Just a side comment -- and all you folks who 'predicted' 'heard' etc there would be tears....seems your sources or your feelings are misguided misinformed, just plain wrong.
I applaud her efforts, that doesn’t change my assessment. She can be a patriot and do good things and still have an inflated sense of her role at the same time.
Also as dems love to say about the but but Obama, Biden, Hillary, etc, what she did in Somalia is irrelevant to today’s proceedings.
You were attempting to paint her as some socialite ambassador, you couldn’t be more wrong. Firing an ambassador with her experience and backgrounds without a reason is reprehensible.
really?
She has provided the following information:
1. Donald Trump mistreated her.
2. Donald Trump provided weapons to Ukraine
3. Donald Trump provided more help to Ukraine than Obama did. (her words not mine)
3. She has no knowledge of any calls related to Trump and Ukraine
4. She knows of no instance of criminal activity by Donald Trump.
**edit***
5. She evidently confessed to lying to congress
If she owned the day, then she proved Trump is innocent. You ready to put this whole charade to bed?
Yep. And I thought Wednesday was really bad for the Dems. Today was far worse. Holy crap.
Where did I say that in my post? Nowhere. Your apples and oranges response to my answer to GreenBouy makes no sense.
well you did say :
" She was assigned a post in Somalia and she and her colleagues were shot at several times during her tour of duty there."
so there's that.
my point is this precious lady doesn't get a pass, doesn't have a better view, should not be believed above other, should not be treated with awe based upon the notion that she has been in bad places and/or "got shot at".
the precious lady should be taken at face value. her contribution to the investigation isn't buoyed by her service.
If her testimony was the only one that questioned the Trump's administrations actions with Guiilliani in the Ukraine -- meh we might not take so much notice
Thing is she isn't the only one that thought the actions taken were questionable, lacked integrity
So claim some kind of victory but the picture painted is -- There might not be a crime but there is definite inappropriate policy actions.
I agree with you using Rudy is inappropriate. But, and this clearly just an opinion, I don’t think after what he has seen the last 3 years, doesn’t trust any career civilian government employees in any of the federal agencies.
The record being created is the script for what the Articles of Impeachment will look like, if they are drawn. Witness Intimidation is a crime.
" Witness Intimidation is a crime."
What did she witness? She wasn't even there when the infamous phone call was made which IS, according to he dems, the reason for the impeachment hearings".
Trump is maybe.....after he made the real time bullying tweet -- even one of his puppets Liz Cheney chastised him for his tweet. As someone said -- someone needs to be sitting with the President to advise him. He's his own worst enemy.
Of course she isn't. All of the posters here got that from the fantasy dreamed up by Hannity.
More like carefully crafting. If there was any wrongdoing on President Trump's part, Schitt wouldn't have to spend so much time and energy carefully crafting anything.
The local liberal "news" papers aren't even wasting their ink reporting any of what is going on in this pathetic impeachment charade.
I don't know where you're looking, but the proceedings are all over all of the media around the world.
Trump bashes those he is afraid of. Yovanovich, a career American diplomat of exemplary esteem who has worked for our government satisfactorily for 33 years under both parties, specifically as an anti-corruption watchdog, mysteriously gets fired by Trump around the time of this phone call in which Trump asks the president of the Ukraine for this personal political favor in exchange for the military aid. Meanwhile, Trump is tweeting the praises of corrupt presidents while bashing her as ineffective. I'm sure it was a complete and utter coincidence.
"Trump bashes those he is afraid of." if they are so thin-skinned, they should NOT be Ambassadors.
