From Russia with Lev

EVERY AMERICAN should watch this documentary BEFORE they vote in November! Some of the revelations surprised even me, and I pride myself on being well-informed. This documentary was extremely well done and provides indisputable evidence of blatant corruption on the part of Trump and Rudy! More important, it not only proves Trump is a danger to American democracy and to the World, it also proves he was NOT acting on behalf of this country, so his actions should NOT qualify for immunity! In fact, he, along with ALL those who enabled him and covered for him, belong in prison! Well done Rachel Maddow! This is Oscar worthy material!

Brava to Rachel Maddow once again! I am so incredibly grateful for all the documentaries, books, articles and newscasts that have helped us all make sense of how Trump rose to power with the help of Putin and numberous criminal activities by Trump and his associates. All this craziness is tragic, criminal and putting us all at risk! We must all fight hard to get Harris/Walz elected! This election is truly a fight for right and for our democracy! Those of us who see the truth of who Trump really is and the threat he is to our country and to our world must help those that sadly been sucked down the rabbit hole into the cult of Trump!

Directed by Billy Corben, this documentary project from MSNBC host Rachel Maddow provides a cogent, intentionally one-sided detailing of corruption on a massive scale, centered upon and incriminating Donald Trump and his associates, notably Rudy Giuliani. Obviously, MAGA cultists and collaborators including the folks at Fox News won't profess to believe any of it, but it becomes clear that good bad-guy Lev Parnas has the receipts and "in the room where it happened" credibility to tell an important story that is highly relevant now that Trump is competitive (if self-destructive) in the upcoming election attempting to regain the presidency.

Corben's approach overwhelms the viewer with facts, endless testimony from especially Lev and his wife, plus satirical jabs against Trump and his cronies that I found immersive: mainly persuasive but also at times over the top. Like Michael Moore, he is a truth seeker, truth teller and entertainer, but perhaps a more traditional docu format would carry more weight. Yet the finale of Lev meeting and coming to terms with one of his chicanery's victims, Hunter Biden, is powerful.

This great film is going to be one of the finest explanations of the Trump rein of corruption during his time in American politics. The amount of time it must have taken to gather all the information blows my mind! It is so well put together to show the story of what Trump and his weaponization of the DOJ did to destroy our trust in journalism. The Fox news propaganda that was spread in the name of protecting Trump is just so egregious it should be an un coalification event for their moniker of: "Fair & Balanced!! I think it's great that the truth be shown of their involvement in the decline of trust in our government and society! Facts matter, and Rachelle has always been a beacon of trust for me to navigate during this dreadful period of American history!

Gripping from beginning to end. Does Lev Parnes have a checkered past. Absolutely. That's what gave him the credentials to be recruited by Giuliani on behalf of Trump. Is Parnes speaking the truth about Trump's motives and what went down. Absolutely. Everything he describes lines up perfectly with the Trump playbook we've come to know very well over the past 8 years. His wife's sincerity and intelligence and his dedication to his family are very convincing. Taking into account January 6th, the actions described in this documentary and many many other devious actions and statements by Trump and his co-conspirators, it boggles the mind that he's still seemingly supported by 40% of our population.
