Yovanovitch testified today in a Congressional hearing in a bogus attempt to impeach President Trump. She didn't listen in on any phone calls. She did not know about any military aid being paused (while the US state department made sure the newly elected Zelensky was someone we wanted to give aid to and that the amount of money was appropriate), and she's pissed that he fired her. Dems attack Trump on a daily...no hourly...basis. The only way Trump can talk to the people who elected him is via social media, since the main stream media are so biased against him. So Trump tweeted that Yovanovitch did a bad job and that the new Ukraine president spoke unfavorably about her. And Schiff blew it big time by reading Trump's tweet defending himself. Trump was only using his First Amendment right to freedom of speech.. Oh, I forgot, Trump is not subject to the Freedom of Speech laws because...well...he is Trump, right Democrats?....so you call it Witness intimidation. How many other tweets that were negative to today's circus hearing are they going to call witness intimidation??
Trump talks to his base and, actually, the whole world,via social media. It's how he won the e******n. The Deep State wants to suppress him, but they underestimated him from the beginning. And because Trump gets through to regular silent majority Americans, the Deep State is frozen with fear that we, the American people, like what we hear directly from Trump.
So today the Chairman of this committee, Schiff, interrupts Yovanovitch's testimony and reads a tweet from Trump!
And THEN, Schiff accuses Trump of witness intimidation because HE (Schiff) read a tweet???? WHAT?
So now they are going to add to Trump's impeachment offenses that Schiff read a tweet at the hearing that Trump made? Are these people lawyers?
Quigly almost cried at the fact that Yovanovitch had a "stellar" career and she was treated horribly be being fired. Too bad...so sad. Life happens. Yovanovitch was an Obama appointee. She wanted to continue Obama's policies. Trump told her to stop. She thought she was important enough to ignore Trump...but she underestimated him and he fired her.
Trump can fire Yovanovitch for picking her nose if... (

During testimony to Congress, former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch alternated between sobbing uncontrollably and screaming accusations of political bias at her interrogators. What a wimp!
