At House impeachment inquiry hearing, key witness Lev Parnas blasts Republicans for pushing 'falsehoods' - UPI.com
upi.com/Top_News/US/2024/03/20/Joe-Biden-impeachment-inquiry-hearing/2211710974684/
Quick Glance: Parnas Accuses GOP Representative During Hearing of Working on Behalf of Russia
- Lev Parnas, a former aide to Rudy Giuliani who was convicted, named members of Congress on Wednesday whom he claimed were acting on behalf of Russia by attempting to uncover 'dirt' on President Biden during his 2020 campaign.
- During a GOP-led House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing titled 'Influence Peddling: Examining Joe Biden’s Abuse of Public Office,' Parnas identified Sen. Ron Johnson (Republican from Wisconsin) and Rep. Pete Sessions (Republican from Texas) as collaborators in their efforts during his testimony.
- The accusation arose in response to ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin (Democrat from Maryland), inquiring how Parnas and Giuliani managed to promote and amplify 'these false allegations, peddled by corrupt officials and Russian agents, here in the United States, in our political system.'
- Parnas, selected as a witness by the Democrats, was indicted on fraud and campaign finance crimes, receiving a 20-month prison sentence in 2022. Since his release last September, Parnas has opposed Republican attempts to disseminate the narrative that President Biden's actions in Ukraine were to benefit his son, Hunter Biden.

Quick Glance: Lawsuit Against Fleet Farm for Violating Gun Control Act in Minnesota
- Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison has updated the lawsuit against Fleet Farm by alleging that the retailer breached the state's gun control law through repeated sales of firearms to individuals acting as "straw purchasers" who then supplied these weapons to prohibited felons.
- Recently, U.S. Magistrate Judge John Docherty permitted the state to amend its initial 2022 lawsuit to include the new accusation following a clarification by Minnesota's Supreme Court regarding Ellison's investigative and enforcement authority.
- Minnesota is currently pursuing civil penalties for each infringement of the gun control act and the state's law against public nuisance.
- Fleet Farm's legal representatives have contested the modifications, contending that Ellison lacks the authority to civilly enforce a criminal penalty that does not pertain to consumer protection.
