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.

Amen!
It’s the Trump Effect - some on our side actually fight back....effectively - by going on the attack instead of defense.
Somebody needs to look up the definitions of “libel” and “slander”.
They are really, really desperate if they’re pulling out this foolishness.
Dems are a half a notch from poo flinging like a bunch of chimpanzees.
Senator Blackburn reading a book during Romper Room was awesome. I just wish it was Cosmo or a romance novel.
Is there enough popcorn left?
This punk Vindman has NO award higher then a PH. What a puke for a so called Infantry Officer. Not even a BSM service.
After reading that thread, it’s not clear to me who was Vindman’s ‘boss’.
Vindman is TRASH. His Ranger school classmates wanted him thrown out for stealing MRE’s. He is no officer, an Obama appointee like the females Obozzo pushed on the FT Benning Infantry School CG to graduate from Ranger School.
I took over a company in Vietnam in 68 from a 1LT, a prior Ranger School SFC NCO, who was NCOIC of the mountain ranger phase in Dahlonaga, GA. That man helped this young officer more then anyone. NCO’s taught me so much.

The author, Jim Hickman was Vindman’s boss.
Read the thread in post 13. It’s clearer there. That’s the first one Jim wrote about it.
He was not his Commanding Officer, though.
How could he formally reprimand Vindman if he wasn’t his boss?
I see that now.
