When you try to kill the king, don’t miss.

Or as a mentor once told me “When you blow the whistle, expect your career is over”.

Are those Rick Perry and Gordon Sondland next to Zelensky?

‘Vindman was on detail to the National Security Council from the Department of Defense, and it is expected he will return there.” Return where? To the NSC or DOD? The sentence is not structured correctly.

I think he needs to be sent to Afghanistan. Give him a nice job driving the lead convoy vehicles everywhere.

Pleeeez....We would have had a picture by now. AND he would have been in ordinary clothes. He wore suits for that temporary job...and was to return to the Defense Department when this “learning experience” was over.

I could say something like he should have been carried out of the White House in a Body Bag, but I would never say anything like that.

I hope Vindman’s armed? escorts barged in on him before he could turn off his computer. Grab that sucker and start de-crypting his files. I hope his gov’t issued phone was taken too.

Where will this little worm resurface? Hopefully at one of our Aleutian island defense installations, is where the DoD posts him.

So, he’s lost all benefits and retirement?

Vindman needs a courts-martial for several UCMJ violations such as lying under oath, disrespect to the President, actions unbecoming of an officer and a gentleman and other violations due to his actual insubordination and conspiracy.

Just in case some democrat says how dare I attack a military hero, I am a 22 year retired US Air Force airman.

This is absolutely true. Documented cases of being relieved of duty or command for dereliction of duty, for example.

A nuclear missile submarine’s commander was relieved of command for being late to a mid ocean rendezvous point S. of Iceland. This was an SSBN, ballistic missiles w/ nuclear warheads. Ship had a critically injured/ill crewman who could not be treated by the physician on board. The chopper flew all the way out (just enough fuel to get back) and then had to wait (while the Soviets watched, listened and wondered). So the captain gave away the location by being late. Result:
Relieved of command and also from service in the US Navy.

Vindman no way as serious as this, but in a different way, just as important as to chain of command and compromising national security in so doing.

Why does a LTC need to have an attorney .... who is paying? Connected high priced mouth pieces don’t gravitate towards LTCs without payment and approval.
