WASHINGTON -- A U.S. official says the Army and local law enforcement are providing security for the officer who is testifying Tuesday during the House impeachment hearing.

The official said the Army is prepared to take additional steps if needed, which could include moving Vindman and his family to a more secure location on a base.

During his testimony, Vindman told lawmakers that he was offered the post of Ukraine’s defense minister three times but rejected the suggestion.

"I immediately dismissed these offers," said, adding that two American officials witnessed the exchange with a top adviser to Zelenskiy, and that he notified his chain of command and counterintelligence officials about the offer upon returning to the U.S.

I believe that the Army brass is indeed against us. I urge everyone here to read up on our Founders’ fears of a standing army. It is, by the way, one reason for the 2nd Amendment.

This is being announced to feed the Liberal Supremacists the idea that Lt. Ballsy Ford may be in danger from Trump.

THEY ARE EVIL.

The brig is run by Marines. I’d love to see him in their custody.

You are closer to going to Leavenworth than he is? In fact, he will be soaking up the sun on some resort beach while you are slaving away. In other words, nothing bad will happen to him.

As far aswishes and wants go, I would like to see him on the end of a rope with about 10 feet between him and the ground. But that is not going to happen either.

“Army Providing Security for Vindman During Probe”

Maybe the rumor was out he was going to implicate the Clintons in the Ukraine fiasco and he needed protection against Arkancide.

The Navy Department saw no need to protect LTC North from the Iranians.

Can President Trump take back the Purple Heart?

This is outrageous...

On the July 25 call, Trump asked Zelenskiy to do him a favor and investigate Biden and his son.

They keep repeating the lie...PT asked for a favor, look into Crowdstrike.

Then.....He told the committee that Sondland later said the Ukrainians needed to provide “a deliverable” that was “specific investigations.”

Vindman later told Ukrainian officials they should steer clear of the requests.

WTF???

WOW! Is Vindman completely insane?

A couple of days ago I accused Vindman of having Delusions of Adequacy... This goes beyond even Delusions of Grandeur.

Despite his toadying to the previous corrupt President Porsohenko I can’t imagine that a Nation would try to recruit a pudgy American Lieutenant Colonel desk jockey to be Defense Minister, even though he was Ukraine borne and had been working as a Double Agent for them while in the U.S. Military and WhiteHouse.

Everybody in the chain-of-command with the slightest involvement in the decision to protect this POS should be reduced in rank and stationed somewhere in Somalia...
