Once again, and this happened after the news cycle, so I didn't get a chance to put it in my Friday show.
Alan SandersHOST
66:24
But the State Department declassified some emails and documents that show beyond a shadow of a doubt that former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, received frequent briefings from top aides on Burisma and Hunter Biden, which conflicts with her congressional impeachment testimony.
Alan SandersHOST
66:47
According to the first highly classified, never to be seen in the light of the day, now released, those internal emails also show that her deputy in Kiev, we used to call it Kiev when we were growing up, but now it's Kiev, believed the Burisma-Biden relationship was adversely affecting U.S. policy.

Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, one of the Democrats' star witnesses in their first impeachment of Donald Trump, received repeated briefings, emails, and memos related to the Ukrainian energy company that employed Hunter Biden.
Alan SandersHOST
67:26
That's according to those declassified documents that directly conflict her and other witnesses' testimony in their failed bid seven years ago to try to remove the president from office.
Alan SandersHOST
67:38
The documents, which were released yesterday by the White House Government Transparency Task Force, show Yovanovitch and her aides were apprised of corruption concerns about Burisma Holdings, efforts by the company to repair its image or curry U.S. favor that would not pass the Washington Post sniff test, and even bid to get the Trump administration to approve a U.S. visa for Burisma's controversial owner, Mikolo Zlochevsky.

One of the Democrats star witnesses in their first impeachment of Donald Trump received repeated briefings, emails and memos related to the Ukrainian energy company that employed none other than Hunter Biden.
Rick ThomasHOST
19:20
according to declassified documents that directly conflict with her and other witnesses' testimony in the failed bid seven years ago to remove the president from office.
John SolomonHOST
6:51
First, to understand it, you have to go back and remember what it was that we were all told at the time o- of the 2019 impeachment.
John SolomonHOST
7:01
The storyline was Hunter Biden did nothing wrong, uh, with Burisma, and Burisma was such a minor issue that not even the diplomat and, um, a top US diplomat in, uh, in Kiev, Marie Yovanovitch, or her deputy, uh, George Kent, really thought much of about it.
John SolomonHOST
7:17
I think they called it no big deal, uh, or something to those words.
John SolomonHOST
7:21
Just wasn't a big deal, I think maybe was the exact words that Marie Yovanovitch.
John SolomonHOST
7:24
And they, uh, Marie Yovanovitch said, "Listen, it was such a, not a big deal, I don't think I ever got briefed on it, except in my briefing book when I went for my confirmation.
John SolomonHOST
7:31
I've got nothing." Uh, and, um, Hunter Biden's role, while some people viewed it, like George Kent, uh, the guy with the bow tie, viewed it as, uh, a potential appearance of a conflict of interest.
John SolomonHOST
7:43
The, the storyline the Democrats gave was, uh, it didn't affect US policy.
John SolomonHOST
8:39
It wasn't on their radar, and it didn't affect US policy.
John SolomonGUEST
2:44
Well, it turns out that's not really what happened behind the scenes.
John SolomonGUEST
2:47
There were two famous witnesses, the former ambassador to Kiev for the United States, Marie Yovanovitch, and her top deputy, uh, George Kent.
John SolomonGUEST
2:55
He wore the bow tie.
John SolomonGUEST
2:56
He's kind of famous, uh, in the pictures from that timeframe.
John SolomonGUEST
3:21
They were dealing with everything from pressure from Hunter Biden's, uh, colleagues to, uh, rehabilitate Burisma, to trying to get Burisma, the energy company's former CEO or current CEO, Mykola Zlochevsky, a US visa that he wasn't entitled to.
John SolomonGUEST
3:35
They were dealing with this regularly, despite what they said in their testimony.
John SolomonGUEST
3:39
But the killer document of all the documents that we were able to release today, the one with the most, uh, significance to impeachment and to history, in a classified email that we've now declassified, uh, George Kent, the deputy, told his boss, Marie Yovanovitch, these are the two stars of the impeachment hearings, that, uh, someone in Washington needed to go talk, tell Joe Biden that his son, Hunter Biden's presence on the Burisma board undercut the anti-corruption strategy for the United States in Ukraine.
John SolomonGUEST
4:08
Their testimony was it had no impact.
Zak PaineHOST
46:32
Now, here also, some new details have come out.
Zak PaineHOST
46:36
Documents have been released about former Trump impeachment Ukraine whistleblower, the former ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, and George Kent, another man who testified against President Trump.
Zak PaineHOST
46:51
There is just a clip I wanted to show here.
Zak PaineHOST
46:54
This is John Solomon talking about some of the documents that were released.
Zak PaineHOST
46:58
Effectively, the documents call into question her testimony, as if we didn't already know that Marie Yovanovitch got up there and lied because she was part of a coordinated campaign to get President Trump impeached and have him removed from office.
Zak PaineHOST
47:11
In this clip, John is discussing how there was communication with the Biden administration from Marie Obanovich talking about how Hunter Biden's corrupt efforts in Ukraine were undermining the U.S. government's anti-corruption efforts.
Zak PaineHOST
47:27
And, of course, that's not something we didn't already know.
Rick RobinsonHOST
36:09
Um, so I'm just gonna give you a little bit of a rundown here.
Rick RobinsonHOST
36:13
So a former US ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, one of the Democrats' star witnesses in the first impeachment of Donald Trump, received repeated briefings, emails, and memos related to the Ukrainian energy company that employed Hunter Biden.
Rick RobinsonHOST

