    The Laws referred to are those of the USA....not those of a foreign power.

    But, it wasn't just Biden and his son . It was also to obtain evidence that the 2016 election interference was from the Ukraine, not from Russia. And, that would reverse the Intelligence agencies and the Mueller's Report (all part of the Trump administration) conclusion that it was the Russians. If the GOP wants to run on a "Pro-Putin Platform" in 2020, let 'em run. Also, he withheld aid without notifying Congress of the cause...and that's an abuse of power.

    You're proving my point, too. You should hear yourself.

    She's not worthy of respect.

    I have plenty of capacity for warmth and comfort. I have plenty of skin. You point is?

    Do you regard that as acceptable conduct by a POTUS?

    Regarding the Thread Title. I watched pretty much all of Yovanovitch's questioning, and at no time did I see any point being put to her that she had lied, or perjured herself. It seems this longbow allegation is based on some routine prepping during a 2016 (it is now 2019 folks).....mock up thing......she was provided with a stock answer should she be asked at her Senate confirmation about the fact that Biden Jnr was on the Burisma Board. The stock answer was proposed to be...'You should refer that to the Office of the VP.' That is a totally different question as to whether she was aware of any corrupt activity by Biden Jnr or misconduct by Biden Jnr in Ukraine.

    He is regularly rude. The Democrats treated Yovanovitch in a very condescending way and shame on her for playing along with performance art. That is truly appalling.

    And you obviously missed the that she knew of no instances where Trump had tried to bribe anyone. She also clearly lied about not knowing that Biden had bragged about his bribing the Ukraine government.

    Was it undeniable private and public denigration of her, defamatory of her, and demeaning to her, in your opinion?

    He has publicly stated that he doesn’t care what the House Democrats do. In fact that would be a great campaign talking point. The Schiff Show sound bites are priceless.

    I don't know why you bother with this stuff. I did not see her being asked that question.

    I did not see her say that either. Link?

    She was criticized. She is a professional. She played along with the demeaning treatment by the Democrats. She was removed part by the negative input from the new Ukrainian President.

    Of course you didn’t. That’s due to your “news” sources.

    Was it undeniable private and public denigration of her, defamatory of her, and demeaning to her, in your opinion? In your opinion, is that appropriate conduct by any POTUS. Remember, the Lady was the US Ambassador to Ukraine, not Trump's private janitor.

    Are you asserting that the broadcaster has corrupted the live coverage of the Committee's proceedings? I watched it. That is my source.

    No, there are no more men left in the White House. Trump thinks he is monarch so you know how the English royal family is the House of Windsor well Trump has the House of Eunach. Started with the VEEP who voluntarily had been deballed so any " man " who takes a political appointment post in the WH has to have THEM cut off.

    Trumpians do not give a Schiest about anything but defending their assistant POTUS. Remember that Trump reports to Putin.
