She very quietly and diligently worked to get Lev Parnas and his lawyer to sit with her for a 2-hour interview, and they finally did. Lawyer said nothing, but Lev said everything.

Lev gave a pile of papers and cell phone records to Pelosi recently, and now he is talking to Rachel like there's no tomorrow. Names, dates, activities, connections, who talked with him, phone records and written material, what they tasked him with, what he overheard because Trump yells into his phone, exact details.

He's a thug and a fixer and it turns out that from Trump on down our government is run by thugs. I mean we knew that, but here is evidence. Really: connections laid out to Trump, Pence, Pompeo, and all the rest. Oh yes, Nunes and his aide. And Barr.

The Ukraine scheme? Trump was directing and others were up to their eyeballs in it.

You'll have to wait for the other stations and the newspapers to catch up, but Rachel Maddow got it first, and I think deserves a Pulitzer Prize.
