Trump lawless allies (Giuliani & others) call Yovanovitch's actions to stop their work, OBSTRUCTION!

Trump Personally Ordered Ambassador Recalled Because She Wouldn’t Pressure Ukraine To Investigate Biden



The Wall Street Journal reported:

President Trump ordered the removal of the ambassador to Ukraine after months of complaints from allies outside the administration, including his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, that she was undermining him abroad and obstructing efforts to persuade Kyiv to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, according to people familiar with the matter.

The recall of Marie Yovanovitch in the spring has become a key point of interest in the House impeachment inquiry. A whistleblower complaint by a CIA officer alleges the president solicited foreign interference in the 2020 elections by pressing Ukraine’s president in a July 25 call to pursue investigations, including into the activities of Mr. Biden, a Democrat who is running for president.

One of Marie Yovanovitch’s top priorities as ambassador was fighting corruption in Ukraine. If Trump’s goal was to fight corruption, there was no reason to remove Yovanovitch. - PoliticusUSA

This strikes at the heart of the matter, unleashed abuse of power and absolute unethical corruption on the part of the POTUS and his lackey allies. All these republicans are ethically bankrupt.
