock hard evidence, the Supreme Court might be able to intervene...
52 Republican senators but Romney might actually do the right thing.
The Senate is the only thing that could rival Trump himself for lies and corruption.
And the worst is, our only recourse and the only punishment these senate repubs will ever receive for blatant sycophancy and oath-breaking will be at the ballot box next year--and that only for some.
Technically: Their all swore to be an impartial juror. So, if they are not, does that mean it is perjury?
@17SPIKE17 let the republicans burn their own candle at both ends! love it
The founding fathers designed this to be a partisan process. No they can't be removed from voting. This is a kangaroo court. As the constitution outlined for good reason. Too make this not a regular course of business in the country. Lol, Democrats dropped the ball on this one because Republicans will wave at Democrats on election night if they have both houses now.
YES
Yes

True
That the reality of a cult..
@Anson Lobretto *republican. There I fixed it for you. No wonder Trump loves the uneducated. You can't even type out the right word.
Finally some truth without cover up from government. The GOA. No one has held this man accountable for his behavior and crimes.
Parnus knows. Now that he's been exposed, he wants as much spotlight as possible. Its harder to disappear someone when everyone is looking.
He is afraid of Barr.
The only way for Parnas to survive is to bring all the informations he’s keeping into the open so he’ll not have any salvage value anymore.
Parnas saw what happened to Epstein ...
but these people are patient.... 3 years from now while hes relaxing on a beach somewhere ...
Hope he's not another Jeffrey Epstein situation... Mysteriously killing himself in prison..
How Mitch McConnell keeps his seat shocks me everyday. Why other young people don’t vote pisses me off. Boomers vote in droves
I live in Louisville, Ky. The young people vote in major cities. There are so many small counties that are brainwashed to think he has helped them. The coal industry in Ky has dried up. I promise the city (most races and religions) want him gone. It's just the vast amount of good ol' boys that want him in. And Russia
It’s not just boomers it’s the oldest generation who are stuck in the 50s
I have the same thoughts about Nancy Polosi. She must have handlers telling her what to say.

"I don't know him." "I've never met him," "I don't know who he is..." If Trump were an apostle, he'd definitely be Peter.
Either Peter or Judas Iscariot. The latter would be a perfect Republican: a sell-out.
Philip Clayberg or another interpretation...Judas betrayed Jesus because Jesus ordered him to.
@@Chunkboi Correct as usual! Cheers!
Aha, but St Peter did, rather quickly, acknowledge the wrong path of his ways, had a “spiritual awakening,” in parlance, apologised, suffered, and changed for the better.
So, not really at all like the trump.
"One of you shall betray me three times ere the cock crows."
Peter looks uncomfortable.
"Another will lie his ass off more times than I can count within the space of two hours."
all the apostles look over at Trump.
At least Parnas is able to speak in complete sentences, doesn't shniff his way through the interview AND he makes sense in what he is saying.
Even doesn't have typical Eastern European accent! Cough Melania cough
Chrissie K Parnas was born in Ukraine, but emigrated as a young child.
Also, Melania is a moron, so there’s that.
🤣 " its the 1st time anyone accused Trump of knowing what was going on. "

Deny deny deny!
“I have no idea who he is!”
So it's just okay for McConnell to swear oath to the constitution and god as imparital after a literal video shows him saying he's not impartial? Whaaaa.
That video is from a month ago. If anyone questions his impartiality, he'll just lie and say that when he took the oath in Jan. he understood that he needed to be impartial, or some such bull.

@@JJ21210 - Doesn't and shouldn't matter. If you get called up for jury duty and a video emerges where right before going to jury duty you say that you won't be an impartial juror, you'll be removed from that jury.
Roberts should have excused him and Lindsey, based on their comments before the trial.
Because citizens don't hold their representatives accountable anymore. They think their online comments will somehow be enough.
Those in states where you have republican senators - this weekend is the time to flood their offices with "convict or lose your job" messages. We all know he's as guilty as sin. They'll dump him if they think they'll lose their own jobs.
Oh yes, he's *still withholding all of Puerto Rico's aid from the hurricane - illegally!*
Also make sure you vote against your Republican senators in November. Their time is over

A perfect phone call? If it gets him removed from office then i will call it perfect.
Moto_919 , it will never be perfect.
I have a feeling even McConnell knew about this. Hence why he's so determined to bury this ASAP.
I'm pretty sure all of his biggest defenders are either on the take, or are being blackmailed for their own scams.
Moscow Mitch
100%
Devine Nunes knew. His aide worked with Parnas & Nunes met Parnas a couple of times at that man's DC hotel. (Where the man himself had a private area where he often conducted/conducts business. Emoluments!! The corruption is everywhere!) This whole drama is like a 3rd grade play submitted fir a Tony - it's shameful and hard to watch.
"I understand. Everytime I look at Trump I say, 'Jesus.'"
remember when trump said this was all about talking with the russians about adopting russian babies........
good times.
good times.
Lev Parnas is more patriotic than the guy calling himself president.
Since Trump is a pseuso-authoritarian, he believes he's the state and the state is him
Nah, he was gonna profit by the millions by doing what he was doing. Don't mistake him doing the right thing when hes in a bad spot with him being a good or patriotic person.
Parnas should be up for Man of the Year!
He truly is. He was born in Russia but has been in the US since he was 3 years old and is a US citizen.
That's a low bar.
Don Jr is my son but I really don’t know him. He was raised by his mother.
But has that fake billionaires boys club look. The face everyone would love to slap just for sound effects lol.

