House Democrats are trotting out their star witness for Tuesday’s impeachment show, Lt.-Col. Alexander Vindman. He listened in on the July 25 phone call between President Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodomyr Zelensky, that is central to the Democrats’ case. They allege that Trump demanded Zelensky dig up dirt on the Bidens in exchange for military aid.
At first glance, Vindman looks like the ideal witness, wearing US Army dress blues with medals. The media portray him as a hero reluctantly stepping forward to disclose presidential misconduct. But Vindman will wither under cross-examination, as he did during closed-door testimony on Oct. 29. You haven’t heard that because the media are misleading you.
Vindman’s job at the National Security Council is to write policy memos, schedule meetings and keep minutes of conversations with foreign diplomats. That’s why he was on the July 25 call.

You are probably right cause I don’t think the doughboy can pass the PFT.
“There they can subpoena everybody and their brother. That would include Nazi, Shifty, the Biden crime family, any and all claimed whistleblowers.”
Who would all claim 5th Amendment privilege to every question. This needs to go no further.
If a congressional committee chairman lies during the hearing, is he guilty of lying to congress?
Just opinions about what they allegedly overheard and opinions as to what they would have done.
I think that`s the point that I’m trying to make. The morons want a clown show - so, give them one. Let Nazi, et al sit the there blinking at the cameras. It’s the independents minds that we want to make sure vote for Trump in 2020.
Most of the Dims are a lost cause anyway. Think of the spectacle it will make haveing Bug-eye and the Botox queen all owl-eyed in front of the cameras.
Having read the transcript from the closed door hearing where GOP rep Ratcliffe took him apart I can’t believe they are bringing Vindman public. He should be in the brig waiting for his article 92 court martial.
Hopefully McConnell has dirt on him. Also I think Mitt is in the middle of the Ukrainian thing.
