It is interesting considering
Ambassador
to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch’s testimony
this past week, to be watching The Adventures of Jack Ryan [Amazon Prime]
Season 2 – Episode 6 “Persona non Grata”.
I had to stop watching
the Prime episode, halfway through, because it was so probably
real in its’ depiction of a situation gone awry, and I wanted to write these
thoughts down. No one’s fault explicitly,
but they are evacuating the Embassy in Caracas, because of “bad actors”
stirring the pot. There is potential
election fraud and corruption in the government going on.
The bottom line is
that the Ambassador (a woman) is dealing with the situation as best she
can. There are rogue Venezuelans, as
well as many foreign “agents” stirring up unrest, all with different
agendas. It is a seething cauldron of
chaos.
That’s Marie Yovanovitch’s
workplace environment, and she didn’t stoop to displaying her dirty laundry,
but as a loyal American State Department employee, she just answered the questions
asked.
