Just as Donald Trump once looked to Ukraine in an attempt to dig up dirt on the Bidens and stay in power, he's now concocting a scheme to keep that power forever, according to a former administration insider.
Soviet-born Lev Parnas, who worked closely with Rudy Giuliani during Trump's first administration, was purportedly sent to Ukraine to help Trump and Giuliani make contacts there for the purposes of digging up negative info on Hunter Biden. Parnas was later convicted of campaign finance violations, and today reports on Trump from outside the administration.
Now, Parnas is sounding the alarm about the "propaganda" Trump has been spreading on social media, including an image in which the president appears to be threatening the city of Chicago with "war."
"Donald Trump has completely lost it. He’s not only planning to go to war with Venezuela—to manufacture a crisis that gives him cover to implement Project 2025 and stay in power forever—but he’s also preparing to go to war with America itself. Plans are on the table to unleash the National Guard on cities like Chicago and Portland," Parnas wrote. "And make no mistake, folks: none of this is about the safety or security of our country. It’s all part of Trump’s authoritarian playbook—an orchestrated campaign of chaos designed for one purpose only: to cement himself in power for good."
Elaborating on the part about Trump wanting to "stay in power forever," Parnas wrote, "I want to take this moment and talk to you from the heart. I’m not trying to scare you, but I need you to understand just how serious this is. What’s transpiring right now—the planned attacks on Venezuela, the deployment of National Guard troops into American cities, the Rose Garden being turned into a half-million-dollar pay-to-play club—it all points to one thing: Donald Trump is not preparing to leave power."
"He is preparing to stay in power forever," according to Parnas. "And if we don’t stand together now, if we don’t raise our voices now, there will come a day when we wake up and regret that we didn’t do everything we could while we still had the chance."
