that would be one of Sessions’s failings. Had he not recused himself, we might have routed out some of these fools.

Agree. Wonder how much of that is because he never thought he’d win? Just wasn’t totally prepared to govern the swamp. Improving but how was this person just now eliminated from consideration?

Kavalec, a long time State Department employee, worked under Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland. She was also a supporter of former President Obama and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, giving a small donation of $250 in 2012 to the Obama Victory Fund and another $250 to Clinton in 2016.

How the hell could this bit#h get a nomination for an ambassadorship from Trump? This sure is not draining the swamp. whoever recommended her to Trump should be fired forthwith.

Nobody wants to go to Albania, so career DOS people get the job. That has been the case since the US resumed diplomatic relations with Albania in 1991.

“..Why weren’t these people identified and rooted out TWO YEARS AGO?..”

I hate to say it, but all presidential appointments have their background investigations conducted by the FBI - domestically, and the CIA for foreign leads. And they are given something like 30 days to complete them. The FBI conducts these investigations out of their headquarters, not a field office. That means the background investigation was in the hands of one of Comey’s henchmen. Need I say more???

The problem is that his own party is the worst in undermining him. McCain and Ryan are tips of large icebergs. Their are hundreds of wise guys and made men for every capo.

Now, if Trump wants to offer Ireland, Switzerland or Austria, I'm in!

I wish Joe would have given a date when she said it. If it is true, I am sure it will eventually come out.

A few months later, Yuri Lutsenko, widely regarded as a hero in the West for spending two years in prison after fighting Russian aggression in his country, was named prosecutor general and invited to meet new U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch.
Lutsenko told me he was stunned when the ambassador “gave me a list of people whom we should not prosecute.” The list included a founder of the AntAC group and two members of Parliament ... ---US Embassy pressed Ukraine to drop probe of George Soros group during 2016 election, The Hill ^ | 03/26/19 06:00 PM EDT | JOHN SOLOMON, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR

biggest problem for trump is finding Qualified individuals for positions almost everyone who is Qualified has the stain of Washington dc. you just cant put people into theses positions with out experience. I am sure that trump did not even know this bureaucrat and the job was handed out to her from another bureaucrat who wants to setup problems within the government.
