Was she another holdover from the Jarret administration?

Chilling detail. Threatened. For that they want to remove a president from office. I’m surprised they didn’t have her in tears. That would have convinced other hysterics that Trump is mean.

She wasn’t fired. She was transferred to a plum assignment at Georgetown U.

“”a comment that quickly was displayed on a video screen in the hearing room.””

Why would that even have been allowed? It wouldn’t have been if Republicans had placed it there when they were the majority on a committee...

“”Rather than distract from the career diplomat’s testimony, Trump’s interference could provide more evidence against him in the probe. Democrat Adam Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said Trump’s attacks were intimidation, “part of a pattern to obstruct justice” and could be part of an article of impeachment.””

MORE EVIDENCE against him? That’s priceless. How long are you going to drag this out, shifty? Just keep going until you find more and more and more evidence, huh? Enjoy your holidays, you twerp!

“Some have argued, that a president has the ability to nominate or remove any ambassador he wants, that they serve at the pleasure of the president. And that is true,” Schiff, D-Calif., said. “The question before us is not whether Donald Trump could recall an American ambassador with a stellar reputation for fighting corruption in Ukraine, but why would he want to?”

If they serve at the pleasure of the president, he doesn’t have to give a reason.

And she can sue him and he still is not required to give a reason and she knows it!

“”They praise her over and over for her great work on corruption, but the Ukraine is totally totally totally corrupt””

You raised all good points.

I’ve been wondering just HOW and WHY State Department personnel get to be ambassadors. As long as I can remember, it’s always been someone a president favored from large campaign donations, a golfing buddy - whatever! I’m just surprised that she was a career State Department employee who was chosen to be an ambassador so many times. Maybe I’ve just forgotten how the game is played. Funny that we’re expected to believe that anyone with 30+ years in a government job means they were exemplary employees deserving of no criticism at all - deserving a job until they hang it up.

“”Funny, she didn’t say anything about feeling intimidated until Schiffty the Schiffthead planted that thought into her teeny tiny little brain.””

There was a lot of that going on today. Speier from CA did a lot of that with her questions. I particularly liked her giving her own opinion and then asking the witness to “expand on that.” HUH? It’s your question/opinion - expand on it yourself.

I couldn’t help but notice how uncomfortable the witness became when questioned about Manifort and his role in Ukraine. I’m not sure I followed the line of questions but her body language spoke volumes.

She was utterly discredited by the Republicans during their question time

I missed the afternoon session. So glad they did because Chris Wallace and all the rest of them were giddy with her morning testimony that Trump was mean to her.

Trump should have fired all of the Obama appointees.
Everybody's an expert. You're not as smart as you pretend to be.

Who would he replace them with? Rino Never-Trumpers?

Obama had people lined up waiting in the wings to carry out his Communist, anti-American, "transformation of America" before he was even elected...Trump was/is not so fortunate.

He couldn't even get people in his own party to support him. He still can't.
