Lindsey Graham Says Lev Parnas Is 'Crooked As a Snake' After Evidence Disclosure: 'I Smell a Rat

Lindsey Graham has said new impeachment evidence presented by Lev Parnas this week was "no different than the old evidence," calling the indicted Rudy Giuliani associate "crooked as a snake."

The GOP senator for South Carolina told Fox News on Thursday night that he smelled "a rat" and accused Parnas of "dripping out" evidence to the House Intelligence Committee in the build-up to the Senate impeachment trial.

His comments came two days after House Democrats released a trove of documents provided by Parnas' attorney, including text messages and photographs.

A letter from President Donald Trump's personal attorney Giuliani requesting a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was also among the evidence, and claimed to be sent with the commander-in-chief's "knowledge and consent."

To show his gratitude Trump has a pair of fitted kneepads for you Lindsey.

Usually reserved for people who have switched teams and are snitches....

Lindsay knows that this guy can't be allowed to sing and is trying to discredit him in order to protect the criminal IMPotus....

Get him under oath.

If you can prove he'd lying, prosecute for perjury.

That assumes Lindsay Graham treats the impeachment trial as a civic duty.

Nobody ethical would work for Donald Trump. Go back 3 spaces and lose a turn.

Yes Parnas is dirty. Who was he doing dirt for Lindsey? Who did he get foreign money to during the election Lindsey? He's your boy. He's your Tekashi 69 and he's singing to get a lighter sentence.

If you don't want people doing you dirty, don't do dirt and don't associate with dirty people. GOP is bringing this on itself.

that either he or Giuliani gave about the Ukraine.

I know Graham's name was mentioned by Parnas in the second interview.
