Trump Insists He Doesn’t Know Lev Parnas. This Video Proves He’s Lying

On Thursday afternoon, President Donald Trump swore up and down that he doesn’t know Lev Parnas, the indicted Rudy Giuliani associate who has emerged as a key figure in the impeachment investigation:

A short time later, Parnas’ attorney released a video which he said shows his client with Trump at the president’s Mar-a-Lago resort:

Here’s the “I don’t know him at all, don’t know what he’s about, don’t know where he comes from, know nothing about him” guy, w Lev Parnas & Roman Nasirov, former head of Ukrainian Fiscal Service, at Mar-a-Lago 12/16. @POTUS .@realDonaldTrump @Acosta #LevRemembers #LetLevSpeak pic.twitter.com/5B5QY2DJEg

New Trump-Pence Regulations Undermine LGBTQ Rights

New Trump-Pence Regulations Undermine LGBTQ Rights

HRC responded to the Trump-Pence White House announcing the publication of eight proposed rules revising the regulations that guide the participation of faith-based organizations as service providers of federally funded programs.

“Today’s new regulations proposed by the Trump-Pence White House roll back existing protections for LGBTQ and other people seeking government services and benefits,” said HRC President Alphonso David. “The right to believe and to exercise one’s faith is a core American value. The right to discriminate with taxpayer dollars is not. These regulations would dismantle meaningful protections for beneficiaries of these federally funded programs and strip away basic notice requirements designed to ensure that beneficiaries know their rights to be free from discrimination and their right to an alternative, non-religious provider. Taxpayer funds should not be used to allow discrimination.”

Today’s announcement is the latest effort in a three-year campaign by the Trump-Pence administration to sanction discrimination against LGBTQ people under the guise of religion. In 2017, Donald Trump issued an Executive Order directing Jeff Sessions to look across the federal government and assess ways in which the administration could license discrimination in federal programs. In early 2018, the Department of Health and Human Services announced the creation of a so-called “Conscience” Division and accompanying regulation. This rule empowers health care providers–doctors, nurses, and even non-medical support staff like receptionists–to deny even potentially life-saving care to LGBTQ people, women and other vulnerable communities on the basis of the worker’s personal beliefs, as well as a regulation to permit HHS to continue supporting federally-funded programs that discriminate against those groups.

Pause

Pause

Pause

No lyrics today. Instead, while I was searching for songs that fit the theme of pausing, downtime, reprieve and so on, I found this piece by Jodene Flow. It’s about fifteen minutes long and pleasantly chill with a bit of a dark edge to it. It reminds me a bit of MYST.

Jodene Flow – Downtime Inspiration

Full-room scenes like this one aren’t something I explore very often, but I really do like taking the time to set up in-depth decorations and spaces that can tell a bit of a story. I’m going to be giving it more of a try going forward, experimenting with depth of field and view angles and so on. The interesting shape of this room and the fact it’s got materials enabled made it an excellent space to play around in.

I used all sorts of stuff in this shot, obviously. Pertinent credits are below. If I missed something that you’re curious about, feel free to ask in a comment.

SLAM // kink & stuff – attic skybox

SLAM’s attic is a full skybox in rustic-modern attic styling with plaster and brick walls, exposed rafters, and configurable lighting. Materials enabled, two rooms. This scene is set in the smaller side-room to the much larger main area. Find it at The Man Cave Event for January, and afterwards in SLAM’s Marketplace as well as inworld. Check out more angles of the attic and the full details here.

SLAM // kink & stuff – wardrobe cage (Tinted blue via normal inworld editing, just for fun. That’s the benefit of brands that allow modify rights on their items! See the ad here.)

SLAM // kink & stuff – stool with plugs (Wood stool version – see the ad here.)

SLAM // kink & stuff – spank toys (Bamboo cane and wooden paddle included for scene flavor, with the stool. Official ad here.)

SLAM // kink & stuff – chain lamp (Strategically placed atop the blue cage for absolutely NO reason whatsoever. It absolutely doesn’t make the cage look like a kinky TARDIS. Nope. Not at all. You’re crazy.) Official ad shot can be found here.

SLAM // kink & stuff – cabinets (Included as further scene enhancement. See them in more detail and learn more here.)

Short Leash – Sadistic Pleasures YES SIR Paddle in Primary Blue/Black

UPDATE! Some may remember I showed off this paddle in early December 2019. That was a pre-release version, and now the paddle is officially released! Available first at the January 2020 round of Afterglow, and thereafter in the Short Leash main store. (It’s not the main feature of this particular photo, so if you want to get a closer look, pop back over to this shot from December.)

All Short Leash and SLAM creations are original mesh and materials enabled, and this is exactly why I adore both brands for photgraphy purposes.

Other decor of interest: RSD’s BDSM Bed, N4RS’ Fenix Room Divider, Revival’s Trouble Lamp, and Apple Fall’s Tatty Leather Chair.

Bodies featured are Legacy Masculine and Belleza Jake. Skin by Clef de Peau. Head by Catwa.
