It’s a good thing that Vindman is a partisan democrat. If a decent American stated anything false under oath, he would be prosecuted, perhaps even arrested in the middle of the night by 17 FBI agents while CNN happens to be in the area with camera crews. If the duly-elected President of the United States did that, even on the most trivial of issues, the democrats would clutch their pearls as they squeaked “Impeach!”. When a leftist who supports globalism does it? Nothing.

I know LTC Alex Vindman from a Combined US-Russian exercise called Atlas Vision 12 in Grafenwoher, GE.
He worked w/the Russian Embassy & I was assigned to the JMTC (Joint Multinational Training Command), w/in USAREUR (US Army Europe). He worked coordination w/the Russian 15th Peacekeeping Brigade, & I was in charge of all Simulations planning, as well as assisting the USAREUR Lead Planner as the Senior Military Planner.
The following account of LTC Vindman’s words & actions are completely accurate to the best of my recollection & have been corroborated by others.
We interacted on several different occasions throughout the planning cycle, but it was during the actual execution of the exercise, that we had an issue relevant to his recent testimony.
As stated earlier, Atlas Vision 12 was conducted at JMTC in the VBS2 (Virtual Battle Simulations 2) Classrooms for Simulation. Vindman, who was a Major at the time, was sitting in one of the classrooms talking to the US & Russian Soldiers, as well as the young Officers & GS Employees about America, Russia, & Obama.
He was apologetic of American culture, laughed about Americans not being educated or worldly, & really talked up Obama & globalism to the point of uncomfortable.
He would speak w/the Russian Soldiers & laugh as if at the expense of the US personnel. It was so uncomfortable & unprofessional, one of the GS employees came & told me everything above. I walked over & sat w/in earshot of Vindman, & sure enough, all was confirmed.
One comment truly struck me as odd, & it was w/respect to American’s falsely thinking they’re exceptional, when he said, “He [Obama] is working on that now.” And he said it w/a snide ‘I know a secret’ look on his face. I honestly don’t know what it meant, it just sounded like an odd thing to say.
Regardless, after hearing him bash America a few times in front of subordinates, Russians, & GS Employees, as well as, hearing an earful about globalization, Obama’s plan, etc…I’d had enough. I tapped him on the shoulder & asked him to step outside.
At that point I verbally reprimanded him for his actions, & I’ll leave it at that, so as not to be unprofessional myself. The bottom-line is LTC Vindman was a partisan Democrat at least as far back as 2012. So much so, junior officers & soldiers felt uncomfortable around him.
This is not your professional, field-grade officer, who has the character & integrity to do the right thing. Do not let the uniform fool you…he is a political activist in uniform. I pray our nation will drop this hate, vitriol & division, & unite as our founding fathers intended
I need to make a slight correction on my statement, it was actually Atlas Vision 13 when the incident occurred. I was thrown off, as the next year Russia invaded Crimea. Also, I was promoted to Chief, Regional, Joint & Combined Exercises Branch, USAREUR, over many exercises.

Well, isn’t Roger Stone facing 50 years for “lying to Congress”?
Conduct unbecoming ...... not sure that's a court martial offense.
If I were on the jury, I would conclude by the NON response, that the person to whom he confided would be the whistleblower, so he is not OUTED...Good prosecutors do this.
Media mum or Trump intimidation.
Democrats don’t get arrested.
Listening to the exchanges it was apparent that Schittforbrains outed the fact that Vin-wind-man was colluding with ‘Charlie’ who we know was a CIA agent planted in the White House!
Rush thinks Vinman is the whistleblower.
“That’s different!” (Sarc)
You mean the same perjury that Marie Y. committed on Friday? Yeah, nobody cares but us.
More importantly, going around the chain of command? Civilians might be able to get away with this, but from what I understand this is a serious crime in the military. Especially if it implicates the Commander In Chief. Trump may not have any military background but that DOES NOT MATTER at this point.
He is now the CIC by all Constitutional rights afforded the President of the United States. This is subversion in the worst way. He would have been better off presenting himself as a civilian than “parading and representing himself as military upholding military standards and protocol”. Because the military are held to a much higher standard and restrictions concerning chain of command.
I keep hoping to hear a republican ask lil’ Schitt to cite the specific statute that guarantees a WB’s anonymity
I can't wait until Schiff has to testify in front of the Senate and will publicly be called out as a liar.
Its as close as we'll get to public justice for Schiff.
I’m pretty sure it is...
“I’m now thinking that A. Vindman is the whistleblower.”
Eric Ciaramella is the Fake Whistleblower #1
Vindman is the Fake WB #2 - he’s working with CIA’s Ciaramella in this coup effort.
But after hearing that he has "special security", after hearing his opinion of himself and noting that his brother is an NCS attorney with his office next door to his brothers....and the do not answer today
I'm considering agreeing with Rush
Nope. I think I saw Chris Wallace under Vindman's table on his knees.
Vindman can’t be the whistleblower because he is state department not intel. And the whistleblower is an intel employee.
However Vindman is the leaker who told the whistleblower.
lol
