Trump Smears Yovanovitch as She Testifies

November 15, 2019 at 10:14 am EST By Taegan Goddard 86 Comments

President Trump on Twitter:

Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad. She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors.

They call it “serving at the pleasure of the President.” The U.S. now has a very strong and powerful foreign policy, much different than proceeding administrations. It is called, quite simply, America First! With all of that, however, I have done FAR more for Ukraine than O.


I hope to hell he gets the book thrown at him. Witness intimidation, for starters. This is illegal!

I hope most Americans experienced a shiver when Schiff read that Tweet.
