Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch has told Congress that attacks from corrupt interests have created a crisis at the State Dept.
(snip)
She (Yovanovitch) told lawmakers that she was the victim of “a campaign of disinformation” that used “unofficial back channels” leading to her removal from Ukraine. She says it “continues to amaze” her that Americans partnered with “Ukrainians who preferred to play by the old corrupt rules” in pushing for her removal.
Yovanovitch is also sounding alarm that senior State Department officials did not defend her from attacks from the president’s allies, including former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani. She is telling lawmakers about a “crisis in the State Department.”
She says: “The State Department is being hollowed out from within at a competitive and complex time on the world stage.” (all emphasis mine)

I see that one of the places she studied at was The Pushkin State Russian Language Institute. These Deep Staters and their love for Russia. What hypocrites!
From what I hear, Schiffty will hold more secret meetings later today in the dungeon. He’s got to find something - and fast.
The latest from the NeverTrumpers at Fox: Trump’s tweets intimidated the witness, which is an impeachable offense. Where to start:
1) she already testified in secret before the tweet.
2) she was not aware of it during this testimony until informed by Schiff.
3) she is not even a fact witness. Witness to what? She left before the phone call was made and did not hear it. She only heard it from another source who himself may not have heard if directly. Heresay and not falling under an exception.
4) even if she was a witness, witness to what? Has anyone yet enunciated clearly what the President has done?
So, according the Brett Baier and fake glasses Wallace Trump should be impeached for interfering/intimidating a witness who isn’t a witness to any crime.
Great, we are back at obstructing an investigation that should never have been launched in the first place.
Butt hurt political hack because she lost her job.
This is the biggest con job ever.
This chick is a real piece of work isn’t she..she knows NOTHING yet she is pissed that she was fired..guess what sweetheart, a lot of people are fired from jobs in their lives. I have, twice, no reason given, did I make a fuss, NO, I went and collected my unemployment and moved on..she has nothing worth while to say except cry on TV about how she got fired, guess what, the President can fire you at any time for any reason..he has ZERO obligation to keep anyone he doesnt want to..are you telling me that Obama had to keep Bush people in his cabinet, of course NOT..he had every right to fire anyone he wanted to as well. The President makes foreign policy, NOT anyone else. I didnt vote for Trump to keep Obama people in his cabinet. I voted for him to create his OWN agenda
I read the tweet, he tweeted out for EVERYONE to see that he had every right to fire her..how the heck is that intimidation, he didnt tweet out “You talk I kill you”
Draining the swamp. It’s what we hired President Trump to do.

+100
In fact, I would have fired her for her hairstyle.
Ukraine had an investigation going into Burisma and Hunter Biden before Trump became President.
Yovanovitch knows this because she was there helping to stifle the investigation. She allegedly had a list of people she told the Ukraine government not to investigate.
Trump mentioned, in his second UK phone call that Ukraine had an investigation IN PROCESS and he wondered how it was going.
The Dems are claiming that Trump forced Ukraine to START an investigation. This is simply not true.
IMPEACH!
YADA YADA YADA
Let’s impeach the Prez cuz Marie can’t make her car payment!
Fat cushy Gov job is apparently an entitlement...but not for us
Stopped listening at VICTIM. Cut off here oxygen.
Suck it up Buttercup.
I am pretty sure Melania would have made sure the President never put someone who would wear white after Labor day in such an important position.
It’s an official back channel and she’s not guaranteed the job, so she’s a nothing witness.
It’s just a pile on of negativity to present a circumstantial case against President Trump for the public’s consumption. This is all it is and it’s disgusting.
Watch CSPAN.......turn Fox off.......till the sun goes down.
The Fox daytime news operation was built by Smith and his operatives. Baier was a plant from the libs after Hume left. He was anti trump up to the election.
