Did you think things would be chill since our last episode? Of course, you didn't because this is our lives now. We've got a great show for you today.

And if the things Parnas pushed sound familiar, that's because it's exactly what Donald Trump asks Zelensky for during a phone call in July. Now, Parnas has some potential credibility issues, as we'll talk about later. The other people in the meeting denied the details of Parnas's story, and Giuliani says he didn't give Parnas any order to give any threat.
That case had been dead in the water until Mulvaney's last second tagging on Friday. Multiple officials have testified that Mulvaney was key in holding the aid to Ukraine that is at the heart of the inquiry. And now for those who just have a thing for numbers, we have our reading from our own Nixometer.
