Lev Parnas is much more credible than any of the high level Republicans involved in this scandal.

Although it doesn't take much to be more credible than Trump and Giuliani.

collaborated in House testimony, some of it is filling in blanks. Go back and review some of Sondland and Fiona Hill's testimony.

implicated in this scandal.

Not entirely credible, but more credible than the Republican liars we have in charge of this country.

in The New Yorker magazine about Lutsenko and Guiliani. It corroborates a lot of what Parnas said about how things work in Ukraine.
