I think Parnas takes a lot of photos with important people. He might think Trump is king of the deal makers and takes pictures whenever Trump is around. Just because he takes pictures with Trump, does not mean he knows him, it means he takes pictures of him. This dude has way too many pictures. He is either setting Trump up or in on this with the Dem's. So if you see pictures of Parnas and Trump is in the picture, then this sets up Parnas as he must be telling the truth. So people will believe anything coming out of his mouth.

Show me some texts, phone calls and emails that they personally contacted one another and I will tell you they knew each other. Then the second half is what is coming out of Parnas's mouth. Is it true? He will need to proove that to me too.
Parnas was Rudy's main contact in Ukraine. You honestly think Trump didn't know who Rudy was getting all his information from? A guy who previously sold Trump Organization condos. And Trump never heard of him. Seriously?

The House has the “ Power to Impeach” , but that does not imply Absolute Power unless individual circumstances are addressed though due process.

Individuals are free to testify if they want to. There hasn’t been any obstruction, none at all, for the reasons mentioned above. That’s one of the reasons the Impeachment will fail.
The Adam,Nadler and Nancy Show didn’t want to wait for the Court to rule on their requests . That’s on them, not Trump. Then Nancy held up the articles . What happened to the “ threat to national security ‘ ? From what Americans were told, it was imperative that he be removed from Office.
My guess is those fancy pens were on back order.
Where is the “right” to have the entire executive branch ignore Congressional subpoenas enshrined?

Trump was/is a major personality and met and took pictures with many thousands (if not tens of thousands) of people each year. That does not mean that he should remember every encounter (that would be insane) or that he "knows" everyone he has met or taken a picture with.
AGAIN...worth repeating -- until you get it...yes one or two pictures alone -- not a good indicator of connection with Trump.

BUT.....the photos aren't the main source of the evidence to tie Parnas with Trump.

There are many more document, Parnas relaying incidents, etc....that add to the story.

It isn't just he photos.



You miss the whole point.....

Mr. Parnas, Thank you! Donald Trump said he "didn't know Stormy Daniels" also!

If you ever wondered why people become republicans, who did not inherit their politics from their parents, the lure of power and privilege is the answer. It is the modern-day, American equivalent of the English aristocracy.

So Americans are allowed to just ignore Congressional subpoenas? This is groundbreaking stuff. Tell us more.

Oh, you are evidently not a constitutional scholar: The separation of powers through the three branches of government: executive, legislative, and judicial. The president often exercises “executive privilege” when Congress subpoenas. Perhaps you were laying unconscious during Obama’s many uses of this privilege.

You seem to be grouping together Stalin and royalty, most logically Czar Nicholas II of Russia and his family.

Could you expand upon this most interesting view of history and politics? Thanks.
