obama fired every bush appointed ambassador as soon as he took power





The incoming Obama administration has notified all politically-appointed ambassadors that they must vacate their posts as of Jan. 20, the day President-elect Barack Obama takes the oath of office, a State Department official said.

The clean slate will open up prime opportunities for the president-elect to reward political supporters with posts in London, Paris, Tokyo and the like. The notice to diplomatic posts was issued this week.

Political ambassadors sometimes are permitted to stay on briefly during a new administration, but the sweeping nature of the directive suggests that Obama has little interest in retaining any of Bush's ambassadorial appointees.

Most ambassadors, of course, are foreign service officers, but often the posts involving the most important bilateral relations (such as with Great Britain, Japan and India) or desirable locales (such as the Bahamas) are given to close friends and well-heeled contributors of the president.

The issue isnt that Trump fired her. The red flag is yet again, Parnas is being linked to Trump and Trump is still claiming he didnt know the guy. Trump, Rudy, Parnas & co. all discussed this action on a conference call.

'Take her out': Recording appears to capture Trump at private dinner saying he wants Ukraine ambassador fired

"A recording reviewed by ABC News appears to capture President Donald Trump telling associates he wanted the then-U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch fired while speaking at a small gathering that included Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman -- two former business associates of Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani who have since been indicted in New York.

The recording appears to contradict statements by Trump and support the narrative that has been offered by Parnas during broadcast interviews in recent days. Sources familiar with the recording said the recording was made during an intimate April 30, 2018, dinner at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Trump has said repeatedly he does not know Parnas... "

LOL....

It's not the act, it's the reasoning.

For example, if two people are hiring someone for a job vacancy:

Boss 1: I don't think candidate A is right because they don't have the relevant experience or qualifications.

Boss 2: I don't think candidate A is right because they're Chinese.

They make the same end decision but the reasoning in one case is illegal.
