Donald Trump has some big plans for the U.S. and its relationship with Russia, and they are coming within a month, according to a former insider to the first administration.

Former Trump associate Lev Parnas, who says he used to be "deep inside the Trump machine" and now reports from the outside, published an article on Monday morning suggesting the president is in the midst of the "biggest cover-up in American history."

"Folks, if you thought last week was crazy, let me tell you — that was just theatrics. What we are watching play out now, and what my sources are telling me will happen this week, is the execution of real plans — while the theatrics continue as cover," according to Parnas, who has referred to himself as a former "trusted operative" of Trump.

Regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Parnas said that his "sources are telling me that Russia is preparing a major assault this week, while Trump is considering having Putin as his guest at the FIFA games here in the United States."

"At the same time, Putin — through Steve Witkoff — is telling Trump that he should have the rest of the Donbas in Ukraine 'shortly,' promising him the spoils of war as if it’s a real estate transaction," Parnas added, before teasing additional news.

"I’m also hearing that within the next 30 days, some sort of U.S.–Russia relationship shift is being teed up — involving sanctions and business ties. The exact terms aren’t yet clear, but what’s being whispered is that the plan is already in motion," he said.

Parnas concluded with a warning for himself.

"And let me remind you — I’m not a journalist. I’m not a pundit. I was inside Trump’s inner circle. I worked with Rudy Giuliani. I worked for Donald Trump," the ex-insider added. "I sat with congressmen, senators, oligarchs, and world leaders. I know how they think. I know how they move. And I risk it all by not staying silent."
