Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch testified Friday that the Obama administration was so concerned about Hunter Biden’s job on Burisma’s board of directors that she was asked prep questions about the issue by White House staffers before her 2016 Senate confirmation.
In response to questions from GOP counsel Stephen Castor, Yovanovitch testified at the House Intelligence Committee’s second public impeachment hearing that she had been informed about the lucrative gig Hunter Biden landed with the petroleum producer — which paid the son of then-Vice President Joe Biden as much as $50,000 a month despite his seeming lack of relevant experience —

So Obama wanted to make sure she stayed on as an anti-Trump mole and skewed her answers to the confirmation committee to make her look at the very least neutral so she would keep her job and be in a position to sabotage and report back..

But as Ambassador, she knew nothing.

So, if she was informed, and knew, did she withhold this critical information that the Obama admin was concerned about, from others at the Ukrainian embassy?
If so, why?
If not, then why would her successor not know as it should have been in the briefing notes as a matter of concern for at least a number of years.
Now, we know why Joe Biden threatened U.S. money unless they fired the prosecutor that was investigating the company his son was a Board member of.

There is no doubt that she was carrying out the Obama Administration formulated foreign policy initiatives until the day she was recalled from Kiev to Washington, DC, just as if President Trump was never elected.
She was Obama’s Ambassador to Ukraine and Trump had the presidential authority to remove her and install his own ambassador as he has the right to have Ambassadors around the world who will professionally carry out his foreign policy directives, including advising foreign governments to investigate and put down corruption, especially in countries that are known to be corrupt to the core, that are receiving US foreign aid money and other assistance. In that respect after Barack Obama was elected he removed every US Ambassador who was appointed by G.W. Bush and installed his own ambassadors.
As was said in the Democrat inquisition this morning, when you start to investigate corruption you are bound to get the attention of and discombobulate the people who are perpetrating the corruption and their supporters political and otherwise. So what does it tell you that the Democrats have been acting so discombobulated these days?

Yet, she had no concern or follow up about Burisma and Biden once she was posted in Ukraine. It was not a concern of impropriety from the obama admin during her confirmation either. They were trying to cover for Biden and wanted to make sure she answered the questions in a way that would not draw too much attention to the pay to play. The nerve of her for complaining that Giuliani was out to get her. For no reason. Notice how she had to mention that two of the men who came to Ukraine with Giuliani were indicted in New York for some crime. They were indicted, but it doesn't mean she's pure as the driven snow. She was relieved of her duty, and she's been a diplomat for 31 years. She should get over it! She's so full of integrity, but to get back at PDT, she signs on with the take-down coup crew because her character was assaulted. Woo-woo.

In the 5th paragraph, Ms. Yovanovitch did not provide an answer to Minority Attorney Castor when he asked her how she was prepped by Obama staffers to respond to any questions about Hunter Biden at her Senate confirmation hearing.
It wasn't until 11th paragraph in the article, when in answer to same question by Rep. Ratliffe about being prepped by Obama's staffers for her Senate confirmation, that Ms. Yovanovitch said she was told that she should respond to any questions about Hunter Biden, by telling questioners that they should:
". . . refer to the Vice President's office on that."

You would never know this by what the media is saying. All I hear is that this poor lady was intimidated by our President and nothing about her actual role.

Bottom line: She's as dirty as Shiff for Brains and the rest of the commie cabal. Otherwise, Barry would never have installed her. Foggy Bottom should be hosed out.

When all is said and done on this Hunter Biden story, the biggest shot fired at him will be the questions asked about whether Hunter moved to Eukrania or learned to speak Eukraini .

She tried to deflect them.....
NObama/Bite Me must be protected AT ALL COSTS because going down THAT rabbit hole would reveal plans to overthrow the country via the election of Madam Broomstick who would have NEVER had people looking into their unholy alliances and funding sources using outside money and OUR OWN hard-earned taxpayer dollars to undemine our own stable system of governance with ant "checks" on their dictatorial power they wanted to impose.
