Opinions are like a-holes. Everybody has one.

I'm not sure, but I believe that this Lt. Colonel has broken a law or at the very least the UCMJ........................

Copy of the transcript.

LT Col Clown boy, the Democrat “star witness” this week admitted in his testimony the transcript is complete and accurate.His boss just testified today there is nothing at all illegal or improper in the call.

In any sane world this kills the Democrat Fascist clown show in the US House dead. But the DC Swamp, and their mindless toadies in the Fake News, don’t live in a sane world anymore.

It now turns out this “impeachment” scam is all about the DC Swamp criminals trying to divert attention off the AG current criminal investigation. The “whistle blower” is one of the prime agents in the original “Russian collusion” fraud.
No wonder they were all panicked by the Ukrainian call, they knew the noose was being slipped over their heads.

“I’m not sure, but I believe that this Lt. Colonel has broken a law or at the very least the UCMJ........................ “

Notice when he was brought out to the public it was after the transcripts were released. The entire thing was staged after that point. Its a war of perception and the laws seem to be ignored at every level let alone the ethics of it all.

He explicitly stated that the transcript was accurate.

And there is nothing in the transcript. This is all so pointless. This is OrangeManBad and nothing but.

One of Vindman’s superior officers has a pretty dim view of the guy. Compelling, specific commentary on his Twitter feed:

At minimum...

Article 134. General article:

LTC (R) Jim Hickman

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!

Alex Vindman is protecting a extra-legal operation that the CIA and state department are running in Ukraine. Money, spys, and information run through the country that allows America full reign in exchange for American pay offs. Sometimes that payoff are weapons (that they sell). And sometimes its dollars. Its like Ukraine is the new Casablanca. A no-mans land for spies to do whatever they want. Thank you CIA, Thank you Obama.

The fact that he elected to testify in uniform, thus attempting to add the imprimatur of the U.S. military...

Which is why even if he faced UCMJ proceedings he would be acquitted. A court martial board would have mostly left leaning officers sitting on it. The officer corps today isn't what it was in my army or your dad's army...they're mostly globalist and leftist in the field grade and flag officer levels.

Is there anything preventing the President from recalling old-timer/Cold War-era officers back to duty to conduct court martial proceedings against these modern-day Quislings?

Whoa whoa. All this hatred of Lt. Col. Whathisface is totally interfering with Chris Wallace’s impeachment “facts.”

There is an opening in NYC in a secure site that has updated security cameras.

Check-out the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan.

The circus is a circus and it’s about time the GOP treated it as such.