I love how every time he makes a joke involving a drink he puts down the imaginary glass after
I agree. Pure Colbert
@@shirleyrombough8173 ~ He used to be a street mime. :-D (He says he wasn't very good, but I rather doubt that part.)
he does that with anything imaginary he's 'holding'...I appreciate the dedication 🤣
Stephen Colbert opening up his show talking about the Parnas interview has more views than the Parnas interview.
Get ready for: "Lev Parnas didn't kill himself" all over the internet.
Naw, that's why he went public, security. It's not like his lawyer told him to talk, that's the last thing they'd say to do. Plus all receipts have been turned over to authorities & now too many people know so there's no point in killing him.
this dude knows how the game is played, he's blasting more evidence into the ether then a nuclear sub vents air on a crashdive... if everyone knows everything there's no reason to wack him ....
@@jawadad802 "wack him" you taking a course in how to take like trump's thugs? ;)
That’s Hillary thoigh
Roxy go to sleep you're drunk.
So McConnell said he is not an impartial juror SO if they refuse to call witnesses and do anything to hold a fair and impartial trial will they have to face perjury charges? Are they above the law? What? we deserve an answer!
Call. Your. Senators! Tell them.
"I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!"
Whoo. Watch out, folks. Trump is so furious he _left the caps lock on!_ 😬
Should nt we review the chinless senator his job, after he outright said "he's not a impartial judge"? Or simply excuse him from the case?
I don't get how Mitch McConnell has so much power! He prevented Obama's nomination for the Supreme Court to go forward, he states openly that he intends to shoot down the impeachment, etc., etc., etc. Like Trump he seems to regard himself as above the law. (He also takes thousands in donations from the abusers of Tennessee Walking Horses in exchange for blocking all attempts to end the "big lick" torture through legislation. He belongs in the lowest circle of hell. He is evil incarnate.)
@@canreffy how do we get rid of this cancer?
Moscow Mitch will not go against his wife’s boss simple! He’s spineless and he’s no George Conway!!
"I am Donald J Trump, J stands for genius. Believe me, I'm like a smart person. I know words, I have the best words. I also know islands are surrounded by water, big water, ocean water. And get this, I even know hurricanes are tremendously big and tremendously wet. I know, mind blowing, right? That's why so many people call me a stable genius. And that's why they elected me to be the president of the United Shtates."
Don't forget he knows all about windmills
Kim Jong Fun Bigly water.
@@Geospasmic nobody knows more about windmills than the chosen one!!! His dishwasher legislation will change the world.
Kim Jong Fun Don't forget that he knows more about ISIS than his generals, more about global warming than scientists, more about drones, campaign finance, social media, courts, lawsuits, politics, the visa system, trade, renewable energy, taxes, debt, borders, construction and the economy, than anyone else on Earth. Hahahaha! He's such a lying sack of shit.
Coffefe
It’s was a perfect phone call
For impeachment. (:
Can people please stop making the backward smiley face? It looks exactly like a frowny face until I literally individually piece together the symbols. Smiley is :) and frowny is :(, please!
Of course, it was a perfect call, if it wasn't there would have been no connection or static or broken audio. As for the topics discussed, that's debatable as to how good(or bad) it was. It was bad.
kindlin I’ll consider your proposal (:
@@mr.midnight8090 Isn't that a bald guy walking in snow up to his ears (:
pbjent it’s whatever you like ;D
Time to get a good bodyguard, Lev! Seriously, he could be in danger right about now.
It's a beautiful thing. "I will show him a NEW picture." BAM!
Seriously though. Who the hell says a call was "perfect?"
Courage Karnga : A person whose base consists of a lot of people with no more than a 3rd grade vocabulary. He uses very simple words, repeated ad infinitum, not only because he himself is simple-minded, but also because his followers can easily parrot what he says, and feel smart.
That’s why you get nothing more than redirections & whattaboutism any time you point out how ludicrous he is. Ultimately, they don’t CARE that he lies and tries to make deals that are against the law & are purely for his own self-interests. They care that he’s “owning the libs” or whatever nonsense.
Someone who doesn't know the correct meaning of words?
A mobster who thought he used the right words to have plausible deniability. That's what Trump can't handle. He thought he'd done it right, just the way Roy Cohn taught him. And it's worked every time... until now.
When this whole thing is over, The Late Show should upload the compilation video of all the Don and the Giant Impeach animations.
I anxiously await another season of Our Cartoon President, they have so much material to work with.
I love you Steven Colbert...thank you and your writers so much for making me laugh so hard at the ridiculous state of things in our government and this president. It is much needed comic relief...
"I don't know this man."
