Folks: it APPEARS the most important part of the State documents are the distribution lines.

They tie Lev Parnas into this effort, w/Rudy at center, including on efforts to get Yovanovitch fired (which obviously happened). They show, in part, that Rudy is NOT working for "free"

Who is Lev Parnas, the man at the center of Giuliani's campaign to find dirt on Biden?

Parnas, who calls Trump “one of the greatest presidents we have” and who has met the president at the White House and at Mar-a-Lago, has conceded that the way he wired the money to America First Action was “a mistake,” but told NPR that “it’s a whole misunderstanding that my attorneys are going to clear up.”

Global Energy Producers, however, has no listed office address or phone number, the Washington Post reported, and appears to have no ongoing business that could have generated enough revenue to support hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations to American politicians and groups.

Parnas himself has been sued multiple times over business and personal debts, the Miami Herald reported Tuesday, including by Dianne and Michael Pues, who say they loaned him $350,000 to finance a Hollywood film titled “Anatomy of an Assassin.” A federal judge in New York has ruled that Parnas must pay more than $500,000 to the Pues family trust. The couple are still seeking restitution.

“Mr. Parnas is a con man, he is a crook,” Dianne Pues told the Herald. “He conned us from day one.”
