Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) has drawn fire from across the anti-Donald Trump political spectrum the past few days as she has publicly challenged the fake establishment built around key impeachment figure and Democrat witness Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman.
Vindman infamously testified in his full military uniform–despite the fact he does not wear it to work at the National Security Council (NSC)–before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) during the House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry stage last year helping build their case to pass articles of Impeachment before Christmas. The “impeachment managers,” the top Democrats that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has appointed to argue the Democrats’ partisan case for removing President Trump from office before the U.S. Senate, have repeatedly invoked Vindman’s testimony over the course of this week, where Democrats have finally finished their opening arguments after three long days of that and a previous late night on Tuesday in the Senate where they used a series of meaningless amendments to buy more time to press their case on the Senate floor.
But it is a series of tweets from Blackburn that have infuriated the president’s enemies, Never Trumpers and Democrats alike, where the freshman U.S. senator and conservative firebrand from Tennessee–a strong ally of the president–has called for the truth to finally come out about Vindman and others’ role in orchestrating this entire impeachment charade from the beginning.
Everything Blackburn has said about Vindman is factually accurate.
On Thursday, Blackburn began a tweet thread–one of many she’s done this week exposing the left on this impeachment case–by questioning the image that the establishment media and Democrats have painted of Vindman being patriotic:
Adam Schiff is hailing Alexander Vindman as an American patriot.

I think Vindman has overreached and will be undone in the end. He is not as smart or as valuable as he thinks he is.
Flounder will get whats coming to him...
“I think Vindman has overreached and will be undone in the end. He is not as smart or as valuable as he thinks he is.”
He has the knowledge to destroy Shiff.
This is interesting. I presume he is not lying

Dear Sen Blackburn.
I was LTC Vindman’s boss in Moscow betw 2012-14. LTC Hickman was not. Shall I visit you to privately discuss his loyalty & reliability w/ you. Pls take these unfounded, corrosive accusations out of the public domain. They’re wrong & hurtful
He had smirk that rates right under the one done by Strozk..never can remember how to spell his name..not sure anyone will ever outdo his smirk shimmy.
Vindman and Ciaramella were both neck deep in the Biden-Ukraine scandal, which is why they “blew the whistle.” They panicked and drew attention to themselves.
It’s obvious his loyalty is questionable if he is trying to thwart the foreign policy of the President.
And Schiff has Ukraine ties (arms dealers).
not really the point...
Am wondering the difference between hickman and this guy. One is ranked higher than the other. Not sure if Hickman is lying or what is going on.
In the mil, you have lots of bosses.
True, but he is claiming Hickman was not Vindman’s boss.
Blackburn was relying on Hickman.
There is some kind of story here. Not sure what it is
“I was LTC Vindman’s boss in Moscow betw 2012-14.”
If he was in Moscow in 2012, guess who put him there.
She is a great Senator.
100%
It had nothing to do with Hickman being Vindman’s CO. It was based Hickman’s observations of him when he served with him.
HOORAY Marsha! Beware the military-industrial, political-criminal COMPLEX.
You are missing the point. Blackburn is stating Hickman was Vindman’s commanding CO. The guy I posted said that isn’t true.
This isn’t about whether or not Vindman is an arrogrant prick.
This is about Blackburn stating one thing, relying on it, and someone else claiming it isn’t true.
