Blackburn Doubles Down on Vindman Comments After His Attorney Blasts Her For 'Defamatory Tweets'

Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn doubled down on accusation she lobbed against Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman Thursday, alleging he's the whistleblower’s handler who leaked the July 25 call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky—despite his attorney accusing her of “slander” and “defamatory tweets.”

“Adam Schiff is hailing Alexander Vindman as an American patriot. How patriotic is it to badmouth and ridicule our great nation in front of Russia, America’s greatest enemy?” her Twitter account posted in response.

“Alexander Vindman broke the chain of command and leaked the contents of the President’s July 25th phone call to his pal, the “whistleblower.” Over a policy dispute with the President!” she followed up. “How is that not vindictive?”

She then provided three similarities between Vindman and the “whistleblower”: they both worked under President Obama, had an interest in taking out President Trump, and held the same position within the National Security Council.

At a minimum conducting political activities while in uniform is conduct unbecoming. It defiles the uniform and the reputation and tradition of the US military service.

Windman has his lawyers call a woman a coward.

He’s really brave.

Hey, Vindman! Don’t bother picking up any eagles at the PX. You won’t be needing them.

Don’t forget the SOVIET BORN Vindman said that President Trump DEMANDED that President Zolensky help him with the investigation. Vindman is a filthy lying piece of Soviet trash! He should have received a court martial for his testimony against the President.

“””””” David Pressman, a lawyer with Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP””””””””””””””””

So this civil servant vindman can afford to hire one of the most expensive law firms in the country to defend him from someone who hurt his feelings?

Something ain’t right, Jim.

At a minimum, showing up in uniform looking like a fat dork is also conduct unbecoming.

accusing her of “slander” and “defamatory tweets.”

The way you deal with that is a lawsuit, depositions, discovery. If they are telling the truth they will do so.
