Responding to Lt. Col. Vindman about my Ukraine columns … with the facts
www.johnsolomonreports.com ^ | 11/22/19 | John Solomon

Posted on 11/23/2019 8:15:54 AM PST by spacejunkie2001

honor and applaud Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman’s service to his country. He’s a hero. I also respect his decision to testify at the impeachment proceedings. I suspect neither his service nor his testimony was easy.

But I also know the liberties that Lt. Col. Vindman fought on the battlefield to preserve permit for a free and honest debate in America, one that can’t be muted by the color of uniform or the crushing power of the state.

So I want to exercise my right to debate Lt. Col. Vindman about the testimony he gave about me. You see, under oath to Congress, he asserted all the factual elements in my columns at The Hill about Ukraine were false, except maybe my grammar

Here are his exact words:

“I think all the key elements were false,” Vindman testified.

Rep. Lee Zeldin, R-N.Y, pressed him about what he meant. “Just so I understand what you mean when you say key elements, are you referring to everything John Solomon stated or just some of it?”

“All the elements that I just laid out for you. The criticisms of corruption were false…. Were there more items in there, frankly, congressman? I don’t recall. I haven’t looked at the article in quite some time, but you know, his grammar might have been right.”

This is the great kind of article that Solomon is known for. And its the reason you can trust him and only him. This is what journalism used to be. Vindman is not Vindmens name its Александр Семёнович Виндман. He was born in Ukraine. ANd his purple heart came when he was not in combat. He was close to a car that was attacked. He was not in uniform at the time. He is a spook. As with many of the witnesses in the impeachment hearings. Vindman was not born here. And he is a spy. And he is mad that Trump is interfering with their bribe money. Billions go to these countries and we lose track of the money. But the spies use the money for payoffs. Go Trump, stop this practice.

re. I can’t believe there are no Army people here who could recognize his awards.

I'm sure there are many that recognize the awards. They just don't know what he supposedly did to earn them.

I am glad to hear that the article ended on a good note. However, Vindman is the furthest thing from a Hero.
