House Democrats released new documents Friday evening showing extensive contact between an associate of President Trump’s personal attorney and an aide to the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee regarding the effort to obtain material from Ukrainian prosecutors that would be damaging to former vice president Joe Biden.
The text messages between Lev Parnas, who functioned as Rudolph W. Giuliani’s emissary to Ukrainian officials, and Derek Harvey, an aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, indicate Nunes’s office was aware of the operation at the heart of impeachment proceedings against the president — and sought to use the information Parnas was gathering.
While Nunes was presiding over the House impeachment inquiry, taking every opportunity to mock the very idea of a conspiracy to coerce Ukraine to dig up dirt on Trump's political opponent, he actually knew the allegations were true.
I hope Hell has a special place for treasonous liars like Devin Nunes.
[Last spring. The impeachment hearings were in November. I wonder if Nunes will say he "forgot" in the intervening six months.]The newly released texts show that Parnas was working last spring to set up calls for Harvey with the Ukrainian prosecutors who were feeding Giuliani information about Biden.
“Also do you want to interview the general prosecutor who got [ditched] by Biden ? Also the anti corruption prosecutor ? Let me know,” Parnas wrote on April 19.
“Does tomorrow work?” Harvey responded.
The messages also show that Harvey met with Parnas and Giuliani at the Trump hotel in Washington.
Harvey and a spokesman for Nunes did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The text messages corroborate Parnas’s previous claims that he arranged conversations with the Ukrainian prosecutors for the Nunes aide. And they deepen questions about how much Nunes knew about the pressure campaign — even as he served as one of Trump’s most vociferous defenders during the House impeachment hearings.
“I was in shock when I was watching the hearings and when I saw Devin Nunes sitting up there,” Parnas told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow this week. “I texted my attorney. I said, ‘I can’t believe this is happening.’ ”
[...]
Records that the House Democrats released in December first showed calls between Parnas and Nunes. At the time, Nunes said he couldn’t remember speaking with Parnas.
On Thursday, Nunes told Fox News that he had reviewed his records, which refreshed his memory of having one conversation.
The messages show that Parnas and Harvey exchanged numerous communications beginning in February and set up several in person meetings, including with key individuals around Giuliani that were most involved in the Biden effort.

At least get your facts straight. Nunes never presided over the House impeachment inquiry...unless you somehow think he and Schiffty look alike. (shudder)
Now all you have to do is find out if those text messages are, in fact, facts...and not lies.
Instead of Hell, I'd be happy with a warm cell in Federal prison.

As ranking member he is presiding, for the R party, oopps the Trump party

That's nonsense. There is only one person who presides in a committee hearing, and it's not the ranking member.
It's time for Pelosi to impeach his ass, too.

Nunes certainly shouldn’t be a member of the gang of 8. The only one of the four Republicans in that gang that can be trusted is Sen. Burr.
Weeeelllll Nutty Nunes kept denying ANY contact with Paras until documents you think might be lies, THEN Nunes 'remembers' a brief meaningless exchange (of course)
So who is lying is leaning toward the tRump fluffer….eace

He also accused Schiff of knowing the identity of the WB and coordinating with them, knowing full well everyday he sat in on those hearings making those accusations, that he was a co-conspirator in the whole plan involving the Ukraine scheme to smear Biden and Yavanovitch right along with Rudy THE WHOLE TIME.He presided over it as Ranking Member, deciding who on the Republican side could have questioning ability and time. He used his extensive "opening remarks" as Ranking Member (the same amount of time Adam Schiff had) to castigate witnesses he knew were telling the truth, along with deflecting, distracting, and outright LYING. I can't believe he could actually look Ambassador Yovanovich in the face, when it was actually Nunes himself and his staff who orchestrated the shattering of her life and reputation.
One thing about Parnas, he has "receipts" for his testimony, and corroboration up the wazoo. Nunes, meanwhile, will no doubt be discussing all this with the FBI, with his lawyer by his side.

Those documents MIGHT be lies. If they are, then Nunes might not be lying.
In any event, what makes you think Nunes had any contact with that criminal who's trying to save his ass?
That's like saying that Schiffty had contact with Ciaramella...which Schiffty continues to deny.
Or...like all progressives, liberals and Trump haters are you pretending not to know things?
