My question is “What was the US Ambassador doing involving herself in the internal running of Ukraine’s governance?” Everything I heard this woman say was that she was heavily involved in Ukraine’s law enforcement and perhaps even in their elections. She seemed to have her fingers into a lot of the internal affairs of Ukraine, not just representing the US with the government that happened to be in power as she found it, but rather trying to CHANGE things there.
I noticed several times in the Ambassador’s testimony, when she was answering questions, that her eyes shifted distinctly down and to the left. This is a well known sign of lying. . . a sign she is making up her answers as she unconsciously looks toward the imaginative side of the brain as she composes her replies. It was obvious as a red flag waving and jumping up and down proclaiming that ‘I am am lying now!’ She has obvious tells. When she was consulting memory, she would look up and to the right, another pattern of looking toward the area of the brain when consulting real memories.
It was telling that she prefaced her comments by telling the committee members that she really knew NOTHING about events preceding or following her tenure as ambassador, but then answered questions on events, obviously speculating on possible “facts” and making up responses as though she did have authoritative answers to Democrat queries that were dispositive. She most often looked down and to the left during the answering of these type of questions.
In addition, she seems to be enamored of the EXISTING policy put in place by Obama’s State Department, not what President Trump and the new Secretary of State was attempting to do. You can see why a president would want to use a secondary channel of diplomacy out side of the Department of State when the bureaucrats inside the department are part of the “resistance” to his administration, blocking and countering his policies at every opportunity because they disagree with them, or just because they are politically opposed to his political party. We have never seen such a concerted effort by unelected apparatchiks doing such behavior before.
It's been hidden from view. Trump and reaction to his policies is exposing the fact that the US is run by unelected bureaucrats and their complicit press.
Because the CIA found it simpler to use the Ambassador as their 'insider'.
