and when people say Trump administration they are talking about the executive cabinet appointed by Trump not your uncle joe who is the janitor.
"verb If you raise a subject, an objection, or a question, you mention it or bring it to someone’s attention.
He had been consulted and had raised no objections."
They mentioned it to her.
I’m not. How do you know what “people” are referring to when they say “Trump administration”.
" It can also mean an executive branch agency headed by an administrator, as the Small Business Administration or the National Archives and Records Administration . The term " administration " has been used to denote the executive branch in presidential systems of government."
Yovanovich with be pushing it uphill to argue that she thought she was being asked if any cabinet minister ever raised the issue with her.
She stated she had hundreds of questions to review for her Senate confirmation hearing. Just about anyone going before the Senate for a confirmation hearing is prepped. There isn’t anything nefarious about prepping for a Senate hearing.
No one is saying there is anything nefarious in being prepped per se. But she lied to the Congress.
We’re not talking about the janitor though are we?
She lied, it’s not even questionable.
She talked about the prep for Senate hearings and the Biden/Burisma question in her deposition.
She made an opening statement, that is posted in the OP.
She talked about the prep for Senate hearings and the Biden/Burisma question in her public testimony.
Are you claiming that her opening statement contained a lie that contradicted her deposition and then that lie was then corrected by her testimony?
She lied, she claimed no one in the administration had discussed it with her.
You didn’t read the transcript of the deposition did you?
You didn’t watch the testimony did you?
Yes I did, what is it you think I missed exactly? Citations please.
Then call Gym Jordan and sick the maddog on her. Woof! woof!
Nothing in the materials says she was prepped with an answer.
AND, all the question tips is that the Obama team expected Republicans to make an issue out of Hunter Biden, in no way does the question indicate their level of concern other than anticipating a question.
This is a huge reach to try to make an issue.
If Stefaniak had been willing to ask a few follow up questions this inquiry might have gotten somewhere but she was more interested at generating a talking-point clip at the end of her time than demonstrating the thesis that Ambassador Yovanovitch was lying.
Yeah…telling the truth takes practice…for some?
She’s possibly already under investigation for her oversight of aid funds to Ukraine under Obama/Biden. Where was all the money sent to Ukraine going to. Trump wants to know.
Since 1992, the U.S. has sent $3 billion to $5 billion in aid to Ukraine, with only cursory public disclosure. The U.S. State Department operates an online database, ForeignAssistance.gov, but names of foreign recipients are often left out, and entire sections are blank. Furthermore, the disclosure often comes long after the money has been distributed.
“It is incredibly hard to find this kind of information,” Nicole Valentinuzzi, communications manager for Publish What You Fund, an international organization promoting transparency for foreign aid.
The main channels of U.S. aid are the State Department; the U.S. Agency for International Department; the National Endowment for Democracy, a nonprofit entity funded through direct appropriations from Congress; and the Millennium Challenge Corporation. Other agencies may provide further funding.
The spending by U.S. government agencies often flows through for-profit companies, including PACT, Democracy International, and Chemonics International. The path of this money creates another layer obscuring the final source of U.S. foreign aid, as the companies distribute money to non-governmental organizations in Ukraine, or to other countries.
“Where’s the U.S. money going?” asked Publish What You Fund U.S. representative Sally Paxton. “If it goes to Chemonics, then who does it go to? And how do you hold the NGOs, whether they’re in the Ukraine or in the U.S., accountable if none of this chain of spending is ever reported?”
Her name is not mentioned at in the article you provided.
You obviously don’t work for nor ever worked for a large organization.
This is standard prep.
As a matter of interest was the most recent appointee to the SC of the USA involved in practice Q&A sessions prior to his confirmation by the Senate? Would part of that preparation involve questions and answers relating to his time in college?
That’s correct. Did I say it was?
You said she might be under investigation. There was no mention that she could be.
