Susan Rice Declines Request to Testify to Senate on Russia
Mediaite ^ | 3 Apr 2017 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 05/03/2017 3:38:34 PM PDT by mandaladon

Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice has turned down a request to testify before the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on crime and terrorism.

CNN was first to report––and Fox News subsequently reported––that Rice’s lawyer sent a letter back to committee chair Lindsey Graham and Democratic ranking member Sheldon Whitehouse that said, in part, “Chairman Graham’s invitation was extended only after the hearing was noticed, less than two weeks before the hearing was scheduled to occur, and without consultation with Ambassador Rice, a professional courtesy that would customarily be extended to any witness.”

The letter also alleges that this was not truly meant in a bipartisan fashion. Per CNN:

Senator Whitehouse has informed us by letter that he did not agree to Chairman Graham’s invitation to Ambassador Rice, a significant departure from the bipartisan invitations extended to other witnesses. Under these circumstances, Ambassador Rice respectfully declines Senator Graham’s invitation to testify.

Utter contempt...typical of Rat Party insiders.

Then issue a freaking subpoena. Are civilians given the 'courtesy' of being able to pick and choose when they appear? Why do govt employees get special treatment that civilians don't?

Okay, lying African American bitch. Better. She does appear to lie. She does appear to be black which defined by Webster’s second definition as having dark skin, hair, and eyes. And Webster, again, defines bitch in their second definition as a lewd or immoral woman. She lies like a rug, i.e., no morals. I would say that his interpretation is correct even though it can be taken other ways. But that was your choice.

“Rice did the dirty work “

That’s why a FReeper has nicknamed her, “Dirty Rice”.

She knows that playing fast and loose with the truth like she did on tv will land you in hot water when you appear before Congress.

See? She’s not as dumb as she looks
