Giuliani's another thug Trump's paying to ensure he remains in office so the Trump syndicate's global business can continue to profit.
How much have Trump's golf courses made when he goes there to play games of golf paid for by taxpayers.

Pretty much sums it up.
Dunno, but WaPo is reporting that the Secret Service was forced to pay $650 a night to stay at Mar-a-Largo. But the good news is that Trump donates his salary, right?

And look at the way Trump has attacked Lt. Col. Vindman, a decorated war hero.
Think about it, Trump the cowardly draft dodger attacking Lt. Col. Vindman the brave war hero.
Absolutely despicable. These people have no shame.

Well done Madame Ambassador - thank you for a stellar 34 year career in service to your country.
Soon we'll clear the State Dept and the White House of the cowards and traitors that tried, unsuccessfully, to tarnish your reputation.

Yesterday Trump has sacked another 70 Obama left overs. Democrats should be happy to have them a witness for the second impeachment saga. Trump will remove the mask of Soros children in the white house and the evil empire of Obama Clinton dynasty.

She committed perjury when she said she turned down the visa for Viktor Shokin because of corruption.
PTownsend
I checked and Glenn Beck also said she committed 'perjury'. I can't hold my nose to see whether other alt right sources are saying the same thing, but have to wonder why the alt right Trump/Barr 'legal' system hasn't (single entity exclusively for the protection of their fellow 'elite') gone after her for doing so.
Serrano
She was also bad mouthing the president whilst ambassador to Ukraine.
The ambassador serves at the pleasure of the president. He wasn't pleased. End of story.

Marie Yovanovitch failed to support the elected U.S. President, and the President's policies. Marie Yovanovitch failed to do her job. Therefore, Marie Yovanovitch lost her job. That is why it no longer matters what political claims Democrats are making, or who they chose to champion. Democrat claims are simply not very convincing.

Would you support something you thought was unconstitutional, illegal or both?
By "policies" you mean transparent, brazen efforts to solicit foreign aid in getting dirt on a political opponent to help get himself re-elected?
Blacklabel
well of course she would, its all part of #resistance.
Chip Star
Whats your theory about that conspiracy?
bass4funk
The man indicted trying to save his skin, the very same man that problems and a history of...wait for it...credibility...well, the impeachment farce is over anyway....
...or so the liberal contrived talking points go...somewhat.
bass4funk
Bingo! Spot on and cutting through all the idiocy liberal hyperbole, that’s all there is to it
Chip Star
A Donny supporter questioning anyone’s credibility is the height of intellectual dishonesty.

She and about 7 billion people around the world "bad mouth" this President daily.
She may have served at the pleasure of the President for 34 years, but only the current Despot President didn't like her loyalty to the USA.
Cant wait till Despot Donnie is out of the White house and in the Jail house where he belongs.
lincolnman
Yep, he's a skunk - a given since he's Rudy's business partner and FOD (Friend of Donnie) - wonder how many more videos he has of them yucking it up together...
Darn Fox News - handing out those contrived liberal talking points...

So explain why your hero Barr has Rudy under investigation? We'll be waiting...

No surprise that the establishment is giving an award to an ex US ambassador who was politicking for Hillary/ Democrats while on the job.
Wolfpack
Says those who believed the dossier was real and not funded by Democrats and later used in an attempt to undermine the 2016 election.
Strangerland
That's an interesting theory you have on a conspiracy there.
Seems legit. Carry on.
Chip Star
Any actual evidence she was politicking for Hillary (she takes up a lot of space in your head)/Democrats? Just one iota will suffice to demonstrate you have any clue what you’re talking about.
arrestpaul
She DID serve at the pleasure of the President. OTOH, you only have to wait five years until Trump won't be eligible to run for President again. Tick tock, tick tock.
arrestpaul
That's unbelievable.

Elected Democrats set the stage for unproductive government when they chose to begin their "resist" movement three years ago.
Alfie Noakes
No it's not. Your president is viewed as a crude, pig-ignorant, sub-literate, sexually abusing criminal fraudster and childish bully by billions of people all over the world.
Here's the Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle: https://youtu.be/IVYatqhph9g?t=286
arrestpaul
Scottish comedian? Seriously? That's the best you can do? Well, it is a step above what the CNN-types have been shoveling on to the foolish public.
Chip Star
It’s direct evidence that contradict your claim that it’s unbelievable non-Americans openly trash Donny.
cleo
I think the idea is that Scottish comedians don't count because the accent is incompatible with 'real American English'.
But you don't have to be a paid comedian to make fun of Trump. The Impeached Orange Chosen One makes it all too easy.
What's unbelievable is that a goodly proportion of the US population apparently think Trump isn't a figure of ridicule.

Chip Star
Too right.
arrestpaul
That's not what I said.
2nd, comedians write jokes. Many times they have writers write jokes for them. The purpose of their jokes is to entertain a paying public. Some people chose to get their "news", or "facts" from people who are writing jokes instead of facts.
Wolfpack
There is hope for you.
Wolfpack
Ridicule all you want - meanwhile the retirement investments of Americans are ballooning in value and more and more conservative judges are being put on the bench every week. The ridicule of Lefty globalists are meaningless by comparison. Bring it on - it must make you feel better about Hillary’s loss. It’s the least I can do.
Alfie Noakes
Well, that went right over your head, didn't it.
Yip. Frankie Boyle, love him or loathe him, is well-known as a scathing comedian but his utter contempt and total disdain for Trump is just a mirror of how people all over the world feel about your man. Nobody made jokes like that about Clinton or Obama and even the war criminal Bush 2 wasn't subject to such ridicule. You folks really must inhabit an alternative reality if you can't believe that Trump is an object of contempt for millions.
Peter14
Yep with further illegal foreign assistance and interference Trump may indeed manage to get another term to continue to demolish America and its little remaining international credibility.
After which he will need to flee America or face life in prison for his numerous crimes against America. I am sure his boss Putin will have a lovely tower he can live in in Moscow. That or jail where he really belongs.
