The only thing that these four “witnesses” have proven is, the utter uselessness and incompetence that has inhabited the US Dept of State for the better part of 3 or more decades. An agency that, at one time(perhaps), was full of folks that actually loved this country and wanted it to succeed, lead and help the world. Sad that it’s become one filled with radical, liberal, progressive, socialist snowflakes that love giving away US taxpayer money, with no accountability, just so they can travel the world on the taxpayer dime.
Having worked around these folks, it would make you sick to know what kind of perks they receive, funded by you and me. Things we’ve never had any say over nor would approve of, if given the chance to vote on it.
Either there was a “do not prosecute” list, or there wasn’t. The ex-ambassador flatly denied it yesterday.
Just the Dems playing the Sympathy card. I sure hope they run out of cards soon.
Did John Solomon specify whether this “list” was in writing or oral? Would be great for the prosecutor to produce it, though he probably would rather not be in the middle of this mess. The State Department would have a copy — why doesn’t Pompeo retrieve it?
Oral or in writing... good question. I’d bet on oral.
My wife watched most of the boring testimony, and I walked by the TV from time to time. I happened to be there when the specific question was asked about the list.
After being removed from Ukraine Yovanovich was given a cushy job at Georgetown U. On her U.S. government salary she now teaches one class to fourteen students. Talk about bilking the taxpayer!
All I know is that Zelensky said she was a Poroshenko loyalist....so I imagine Guiliani has a lot of info. He’s old school....everything in writing. Bolton is the same way.
Bet Guiliani or Bolton has the list....bet it’s classified.
Isn't it something that we can't even get to the bottom of even something this precise?
But her Ukraine gravy train was cut off.
I’d love to see a cartoonist publish a depiction of Shifty in front of a ‘wheel of fortune’ wheel that has the crimes of the day on each section as he prepares to select the ‘offence’ for each particular hearing. Collusion - Quid Pro Quo - Intimidation - Hurt My Feelings - Bribery, etc.
Isn't it something that we can't even get to the bottom of even something this precise?
It sure is. But it might have been a series of oral communications, not a single blast. Like, "Oh, don't prosecute Hunter, and this other guy." And then, a few weeks later, "Remember our conversation? We'd appreciate it if you didn't hassle this other fella, either."
If done in a slippery fashion, it rapidly becomes he said/she said, and far less precise.
She is your typical arrogant, self-important east coast urban twit who (to paraphrase the comedian George Wallace) “needs to have her a** kicked”. The pathetic thing is that she has sucked on the taxpayer teat for decades as she bumbled through the worthless bureaucracy in the festering anti-American state department. I suggest she do the only honorable thing left to her dishonorable self...and do it tonight. Epstein gave her a clue.
If there IS a “do not prosecute” list than it should be somewhere.
Who has it?

No! Yovanovich was fired!! I saw it with my own eyes on TV!
/sarcasm
That's my point. It seems everything these swamp folks do or say is cloaked in "cloak and dagger."
“Just the Dems playing the Sympathy card. I sure hope they run out of cards soon.”
The Dims have more cards to play, but the President holds the trump cards.
Marie Yovanovitch :”I had no agenda other than to pursue our stated foreign policy goals.”
Interagency consensus does not agree with President Trump
Dear Ambassador, you served in difficult places like Mogadishu, had a distinguished career and have been described as tough, smart and highly professional.
In those decades of service how many times did you cry in order to achieve your goals?