Judas Iscariot would be proud.
Wait... wasn't that "Peter"? Judas was the one who *did* know the Savior and tipped off the Romans by kissing him on the Rachel Maddow Show. Right?
@@BenInSeattle yes but "Saint Peter would be proud" isnt something everyone gets nor does it make sense in terms of ultimate betrayal.
@@stephenbrady4352 True enough, and most people know who Judas is. Just between you and me, I tend to think of Trump not as Judas, the betrayer, but as "the lawless one" (Thessalonians 2:9) whose coming "will be in accordance with how Satan works."
Good on Parnas for going on MSNBC and CNN... now let's see him go on Fox, Chris Wallace might be pretty interesting
Trump will go ballistic. Hannity and the lot...their heads would explode.
So yes, I hope he goes on Fox. 😂
I'm sure he'd love to.
I think he could handle Fox- he was cool with maddow
Fox won't invite him even at gun point
@@ignatiuschua5268 stranger things have happened....naw, its fox, never mind.
"Faithful execution of the law does not permit the president to substitute his own policy priorities for those that Congress has enacted into law..." Remember this.
And visa versa
re: visa versa; priorities... Congress has enacted into law... does not permit the president to substitute his own... execution?!?
Nameless Progressive Clone You need to get your head out of your ass, watch BBC or another impartial network and educate yourself. Jesus. I am embarrassed for you.
Nameless Progressive Clone.
His oath of office is that he will faithfully implement the law. This ruling is that he has not done so by withholding the aid. Therefore, he has broken his oath in THE most fundamental way. This amounts to a “high crime” under the constitution.
You’re either wilfully disingenuous or woefully thick. Unless, of course, you’re both.
@ Emoluments clause, and it's illegal for a POTUS to blackmail foreign officials for his own personal gain.
This whole Administration and so many Republicans in both the House and the Senate are an embarrassment. This is plain ridiculous
Stephen...ur a national treasure!!
So they were criminal associates. They weren’t friends. That’s not hard to grasp.
Lev comes off as pretty truthful, but then anybody would when compared to Donald J McLiarface.
Lev realises that’s not worth doing time on the slammer for an asshole that disowns you in times of need. Trump’s using his peripheral people like toilet paper!!
@John michael and don't forget Christ is , by all definition, a socialist
That's what happens when you make a wannabe mob boss president.
@John michael This is false prophecy. How do I know? Jesus lived during the reigns of Caesars Augustus and Tiberius. How much time did Jesus Christ spend worrying and talking about them even though they were under great persecution? He did it once, to tell his followers not to worry about Caesar because he wasn't what we were supposed to worry about: "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's" (Matthew 22:21)
Furthermore, in Luke 10:27 It says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your strength and with all your mind" You can't do that if your're spending it all living in fear because of our political parties. If Jesus wasn't all about politics in his day (fear) under two Caesars, why would he all the sudden be into an American president nowadays? None of this stuff going on is eternal. Jesus said "The Kingdom of God is within you." (Luke 17:21) If you really believe Jesus and who he says he is, then you would not be so misled by this dog and pony show going on today.
In John 10:27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." Jesus lived in this world as an example to us to live by - put your mind on God fully, let go of the fear, and start following Jesus.
Mitch McConnell had his fingers crossed when he was sworn in.
His fingers are permanently crossed. He may be a better liar than trump, but otherwise he's no different.
Should arrest Mitch immediately when he swore the oath, or at least single him out to swore the oath independently.
Wait, he has fingers?
Mark Hettenbach Yes but the webbing make it difficult to distinguish one from the other.
Wow he idolized a man that literally is the insight to all his supporters let’s not forget what Cohen said. He said you will see and if you don’t stop him you all will be just like him.
"You're definitely gellin' now!" - Here, Colbert, have that goddamn thumbs up! :-)
Does McConnel's statement count as lying under oath?
Oh, it was a perfect phone call, alright. It got him impeached, didn't it?
What a Brilliant man Stephen C. Thank you. Your comedy eases the pain of all this political crap..
'Give me the Charlie Brown.' Omg! I'm dying!😂😂😂😂😂
"Lev turned and looked straight at Trump. Then Trump remembered the word Lev had spoken to him: 'Before the end of today, you will disown me a dozen times.'"
-Luke 22:61
It's funny, but that was the first thought that crossed my mind...
Parnas’s interview was perfect. Beautiful. I couldn’t have imagined it going better, it was just a really good talk. He’s a great guy.
Um, he's still criminal, willing to leverage people in need.
How the hell can a bloody funny comedy show be the most reliable source of accurate news. I don't know, but YOU, SIR. have pulled it off.
