John Bolton warned the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee shortly after his departure in September that former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch's ousting was 'improper,' it was revealed Wednesday.
'He and I spoke by telephone on September 23,' Democratic Representative Eliot Engel revealed in a statement Wednesday. 'On that call, Ambassador Bolton suggested to me unprompted that the committee look into the recall of Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch.'
'He strongly implied that something improper had occurred around her removal as our top diplomat in Kyiv,' Engel said.
The call, on September 23, came just a few days after Bolton was ousted from his post in the administration.

Sometimes, your eloquence reminds me of another era. An era when certain neighborhoods were much safer than they are today.
IIRC, Yovanovitch authorized spying on reporter John Solomon.
It’s not fake news. You know how I know? Bolton could stop all this in 10 minutes on Hannity if he wasn’t a traitor. He could step up and say, Trump did nothing wrong I ever saw. He didn’t strong arm anyone, and we simply parted ways over differing opinions.
But he lets all the lies hang out there. He’s a traitor and a snake.
Good points. Let’s wait and see if Bolton is snookering and drops the hammer on the Dims .
And Yovanovitch was monitoring John Solomon, Dan Bongino, Hannity, Ingraham and others.
That's one of the things Trump went to Washington to change. They are threatened and angry.
Then we’d discover what a Soro controlled witch she is and how she blocked visas to the US of people who had evidence of corruption connected to US officials.
Yovanowitch didn’t want that.
As it stands now, Boltons book is DOA. Any discussion he has relating to his book will be considered a threat to National Security.
Maybe Bolton knows that Hillary plans to run again and is hoping for a position in her administration.
I know, its great huh? Im so upset with him and just kind of stunned at his actions. What a colossal jerk!
There may have been “improper” activities e.g. she may have been followed around or spied upon. Of course, she had several of her own spying operations going on as well.
In any case there is nothing improper about recalling an Ambassador. This is purely the POTUS’ right. No reason is needed - but he was given a reason by Ukraine president Zelensky - that she was actively subverting and undermining his administration!
Is Bolton REALLY a DEMOCRAT MOLE SNAKE??? Or just ANOTHER ANTI-TRUMPER??
The WAR MONGER is LOVING THIS......he;s CREATING ANOTHER WAR!!
Come back from QATAR, BOLTON!
Does that mustashiod moron know Yankovich was spreading her hate for President Trump all over the embassy.
Does he know she committed a cardinal sin of an Ambassador;
taking part in demonstrations in Ukraine which Ambassadors are forbidden from doing.
Plus other stuff that Giuliani uncovered that was bad.
She was a disaster waiting to happen
He seems to be a very bitter little man. Long fall off his high horse. I look for FOX news to rehire in PDQ.
“”He strongly implied that something improper had occurred around her removal””
Who did he think had the power to fire an ambassador? And who did he think had to give the approval to the president to do so? The Postmaster General - who I believe is last in line of succession to the presidency!
The President can fire any Ambassador for any reason - or for no reason. End of discussion.
Im not going to say it Lord,help me
You know, Bolton is a smart guy. I’m pretty sure he knows that ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the President.
I highly, highly DOUBT he would want somebody to look into Trump getting rid of her.
Actually, I’d be surprised if Bolton didn’t ADVISE Trump to get rid of her.
