Trump's "Bad News" Ambassador To Testify (UPDATED)
Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovich is scheduled to give a deposition to Congressional investigators looking at the weapons-for-political dirt shakedown of Ukraine by sociopath and Kremlin asset Donald "Rump" Trump. Yovanovich was withdrawn as ambassador last spring after complaints from Trump consigliere and unhinged TV yakker Rudy "Ghouliani" Giuliani that she was uncooperative in the political hatchet work against the Bidens. In his infamouse shakedown call to Ukrainian President Zelensky, Trump referred to Yovanovich as "bad news." She may also have things to say about Ghouliani's thug "clients" who were arrested late Wednesday before boarding flights with one-way tickets to Vienna and charged with felony campaign finance violations. It's being reported that Ghouliani was planning to fly to Vienna the following day to meet with them and perhaps others in their shady enterprise.
We hope Yovanovich's deposition offers up more "bad news" not only for Ghouliani and his criminal crew, but for their crime boss.
UPDATE: Yovanovich confirms that Trump pressured the State Department to fire her, saying that she was removed based on "unfounded and false claims by people with clearly questionable motives." Here's her prepared statement.

Remember Wonder Woman's gold lariat of truth? Doncha wish we had that for all of the thugs who testify? For once, I'd like to see each witness get up and say exactly what they know about Trump and all of his cronies. I would love to hear unadulterated honesty about what has been going on with Trump and his mob over the past five years and more. Someone needs to tell the truth, and then see if the dam breaks for the rest to tell their truths.
ReplyDeleteBut we'll have to rely on the bits and pieces we get for now.
donnah -- After your comment, a text of her prepared statement was released and we posted a link to it. I imagine in her subsequent testimony she'll reveal more under questioning.
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't see her as one of Trump's thugs; she's one of the few good people who got caught in the middle and was insulted by Giuliani. I think she'll provide some clarity and timeline info. I would assume she won't need a golden lariat. I hope she isn't punished for her testimony.
