Parnas said after the Biden investigation turned up nothing substantial at all, Giuliani and journalist John Solomon - who was responsible for pushing many Ukraine conspiracy theories - started "trying to push narratives that were - we had no, they were not validated."

Parnas said Giuliani then began working with Russian agents and Russian assets to spread anti-Biden propaganda and disinformation "around May, June of 2019."

He also testified that Giuliani was "absolutely" aware that those Russian sources were working on behalf of Russian leader Vladimir Putin. He also said Giuliani had no problem with spreading lies "as long as it fit the narrative."

Parnas also named others. "There was also other people that were doing the bidding for the Russians. People in congress, like Sen. Ron Johnson, like congressman Pete Sessions, who sits here right now, that was with me from the very beginning of this journey into finding up digging dirt on Joe Biden," he said.

In fact, Fox News cut away from the hearing during [Parnas'] testimony ...
Naturally. If there are any laws broken here, the DOJ needs to prosecute the Congressmembers involved and hold FOX News organs responsible for slander/liable at minimum.

Russia Ron Johnson and Pete Sessions are Russian assets? This was not news just conformation of what we already knew. Now that Wisconsin is trending blue, I wonder if they can recall that embarrassment Russia Ron.

His testimony was a Democrat hoax, directed by Stanley Kubrick. It didn't happen.

Fox news, the network payout out nearly a billion dollars for intentionally lying to their viewers, cut off the broadcast to keep their viewers from hearing the truth from Parnas.
