Representative Elise Stefanik brought to light interesting information today surrounding how the Obama administration was concerned about issues surrounding Vice-President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, and his connection to a corrupt Ukraine company Burisma. This revelation directly contradicted the Yovanovitch opening statement.
During questioning Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch admitted the Obama White House spent time briefing her on how to respond to congress if questions about Hunter Biden and Burisma were raised. This testimony highlights the concerns by the Obama administration about a clear issue with the Biden family and corrupt Ukraine interests.
.
This admission by former Ambassador Yovanovitch directly contradicted her testimony that was made only minutes before the admission. From her opening statement:
[Yovanovitch Opening Statement November 15th, Page #8]
This story was written by Franz Kafka many years ago in The Trial. Man accused of a crime – what crime? He is never told. He is told to go to this place and you will find out, got to that place and you will find out. Never finds out. One day he is picked up and never seen again. The communists have nothin on these dems. If they can do it to the president they can do it to you. Now they are accusing him of attempted crimes. Wat? The ‘witnesses’ (to nothing) say what Trump wanted to do, what he was thinking. Kafkaesque

I read that book a long time ago. I also read a Kafka novel that was called “The Castle”. I think your analogy is pretty good. We are now witnessing a disgrace that could only be imagined by a fiction writer like Franz Kafka. Trump must have as much resilience as Kafka’s hapless hero to survive in the massive DC sewer.
Our Government is bloated with useful idiots spouting the collectivist claptrap of the Global Communist Cabal. I would be highly entertained if this were actually fiction.

This is the worst thing the Democrats could possibly have brought upon themselves, and when Trump wins 2020 in a landslide and brings back a Republican majority to the House while gaining Senators, the Democrats will have Pelosi and Schiff to blame.

2008:
“[An] Ambassador serves his president and may be recalled anytime and for any reason,” newly appointed U.S. Ambassador to Armenia Marie L. Yovanovitch said in response to [an] ArmInfo question [as to whether] her personal stand on [the] Armenian Genocide will allow her further [to] work at the US Department of State if the new leadership of the White House recognizes Genocide.
“The decision to recall [an] Ambassador fully depends on the president,” the American diplomat said avoiding a direct answer to the question. To recall, the former Ambassador John Evans was recalled from Armenia in 2006 for his statements on recognition of [the] Armenian Genocide.

So who does CNN’s Chris Cuomo have on his show to discuss, in fair, balanced and reasonable analysis of the Yovanovitch testimony and to tell us the reasons that Trump removed her (because they know what goes on in the mind of PJDT having planted a subcutaneous mind-reading chip there under their unknown 5th FISA Warrant) — ANDREW McCABE and JAMES BAKER!!
These two gentlemen are quite possibly facing serious criminal charges for lying to the FISA Court, and orchestrating what has been characterized by one of the lawyers, who works with the LAWFARE group and is “representing” the CIA Agent whistleblower, as a “coup.”
Yup, within a week of the likely release of the DOJ IG’s report which may well destroy the last shred of these men’s credibility, CNN is giving them unlimited time to make their ludicrous case against Trump for the newly-conceived high crime and misdemeanor of “maladministration” in relieving a Senior Ambassador who, at the very least, did NOTHING to intercede and defend the United States from Election interference when three senior Ukrainian officials, in a serious breach of international protocol and law, took public stands against Candidate Trump. She did NOTHING about the letter from her deputy. CDA Kent, sent to the Depty Deneral Prosecutor of the Ukraine, demanding that he shut down investigations to look into allegations and rumors of abuse of US taxpayer funds by two NGOs in Ukraine, including one run and funded by George Soros, the billionaire relentless manipulator of weak country governments to capitalize on their weak and corrupt regulatory structures – lest they be “intimidated” out of misapplying funds in the future. (This letter exists and is in evidence). That these organizations may have been implicated in Resisting US policy using US taxpayer founds seemed not to matter. These were just the unequivocal justifications for her removal.
Add to this that she was a loyalist to Poroshenko and disliked and distrusted by the new President Zelensky, and her effectiveness going forward was undoubtedly going to be limited.
So, “Freddo” puts these two disgraced men on his show to attack Trump—imagine that!!

So far it seemingly appears that the Democrats are accomplishing their primary objective. That was to cover up their illegal spying prior to March of 2016, which probably started around 2012. And for those that think it was just Trump’s team they were spying on, broaden your horizons. And it wasn’t just Republicans being spied on. And it wasn’t just members of Congress either. It involved lawmakers, journalists, judges, and even IC personnel.
Their secondary objective is to make sure the waters are muddied up enough that by the time the boat stops rocking and the water clears up, that we’ll be exhausted and forget about our dreams of catching the big fish and settle for a few small ones. And maybe by the time the water clears up, any statute of limitations run out.
What they aren’t counting on though is that we have a president that is determined to make sure that this never happens again. We have an AG that very well may have the American People’s best interest at heart rather than the swamp’s best interest. We may have prosecutors that actually care about the rule of law.
What they really need to keep in mind though is this. If they don’t do everything in their power to save this country from being destroyed, at that point, knowing they have nothing left to lose, We The People will burn it to the ground and start from scratch all over again. Because after all, freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.

So now we know why Schiff kept trying to shut her down when she questioned Yovanovich! She was getting a little too close to Biden’s corruption and the rot of the Obama administration.

Yovanovich’s body language is such that she was either expecting the killer question from Stephanik or not concerned by it. Certainly there was no “oh snap” moment that she had been caught lying under oath.
Yovanovich’s opening statement is meant to deceive.The quote above “neither [Biden] nor the previous Administration ever raised the issue of Burisma or Hunter Biden with me” will likely be waved away with Yovanovich saying that she wasn’t extending the term “Administration” to mean the State Department, [I also note she uses a capital A for Administration but she uses a small “a” when referring to the Trump administration, Obama administration and Regan administration. It would be interesting to know if that grammar could imply a specific limitation to the word administration or not).
It doesn’t really matter because when Stephanik quotes Yovanovich’s prior testimony, regarding being coached for her appointment….. due to a strategically placed, “you know” in the middle of the sentence….the reference is SPECIFICALLY LIMITED to questions about Hunter Biden being placed on the board of Burisma. To assume that it refers to anything more than Hunter being placed on the board is to ASS.U.ME.
However, that said, it doesn’t matter because the American people were further informed about the corruption during the Obama administration (or should I say, “the Administration”?). To that end, Schiff is Trump’s best little helper.

So my point is that Yovanovich will say that she is not lying under oath because even though the State Department DID coach her on Hunter Biden and Burisma, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Biden nor anyone from the ADMINISTRATION more narrowly defined talked to her about it.
Note how Stephanik uses the term Obama State Department several times (as opposed to Obama administration) and the real tell is that they make clear the questions were ” not generally about Burisma and corruption it was specifically about Hunter Biden and Burisma”. Very narrowly defined to Biden on the Board and elimination of the word “corruption”.
The meaning of the word “is”.

She needs to be asked how many times she met George Soros or anyone in his organization or family. How many ngos we’re giving money to bribe the ukrainians in government. Was she aware of the Soros organizations including all ngos of their takeover of the state department and the Department of Justice, FBI, and the CIA. There are millions of questions that need to be asked and answered so the citizenry of this great country can get rid of the corrupt influences in our government.

After the Ukraine money tree ended, the Biden boy went on to China, again with Papa Joe and had 400K to invest with Chinese investors. What a golden child that boy is.
