Actually, that's a decent way to go about this. Turn this back into such a mainstream game and symbol (in that case 3 pointers in basketball) that it drowns out the white supremacist aspect completely.Banned forever

Trump went on a rant where he said he didn't speak with Parnas a total of 9 times.
Queue the 4-5 pictures that show him standing next to Trump, showing Trump his phone, talking to Trump...

You knew Vic Mackey?This has been going on for literal decades. I witnessed it multiple times firsthand out my apartment living room window when I lived in Koreatown (which was part of the super corrupt Rampart LAPD Division back in the days of the anti-gang CRASH Unit).https://www.latimes.com/california/stor ... -questionsFew issues have generated more controversy in California law enforcement circles than how police determine whether someone is a gang member.
Such a designation can carry harsh repercussions. Critics have long argued that police unfairly target African Americans and Latinos as gang members with the use of field interviews in which officers ask those they pull over whether they have a gang affiliation.
Proving the allegations of bias has sometimes been difficult.
But police leaders now have millions of recordings to review from more than 7,000 body cameras as a scandal widens over allegations that officers with the Los Angeles Police Department’s elite Metro unit falsely portrayed people as gang members.

No, but I did skate with a writer/producer on the show.

Can we stop assuming because a celebrity had their picture taken with someone that they knew each other?Video from Parnas’ attourney

I believe I read something that he even worked for Trump's dad.

The whole famous guy may not know him certainly applies, but again, I just don’t believe Trump isn’t involved in this because he’s been the center of attention his whole life.
The evidence, the testimony, all points to it being closer to knowing than not.

And also, we're not talking about one single photo at a gaggle event or something. There's a photo of Lev with Trump as far back as 2014, and Parnas was a guest at an invitation-only election night party. I haven't seen anything to back up the claim yet, but to eddy's point Parnas also says the reason he's a Trump supporter is because he worked for the Trump Organization selling condos in NYC back when Fred Trump was alive and running things. (The $1 million wire transfer Parnas received mid-2018 was from a real estate attorney who specializes in assisting foreign buyers of property here in the States.) He's got personalized thank you cards from Trump signed by both POTUS and FLOTUS. (Which by itself wouldn't be a big deal - my uncle has a postcard from JFK that's actually postmarked 11/23/63 - but is one more straw on the camel's back) This is a guy who had restraining order against him in Florida, but was still able to clear Secret Service screening and get into private White House events on iirc at least two different occasions and has no problem getting into Mar-a-Lago when Trump is in Palm Beach.

Virginia Heffernan is genuinely disturbed and I hope she gets help. Trump has broken her brain

Yea, if there's one thing that is annoying is that all of these people that get in front of TV saying "I don't know this, I didn't do that" all likely get burned by evidence that says otherwise. Couple that with the administration stonewalling everything in regards to the investigation/trial, and there's no need to take what anyone says at face value.
I'm sure something will break in a few days where this guy suddenly remembers Lev Parnas.

I don't think we have to accept everything that Parnas is saying, but it would be pretty ridiculous to dismiss it all out of hand.
The background on the ambassador stuff from last night was quite revealing.
Here's a story from October which is what this whole saga was supposed to reveal for Trump. But was a giant bust because it required the US press to all jump on some revelations from a bunch of former corrupt Ukrainian officials.

This is what was going on. Shokin wanted Trump to dismiss Yovanavitch, he was willing to come to the US and tell this stuff to US investigators in exchange for that. Parnas told Maddow that Shokin was using this statement as leverage and said he wouldn't do it if they didn't oust the ambassador.The fired prosecutor at the center of the Ukraine controversy said during a private interview with President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani earlier this year that he was told to back off an investigation involving a natural gas firm that was linked to Joe Biden’s son, according to details of that interview that were handed over to Congress by the State Department’s inspector general Wednesday.