John SolomonGUEST
33:29
There was a very good reason, very strong reason to a- for President Trump to ask Ukraine to investigate, uh, Hunter Biden, Burisma, and his corrupt relations with that energy company.
John SolomonGUEST
33:41
The reason is, and these documents were kept from the impeachment trial, is that our own top diplomats, the guy with the bow tie that showed up in impeachment named George Kent, and Marie Yovanovitch, uh, uh, sometimes called the crying ambassador, um, that the two of them had privately discussed this extraordinary topic, not once, not twice, but dozens of times.
John SolomonGUEST
34:02
And why is that important? 'Cause when they were testifying, they told Congress that they, this was never on their radar.
John SolomonGUEST
34:08
They, they barely ever talked about it.
John SolomonGUEST
34:10
"Hunter Biden was no big deal." That's actually a quote from Marie Yovanovitch, the ambassador.
John SolomonGUEST
34:16
That testimony was false.
John SolomonGUEST
34:17
There was regular and routine, uh, conversation about Burisma, its corruption, the impact of Hunter Biden on US policy, and more importantly, uh, Burisma's efforts to influence the government of the United States to get rid of its corruption label, to deliver for Hunter Biden, and more, even more amazingly, its corrupt owner, a guy named Mykola Zlochevsky.
John SolomonGUEST
35:41
It shows that they didn't tell the truth.
John SolomonGUEST
30:44
There was a very good reason, very strong reason, to a- for President Trump to ask Ukraine to investigate, uh, Hunter Biden, Burisma, and his corrupt relations with that energy company.
John SolomonGUEST
30:56
The reason is, and these documents were kept from the impeachment trial, is that our own top diplomats, the guy with the bow tie that showed up in impeachment named George Kent, and Marie Yovanovitch, uh, sometimes called the crying ambassador, um, that the two of them had privately discussed this extraordinary topic.
John SolomonGUEST
31:14
Not once, not twice, but dozens of times.

John SolomonHOST
10:40
Well, today we saw a different story.
John SolomonHOST
10:42
In a email between the then ambassador to Ukraine, uh, Marie Yovanovitch, and her deputy, George Kent, the two star witnesses of impeachment, they acknowledged that Hunter Biden had undercut, that's their word, undercut US anti-corruption policy in Ukraine.
John SolomonHOST
10:59
