House impeachment manager Adam Schiff misconstrued text messages between two key players in a pressure campaign against Ukraine waged by President Trump's administration, according to a new report.
In a letter to fellow impeachment manager Rep. Jerry Nadler, Schiff said indicted businessman Lev Parnas “continued to try to arrange a meeting with President Zelensky” and provided text messages between Parnas and Rudy Giuliani, the driving force behind the campaign, as evidence of this effort.
Documents obtained by Politico Tuesday night show Schiff cited one text message in which Parnas told Giuliani he was “trying to get us mr Z.”
A Democratic official told the outlet that "Z" was commonly used as a shorthand by associates of the president to refer to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. However, a Republican aide said the interpretation was, at best, careless.
"But an unredacted version of the exchange shows that several days later, Parnas sent Giuliani a word document that appears to show notes from an interview with Mykola Zlochevsky, the founder of Burisma, followed by a text message to Giuliani that states: 'mr Z answers my brother.' That suggests Parnas was referring to Zlochevsky not Zelensky," Politico reported.
Burisma is the oil and gas company on which former Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter sat on despite a lack of experience. Trump has pointed to Hunter Biden's place on the board as an example of "how corrupt" the Bidens are.
Last week, Parnas claimed in a series of media interviews that though he did not speak with Trump directly about the pressure campaign, the president knew what he and Giuliani were doing.

Mis-spoke mis-led howver the weasels characterize it = Lied
Mislead: cause (someone) to have a wrong idea or impression about someone or something.
Nope.
Nads was in on it.
Democrats are lying to everyone, including each other, because their arguments are so strong.
They must think they are still in the House where nobody can call them on their lies.
“May have” is weasel-ease for “DID.”
The bigger Schitt lie yesterday involved his claim that DJT only worried about Ukraine corruption in an election year. However, testimony transcripts from Schitt’s own committee clearly show DJT voiced concerns in ‘17 and ‘18. Schitt hid them.
Nothing he says is to be trusted.
GET! A! CLUE!
Does this mean that nadler, the waddler, will be impeaching the pathetic chronic liar schiff?
Well, since what LIEberals do best is LIE, is anyone surprised?
Where did Parnass get his info about what President Trump knew? Miss Cleo?
so schiff has both slandered AND omitted perjury in this process- and he skates scott free-
Had a republican dun even just the slander and false fabrication of what the other side said- they would demand and scream and stomp their foot until that republican were removed from the process-
So now Schiff is lying to his own people.
To suggest the troll has integrity....
In court many people go to jail for that wonder if he will face charges?.
"Misconstrued" my a$$. Schiff intentionally lied. The proof of this is the fact that Schiff also redacted additional words in the message that proved through context that "Mr. Z" was NOT President Zelensky. This is simply another provable lie by Schiff.
Yep, all lies 24/7, 365.
The same way Schiff LIED to San Fran Nan about the SOLID EVIDENCE he had with the whistleblower!!! This guy is such a SCUM he has dragged them all into this!!!
