Marie Yovanovitch told the House committees investigating impeachment that Trump had pushed for her removal as ambassador to Ukraine based on “false claims”, according to the New York Times.

The Times reports:

Marie L. Yovanovitch, who was recalled as the American ambassador to Ukraine, testified to impeachment investigators on Friday that a top State Department official told her that President Trump had pushed for her removal for months even though the department believed she had ‘done nothing wrong.’

In a closed-door deposition that could further fuel calls for Mr. Trump’s impeachment, Ms. Yovanovitch delivered a scathing indictment of his administration’s conduct of foreign policy, warning that private influence and personal gain have usurped diplomats’ judgment, threatening to undermine the nation’s interests and drive talented professionals out of public service.

According to a copy of her opening statement obtained by The New York Times, the longtime diplomat said she was ‘incredulous’ that she was removed as ambassador ‘based, as far as I can tell, on unfounded and false claims by people with clearly questionable motives.’

Trump will be impeached but unlikely run out of office. Pence is in it up to his neck so President Mike Pence will hopefully never happen.
It looks like John Bolton was the source of some of the leaks. It was obvious there was an insider involved in all these leaks.

Bolton wanted White House lawyers alerted to Ukrainian efforts, called it ‘drug deal,’ witness tells Congress

Mulvaney appears to confirm Ukraine aid was tied to probe into 2016 election
Is Trump Cheif of Staff Mulvaney trying to get distance himself? Remember Nixons Chief of staff ended up in jail.

Impeachment vote happening as we speak.

Anyone been following it? There are witnesses who claim Donnie said much more on his infamous phone call than he is letting on. Two witnesses have testified as such and Donnie boy Ambassador Vondland conveniently doesnt recall so many details of his role in the Ukraine shake down.

Its getting to the stage where GOP lawmakers are struggling to defend Trump and its driving him crazy.

Trump impeachment: House to vote on how inquiry should proceed

Its starting to get good. Doubt he'll be removed but he'll be impeached now. He'll always have that stain on his presidency.

Trump needs someone to attack and so far the dems have skillfully only given him difficult targets, loyal patriots, but he's still tried. His tactics are so basic at times.

Bottom line, it all depend on his GOP minions actually doing something and I cant really see them doing anything unless the revelations become too much. Election year next year and some of them are in difficult seats. They cant p*ss off Trumps base.

I'm with you on that.
We shall see. Nixon also started with a strong support. As you say, it all depends what comes out. But there's potential.
GOP has sunk so low but they could be swayed if public opinion turns against them.
On the face of it Donnie has done so much worse than Nixon. It is a high treason territory.

Agree. Trumps crimes are much worse than Nixon. I'm curious to see who he attacks though.
