As the Senate prepares to try Trump over his efforts to extract political help from Ukraine, a key player in that effort, indicted businessman Lev Parnas, has been sharing new documents with Congress.
Indicted Giuliani associate Lev Parnas shares thousands of new documents with Congress related to work he did for Trump in Ukraine.
WASHINGTON – As the Senate prepares to try President Donald Trump in an impeachment trial over his attempts to pressure Ukraine into helping his reelection campaign, Ukrainian American businessman Lev Parnas, a key player in that effort, is sharing new documents with the House Intelligence Committee.
On Monday, the federal judge presiding over Parnas' trial on campaign finance charges in New York agreed to a request from Bondy that Parnas be permitted to share the contents of additional devices with the House committee: an Apple iPhone, a Samsung phone and an Apple iPad. It was the second such request in recent weeks – the first was approved by the judge on Jan. 3.
Bondy declined to reveal to CNBC what was in the new Parnas documents, but if it is compelling enough, then it could potentially be incorporated into evidence presented at Trump's Senate trial. The Parnas documents are the latest in a series of new materials about the Trump administration's policy towards Ukraine that have come to light since mid-December, when the House voted to approve two articles of impeachment against Trump.
