Rudy Giuliani’s indicted associate Lev Parnas called out Rep. Devin Nunes on Twitter via his personal attorney over a claim the California Republican made on Fox News to host Martha MacCallum in which he said he couldn’t confirm a phone conversation he had with Parnas.
Nunes, who is the Intelligence Committee Ranking Member, appears to be involved in Donald Trump’s Ukraine scandal after the House Intelligence Committee obtained phone records from AT&T showing a flurry of phone calls between Nunes, Rudy Giuliani, indicted businessman Lev Parnas, and The Hill columnist John Solomon.
Nunes told McCallum that he has to “go through my phone records to see if he’s [Adam Schiff] even telling the truth.”
McCallum asked Nunes what he discussed with Parnas, and the Congressman said: “Well I don’t even know because I’ve never met Lev Parnas… and so it’s a great question because many people want to know, including myself.”

“You never had any phone conversation with him?” MacCallum asked.
Nunes said, “We have not been able to confirm that yet.”
McCallum asked if he didn’t think he would remember if he had a phone call with Parnas.
Nunes said: “You have to remember, we are the House Intelligence Committee, Oversight Committee. So we get calls from people every day. All walks of life. I get them from all over the world. From allies and people that aren’t our allies.”
Parnas’ lawyer Joseph Bondy took to Twitter to troll Nunes over his claim and let him know that “Lev remembers.”
Hey @DevinNunes—Lev remembers what you spoke about. You don’t remember? #LetLevSpeak https://t.co/UlKZnGCxqR

We’re pretty sure that Parnas isn’t going to go down alone.
Lev Parnas’ attorney, Joseph Bondy, added: “Devin Nunes was definitely part of an attempt to gather information about the Bidens. He was definitely involved in Ukraine. He definitely had involvement in the GOP shadow diplomacy efforts in Ukraine, contrary to his claims.”

Lev Parnas had “no idea” that House Intel Committee had phone records of his calls w/ Rudy Giuliani and Devin Nunes. But Parnas’ lawyer said it is “particularly gratifying” that physical evidence of Nunes’ connection has been revealed through phone records after Nunes’ denials.

Nunes is one of Donald Trump’s biggest defenders and it’s rather telling that he can’t seem to remember which crime-y individuals he has spoken with. Liddle Devin filed a defamation lawsuit against CNN this week in federal court seeking $435,350,000 in damages. But keep in mind that the embattled Republican is also suing a fake cow.
