Obama’s Ukraine ambassador lied under oath in impeachment inquiry, according to new email evidence

According to new email evidence, it appears as though Obama’s Ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, perjured herself under oath during her closed-door testimony in House Democrats’ secret impeachment inquiry.

Marie Yovanovitch – appointed U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine by former President Barack Obama – allegedly made false statements under oath during her October 11 closed-door testimony in House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson exclusively broke the story saying: “Before the contents of the whistleblower complaint were known publicly, a Democratic congressional staffer contacted the former American ambassador to Ukraine to discuss what the staffer described as ‘quite delicate and time-sensitive questions,’”

“This show has obtained exclusively an email for that Democratic staffer for the House Foreign Affairs Committee sent by private email to the former American ambassador Marie Yovanovitch,” Carlson continued. “Yovanovitch, you know, is a key player in the Democrats’ impeachment probe and was recalled from her post in Ukraine by President Trump in May 2019 following allegations of serious partisanship and political bias.”

The email Tucker Carlson obtained says:

I’m writing to see if you would have time to meet up for a chat — in particular, I’m hoping to discuss some Ukraine-related oversight questions we are exploring. I’d appreciate the change to ground-truth a few pieces of information with you, some of which are quite delicate/time-sensitive and, thus, we want to make sure we get them right.

“That email was sent on August 14, that was two days after the whistleblower complaint was filed and a month before that complaint became public,” Carlson stated. “The whistleblower, however, went to Adam Schiff’s team before filing the complaint.”

Actually, I believe it is a criminal offense to lie to Congress while under oath. Even though Schiff is acting as the Grand Inquisitor, he is still Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee (yeah, I know, the jokes keep writing themselves.) and she was called in front of that Committee.

Schiff is stuck between a rock and a hard place. He can’t very well condone outright perjury in front of his Committee and hope to stay relevant. He also can’t impeach his star witness. What’s a Schiff to do?

Schiff went in front of the media and proclaimed her to be the final nail in the President’s coffin. Now he has to face the fact that ANOTHER witness had contact with his staffers and then lied about it under oath.

Can’t wait for the public hearings now that Jordan is on the Committee. How’s Schiff going to direct the questioning in front of a live TV audience. His best hope is the alphabet networks don’t run gavel-to-gavel coverage.

This could backfire on the Dems big time.

Democratic politicians don’t lie unless their lips are moving. She was just babbling spin. That isn’t a crime unless done by a Republican.

(/sarcasm)

She is a political hack and Big Zero operative. What does one expect.

Sounds like time for Judicial Watch to make some FOIA requests for all emails from this “private email address being used for official purposes.”

********* Since the “impeachment inquiry” has no legal standing there is nothing that can be legally charges as “perjury”. This “trail” basically is pr stunt where the Democrats can simply make up any rules they want. ************

My thoughts exactly. Sort of like “Calvin Ball”, except I guess they both got to make the rules as they went, and had fun doing it.

Who gave the Dem staffer the ambassador’s private email address?

If the staffer had it then likely other Dems were emailing the ambassador using the private email address.

Lying under oath - when done by a democrat is ‘no big deal’ because the deep state is a criminal organization run by the loser offspring of former ‘elites’ and the DC press is the same.. corrupt to the bone.

Hi.

“we want to make sure we get them right.”

That is called a conspiracy, and subborning perjury.
