Democrat President Joe Biden’s U.S. Ambassador to Germany, Amy Gutmann, has returned to the United States just days after first reporting for duty during the Munich Security Conference, taking a commercial flight back to the States after Vice President Kamala Harris refused to let her fly home on Air Force Two.
Gutmann, who presented her credentials just days ago — Thursday of last week — to begin work as the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, attended meetings at the Munich Security Conference with world leaders and fellow top U.S. officials, including Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Instead of staying in Germany to work at this critical time in foreign policy in Europe, an embassy spokesman confirmed that Gutmann is now back stateside just days after first reporting for duty. Germany is one of the key geographic centerpieces of the unfolding Russia-Ukraine conflict, given Biden’s decision to allow Nordstream 2, the Russian natural gas pipeline into Germany, to proceed after his predecessor former President Donald Trump held up the pipeline during his administration. The Kremlin has been increasingly emboldened since Biden opened up the pipeline and now threats of a potential invasion in Ukraine perhaps represent the possibility of the biggest war in Europe since World War II.
“The White House lobbied the Senate to confirm Gutmann this month because they said she was urgently needed in Germany due to an impending war from Russia,” a former State Department official told Breitbart News.

It is unclear if taxpayers paid for Gutmann’s flight home to the United States after Harris and her team denied the ambassador a seat on Air Force Two—and if they did how much it cost.
As an SES/Ambassador lever person, the taxpayers paid for the Business Class ticket back to the USA.
It’s been ongoing.
Not sure she resigned. Just back in country working “issues”.
“Nato is dead.”
May the UN be next...
Pretty sure she came back for a State Dept protocol school.
I think this is pretty easy to explain. After sitting in on Camella’s junior high-level speech, the ambassador and all the Europeans decided she should immediately go back and get instructions from the real foreign policy designers at the Deep State Department. She also obviously didn’t want to be trapped on a plane for five hours with that ignorant, egocentric kneepadder, since Camella has SS protection.
Amy might be smarter than I thought.
Ambassador Gutmann has temporarily (she will go back to Germany) returned to the United States to undertake cross-government consultations (the CIA has to fill her in on more and show her how to work the crypto) on the situation and to complete necessary State Department in-processing (she didn't get her paperwork done before departing because she's not that bright and is having trouble with the spy training).
Wish I could explain it better, but if I needed to go to Chicago to check on a bank we had recently closed, if a seat was available on an American Airlines flight, I could fly that day.
I was a profit center for my section: when a commercial borrower requested a loan modification, my boss’s boss had me review the tax returns submitted by the borrowers (they knew I was a CPA). I provided him with several questions to ask the borrowers when I found “irregularities.”
The day after being grilled during the first meeting, they bumped their mod from $17 million to $28 million, the original loan was around $40 million. Given the commercial real estate market back in 2010, that was the fair market value for the asset.

That, or maybe to review her suicide vest pasty training.
The thought of Cackling Kamala being President scares the hell out of me.
Now this is getting interesting.
Obama and Michelle vs. Biden
Kamala versus Jill and Joe Biden
Hillary driving a wedge to get back into power herself.
Kamala versus this new ambassador combatant who will want revenge.
And AOC wing versus the staid Pelosi and Schumer power bloc.
Reminds me of the Joseph Campbell memory of Dr.D.T. Suzuki’s statement on how Christianity looked to him: “Nature against Man, Man against Nature; God against Man, Man against God; God against Nature, Nature against God; very funny religion!”
Putin and dummy....
“So then I sent President Harris overseas to straighten this all out. The history books will say of me ‘He kept us out of war.’”
Don’t worry. The same evil people will be making the decisions behind the scenes.
Nothing like a catfight between a United States Vice President and a US Ambassador during a potential war to make our country look like a petty sorority bar fight.
