Rep. Elise Stefanik was not allowed by Schiff to question Yovanovitch until the 5 minute rounds began, but when Stefanik did question her, she exposed how Yovanovitch had testified in Schiff’s secret hearings that the Obama State Department was very concerned about Hunter Biden working for Burisma and the conflict of interest it posed:
Stefanik points out that Yovanovitch testified that she participated in practice confirmation hearings in the Obama administration, taking practice questions specifically regarding Hunter Biden being hired on Burisma’s board.
Stefanik then drops her payload:
“So for the millions of Americans watching, President Obama’s own State Department was so concerned about potential conflicts of interest from Hunter Biden’s role at Burisma that they raised it themselves while prepping this wonderful ambassador nominee before her confirmation. And yet our Democratic colleagues and the chairman of this committee cry foul when we dare ask that same question that the Obama state department was so concerned about.”
So there you go. It was a huge concern for Obama’s own state department but nobody else is allowed to bring it up? And remember, this ‘prepping’ was well before Biden’s infamous comments on it that gave life to Republican concerns about it.
Levin responded to Stefanik’s testimony this way:
BOOM! Stefanik just destroyed the Democrat narrative and these hearings. BUT the media will continue with their Democrat Party propaganda

Levin also wasn’t buying what Yovanovitch was selling in earlier testimony:
Yavonovich curiously disinterested in Burisma as ambassador. Unaware of a Ukrainian hostility to Trump. The article appeared January 2017. She thinks she saw it then. She says if concerns to be handled in United States. Incredible.

2. But even when there no concern Hunter Biden appointed. Not a focus. Can’t recall if ever raised. But Kent went to VP Biden’s office over perception problem he was so concerned. Her testimony is quite slippery.

One of the top Ukrainian officials was trashing candidate Trump and this ambassador knew nothing about it at the time?

So, when it comes to trashing Trump by avtop Ukrainian official and interfering in the 2016 election against Trump, she knows virtually nothing. Is this believable to anyone other than the Democrats and media?
