Tucker Carlson says leaked email shows Ex-Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch lied under oath

Oops! Adam Schiff’s star witess may have lied under oath -- not a good look for public testimony slated next week in the "impeachment inquiry."  Last night, Tucker Carlson revealed that his show had received exclusive access to an email from the personal account of former Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch that contradicts testimony she offered under oath.  The fired former ambassador who disagrees with Trump administration policy is a key witness for Adam Schiff’s impeachment efforts. The segment is embedded below [update: Fox News appears to hav eblocked the video for more than one second], and was explained online by Greg Re of Fox News:

Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, a key witness in House Democrats' impeachment inquiry, communicated via her personal email account with a Democratic congressional staffer concerning a "quite delicate" and "time-sensitive" matter -- just two days after the whistleblower complaint that kickstarted the inquiry was filed, and a month before the complaint became public, emails obtained Thursday by Fox News showed.

The emails appear to contradict Yovanovitch's deposition on Capitol Hill last month, in which she told U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, R-N.Y., about an email she received Aug. 14 from the staffer, Laura Carey -- but indicated under oath that she never responded to it.

The communication came "from the Foreign Affairs Committee," and "they wanted me to come in and talk about, I guess, the circumstances of my departure," Yovanovitch testified, describing Carey's initial email. "I alerted the State Department, because I'm still an employee, and so, matters are generally handled through the State Department."

Yovanovitch continued: "So, she emailed me. I alerted the State Department and, you know, asked them to handle the correspondence. And, she emailed me again and said,

The mainstream media won’t want to touch this, but there’s no denying she lied under oath. Add that to Shifty Schiff lying about meeting with the “whistleblower” and the Dims’ impeachment certainly looks shady.

Any and all such behavior will be seen as perfectly permissible until such time as someone is charged with a crime for the behavior.

Hasn’t happened yet.

I’ll give you odds that Bill Taylor lied under oath when he testified that he’d never heard of Eric Ciaramella.

Gee, is there so much contradictory and counter punched testimony that a real prosecuter would toss the whole thing out. And for the most part all of it 2nd or 3rd hand accounts as far as I can tell. QUIT WASTING OUR TAX DOLLARS MORE THAN YOU ALREADY DO! Oh, and schiff-4-brains———FAH-Q!

The Democrats would have to be insane (well, duh) to have the House vote out articles of impeachment. Once they do, they lose control of the process and hand it to Mitch McConnell.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least that they keep up with this charade but never actually get to voting out articles from the House. They may get articles out of a committee, but they won’t get them to a vote on the House floor.

I can hear them say that getting articles out of committee is “deemed” impeachment as they know the “partisan” Senate won’t do their job and hold a “fair” hearing. So this is as far as they’ll go and say that they need a Democrat-controlled Senate to “ensure justice is served” or other such nonsense.

I’m still waiting for someone to go to jail for the whole Russian collusion farce.

I am more interested in who provided the info to Tucker. There are probably a lot of those mine fields floating around if someone would just provide the info

Laws ceased to exist the day that Trump decided to eliminate the office of Attorney General.

My guess is someone at DOS. JW got a hat tip from someone about monitoring journalists.

So???? Who is going to do something about the liar? No damn Republican for sure. America is currently being controlled by the communist Democrats, MSM and various criminal organizations.
