Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who was a key witness in the impeachment inquiry into President Trump last year, will retire from the military, he announced in a tweet.
"Today I officially requested retirement from the US Army, an organization I love," Vindman wrote Wednesday.

After President Trump was acquitted by the Senate, Vindman and his brother, Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, who was also an NSC official, were both reassigned to the Army. (source here)
“witness”? A witness has had to testify to facts he or she knows to be true. Vindman only swore to others telling him things. He had no first-hand knowledge. His “knowledge” is at best second- or third-hand. He was not a witness; he was (and is) a witless.

Lock this Ukrainian dork up!!
You nailed it
I wonder if his request was done in an involuntary voluntary manner. Meaning he was going to receive the crappiest duties the military could think of until he left on his own volition. I am pretty sure this was not altogether a 100% voluntary request since it is so close to an election and Biden is going to win /s.
Promotions are time sensitive. An officer has a certain window to qualify for promotion and get approved. I imagine his exercise in lunchroom gossip and subsequent security escort out of the White House left a frowny face in his service file and he could see that full Colonel was not happening.
That sorry POS will be a multi-millionaire shortly after retirement.
I wager he will have a ghost written book ready for the NYT best sellers list before October and that is his get rich quick plan.
Maybe he will move to the Ukraine. In his testimony he stated the President, Poroshenko, (or one of the other political leaders) wanted his an chief of the Ukrainian armed forces.
Vindman is getting paid off. He’ll write a book, hit the rubber chicken circuit and the hate Trump corporate crowd will give him a lot of money to bash POTUS.
That makes sense....A hired basher before the election.
Passed over and being forced out! He is radioactive at this point.
He probably thinks he can retire ahead of a court martial.
His legal problems are just over the horizon.
They’re generally done by unanimous consent. She could object.
I was really hoping that he was going to be posted to Dead Horse, Alaska before he retired.
The Peter Principle ate his lunch. He somehow got promoted until he reached his level of incompetency.
or maybe Defense Minister of Ukraine?
You belong in Jail you traitorous Puke!
