Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch failed to hang a photo of President Donald Trump at the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv for more than a year after Trump’s inauguration and said “bad things” about him, the president told Fox News in an interview on Nov. 22.
The White House recalled Yovanovitch from her post in Kyiv on April 24, 2019, after months of allegations in the media claiming that she did not like Trump and was undermining him. Trump’s anecdote about the portrait, if confirmed, would become the first piece of evidence to substantiate the allegations.
“This ambassador that everyone says is so wonderful she wouldn’t hang my picture in the embassy ok? She’s in charge of the embassy. She wouldn’t hang it. It took like a year and a half or two years for her to get the picture up,” Trump said. “She said bad things about me. She wouldn’t defend me.”

The photo tidbit is an interesting detail about her state of mind. She claims to have been for the country and the diplomatic service above all, but didn’t even have the respect to put her President’s photo in the Ambassador’s office.
No objective. Partisan!
MSM will dismiss this being petty but it is anything but. It speaks volumes.
I know she is trash because all of the other State Dept. employees as well as the democrats were praising her endlessly.
They are al trash.
Yes, anything but petty. She was making a definite statement. For a diplomat, her deliberate omission was a profile in courage.
Her voice and speech patterns grated on my almost as bad as Blasey-Ford’s.
I bet Biden can help get her a job as a tourist guide at Chernobyl. It’s not that far from Kiev.
At the link, there is a picture of this humorless woman with rings on her right ring finger and a clean bandaid across her palm.
I found it somewhat symbolic of her whole cretinis nature.

She did such a bang up job that the dims plan to call her to witness against president Trump’s Supreme Court nominee.
This is ground truth insofar as the denizens of Foggy Bottom are concerned: It’s the Diplomatic Service above all for they, and they alone, know best.
I remember the VA clinic in Ft. Worth did not hang Trump’s picture for at least seven or eight months into his presidency. You could see the dust outlines of the oversized 3’ by 4’ portrait of Obama’s original picture on the wall, then finally in September 2017 Trump’s picture, in a normal 8.5” x 11” frame was posted within the unpainted-over dust outline. Mattis’ photo was also placed in the former Sec of Def. spot as well. VA employees did not take the election too well for the most part.
I don’t get the bandaid across the palm thing.
Zelensky’s comment in the July 25th phone call was even more telling....He said...She was for Poroshenko not me....
New to me:
Cretinism: Congenital iodine deficiency syndrome, also known as cretinism, is a condition of severely stunted physical and mental growth owing to untreated congenital deficiency of thyroid hormone, (congenital hypothyroidism) usually owing to maternal hypothyroidism.
In fact , why were all these Obama holdovers fired day one ?
Did Rence Prieus the Ryan plant cause all of this bad decision making ?
Dems fire everyone on day one .
I'd fire every single principal foreign service officer during that time. Every. Single. One.
Then I would contact SECDEF and identify every single military officer who worked there in a year, and have them resign their commissions.
She’s been “wounded” by this president.
The same as a fake neck brace in a bogus car accident law suit.
