No you didn't.
Why are you not answering my question? I wanted a reference so I could read it.

One more time, and then I'm done with this.
Apparently Republican Senators were in on it!
Donald Trump is digging his own grave
If after all that, you're still of the mind that there's no evidence that J. Biden was acting in concert with the international community and official US foreign policy, then there is no point in continuing.
Agreed.
The other thing I've noticed, especially in today's testimony, is that the Democrats are focussing on substance (who said/did what, when), while the Republicans are focussing on impugning the witnesses themselves, while basically ignoring substance. This is very telling...

It says nothing about the official in question. You are assuming a reference never made and support of an act that occurred later.
Supporting the action after the fact is not supporting an action to be taken. Do you have anything from an organization requesting the US to take the specific action of firing the official by the action Biden took? Namely withholding aid for the removal of office?

Yup. They seem quite proud of themselves too. I wonder how such personal attacks against someone like Vindman play with people who are still undecided on this?

The letter specifically called for reforms in the prosecutor's office. And when VP Biden engineered the ouster of the prosecutor, not one Republican or anyone else in the US gov't objected or even complained.
Oh for......are you serious?
Supporting an action after it's happened is not supporting the action? Once again, the stupidity of your arguments is astounding.
I'm not playing your stupid little game. Every time I meet your latest demands, you just demand something else. If you want to stick to the clearly false GOP alternative reality, be my guest.

You are changing reform to mean what you want it to mean.
That is what I requested in the first place. Support for Bidens to take action not support after the fact.
There is a difference. If I support taking an action it means I have knowledge of it prior to the act being made. Supporting it after the fact does not indicate that knowledge
You are making claims. There is no reason why I can not ask for evidence. You have conflated my point about support. Hence why I request evidence of the point I am talking about not the point you want to talk about. As per the above there are different types of support. Prior-action support and post-action support.
Groups wanting him gone is not the same as supporting a specific act to remove him.

You see what your doing is called logic chopping, which is focusing on trivial details instead of directly addressing the main issue in dispute which is Marie Yovanovitch being Prepped to say "Ask the Bidens" about the Bidens clearly a massive conspiracy there.
didn’t you say the Obama administration prepping her meant they were concerned about hunter Biden?

He just was not given a list in writing. She (ambassador) still said some people being investigated was unacceptable.That is still a list just not one written down on paper. He saw that as a list.
Генпрокурор Юрий Луценко не уходит в отставку. Вот что он рассказал нам о конфликтах с послом США и главой НАБУ, деле Burisma, пленках Розенблата и источниках коррупции — большое интервью
"
Who did she call? Who was on her list?
The meeting [with the ambassador] was at the GPU, at this table
Интервью записывалось в кабинете генерального прокурора.
in January 2017. She passed not one on one. She was not alone, and I was not alone. Mrs. Jovanovic was interested in the case of [the former deputy prosecutor general] Vitaliy Kasko [whom the prosecutor’s office of Kiev suspected of fraud in the privatization of housing]. The fact is that Mr. Kasko ordered a mother who never left Lviv in the office apartment - there were signs of abuse
В январе 2017 года прокуратура Киева закрыла дело против Касько «за недостаточностью доказательств».
.
According to her, Kasko was an outstanding anti-corruption figure, and the criminal case [against him] discredited anti-corruption. I set out the details [of the case] and explained that I could not open and close the production at will. He also called a number of so-called anti-corruption officials who are on business. She said that this is unacceptable, they say, will undermine the credibility of anti-corruption activists. I took a piece of paper, recorded the surnames announced and said: “Dictate a list of inviolable persons.” She says: "No, you misunderstood me." I say: “No, I understood you correctly; Earlier, such lists were written [in the Presidential Administration] on Bankovaya, and you propose new lists from Tankovaya
На улице И. Сикорского (бывшая Танковая) в Киеве находится посольство США в Украине.
. ” The meeting is over. I'm afraid the emotions were not very good."

Hey
Im not listening to her 7 hour testimony again. I listened to the other 7 hour or 8 hour whatever it was, yesterday. Now today im going to listen to sondlands. Probably going to be another 7 hours or so.
Its YOU, not i, who needs to watch yovonavich testimony again.
Adam shifts "rules" wer not fair to the republicans. You know it, i know it. Quit making up ****. The republicans wernt talking over anyone. It was adam shift doing the talking over!
No, thats a strawman argument on your part. Quit doing it because it makes you a waste of time.
Whats so hard about this? She LIED! period.
Look again
"Yovanovitch said, "although I have met former vice president Joe Biden several times over the course of our many years in government service, neither he nor the previous administration ever raised the issue of either Burisma or Hunter Biden with me."
Then here shes asked a question
"The first time you personally became aware of Burisma was actually when you were being prepared by the Obama State Department for your Senate confirmation hearings, and this was in the form of practice questions and answers," Stefanik told the former ambassador. "This was your deposition. And you testified in this particular practice Q & A with the Obama State Department, it wasn't just generally about Burisma and corruption. It was specifically about Hunter Biden and Burisma. Is that correct?"
Yovanovitch answered, "Yes. It is."
If you dont see that as a lie cought, you dont know what a dam lie is. Mayby liers dont recognize when there lied to. Theres no cure for zombeism.

Which way to the woods?
It's going to be a poop day of hearings. Nunes, is already resorting to name calling and hyperbole. Nothing refuting the actual evidence . I'm out of popcorn.
Perhaps you need poopcorn?

Not at that time, he couldn't. He was only allowed to yield his time to staff counsel, at that point.
"Only the chair and ranking minority member, or a Permanent Select Committee employee if yielded to by the chair or ranking minority member, may question witnesses during such periods of questioning. At the conclusion of questioning pursuant to this paragraph, the committee shall proceed with questioning under the five-minute rule …"

You say, as you project your denial of the facts onto others.
Here's a news flash for you ... news articles contain information and knowledge about the topic at hand. It sure beats making stuff up!

The only thing it establishes as that they knew the Republicans were going to throw their Ukraine/Biden conspiracy stuff at her (and everyone else, apparently.)

As you already should know, those rules were created by the Republicans. So I'm not sure why they're (and you're) whining about them now.
I haven't made anything up. Nunes, Jordan and Stefanik have tried to speak out of turn several times throughout these hearings. I guess you missed it.
Adam Schiff is the Chair of the committee and is authorized to speak over those who are in not speaking in their proper turn. Somebody has to keep order; that's his job.
It's not a straw man, and that claim doesn't even make sense.
You should read through some of your own posts once in a while, it's a lot of "you lefties this" and "you commies that" and "democrats are communists/zombies" and on and on.
Your posts are extremely partisan in nature.
Raising the issue as a serious concern that needs dealing with, and using the issue as an example during a prep question and answer period, knowing that Republicans are obssessed with the Biden/Ukraine conspiracy theory and knowing that they would grill her on it, are not the same thing at all.
Please call me a liar again though, you're cracking me up. You seem to be coming more and more unhinged here ...
