White House directed Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch not to appear for her voluntary interview today



Natasha Bertrand ✔ @NatashaBertrand

Just in: House Dems say they learned last night that the “State Department, at the direction of the White House, directed Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch not to appear for her voluntary interview today.” So Dems issued a subpoena.

I suppose she knew that, anyhow. I hope others will follow suit and talk to the Committee.

than those that have accepted posts from IQ45, especially after the first year of this mis-administration. We continually hear "follow the money," but how about "Where are they now?" regarding the "YUGE" list of those that have "served" IQ45?
FAUX NEWS can only hire so many, especially with their own status as "The OFFICIAL HOME OF IQ45" showing signs of a cracking foundation.

But, more courage and credit to her - we need more to step up and shout in the face of the lying bullshit!!!!
