Lied to Congress?

State Department emails obtained by the conservative group Citizens United this week indicate that the former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine was involved in discussions about the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings and even in a meeting with a company representative, despite testifying to Congress during the impeachment inquiry that she knew little about the firm.

Burisma Holdings was at the center of impeachment proceedings against President Trump, after he pressed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a phone call to look into the Biden family’s dealings in Ukraine. Former Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, held a lucrative position on the board of Burisma Holdings.

During the impeachment hearings, many witnesses were questioned about their knowledge of the Biden-Burisma connection, and the firm's reputation in Ukraine. Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, during House testimony last year, said she didn't have much knowledge about the firm, and noted that she only learned of its connection to Biden through "press reports" she read while preparing for her Senate confirmation hearing.

“Burisma wasn’t a big issue in the fall … of 2016, when I arrived,” she said, noting that the investigation and details surrounding its closure “happened before I arrived.”

"It was not a focus of what I was doing in that six-month period," she said.

  5. Yes, yes, all of these serious professionals with long careers steeped in integrity and legitimacy are all lying. They all are out to get Trump. That's right it's the deep state. Why on earth would we believe any of them over our dear leader? Why would we believe any of them over a President that has lied over 18,000 times in his first term?

  6. Well, if you use facebook as an activism platform, as she will with her censoring, then expect to be limited, unless you share her views. Way of the world.

  9. It was evident pretty quickly that her testimony was inaccurate. If the records being found and released show she testified falsely she should be fired and lose her pension, before being prosecuted. There are lot of Obama era bad actors and as they start to peel the onion more will come out. Soros can't provide counsel to every lower level employee who had knowledge or an inkling of what their boss was up to.
