Byron York, a Washington Examiner columnist spoke to Laura Ingraham on Wednesday about how the investigators came to realize that the person driving the events of ‘Ukraine Investigation’ wasn’t the so-called whistleblower, but none other than Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman.
In his new book, “Obsession: Inside the Washington Establishment’s Never-Ending War on Trump“, Byron York reveals the details behind the House and Senate hearings on the Ukraine investigation.
“If you remember early on in the Ukraine Investigation, the Democrats said they wanted the whistleblower to testify and then they changed their mind and they didn’t want the whistleblower to testify,” said Byron.
“And they [Democrats] began to shut off any Republican attempts to find out who the whistleblower was. So the question is, if the whistleblower wasn’t in the White House, how did he learn what was going on?” continued Byron York.
“And Lieutenant Colonel Vindman was one of several people who had listened to the Trump-Zelensky phone call. But he was the only one who was disturbed by what took place. He was the only one who thought there was a problem there. So when he was interviewed by the House, remember, in those secret sessions that the Intelligence Committee. They said, well, who outside the White House did you tell about this phone call? And he said, I told two people, said, well, who are they? One of them was George Kent, who was a State Department official and who was specialized in Ukraine. Who was the other one? Well, he was in the intelligence community. And at that point, Rep. Adam Schiff and other Democrats interrupted. You cannot say, you cannot ask the other person he spoke to. And Republicans said, well, why? Why can’t we ask about that? And they said because it would tend to identify the whistleblower. So it didn’t take a real rocket scientist to figure out that the source of this, the original source of this was Lieutenant Colonel Vindman.”
Uhm....Ex Colonel now. Onward and upward.
BTTT
Nope. He retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. While selected for promotion to Colonel, he retired before he was promoted.
looks like a “bun” licker.
Frank Burns eats worms.
I thought think jerk was NOT listening in on the call.
What a shock! /snark
REALLY Byron we already knew this, where have you been under a rock somewhere???
This ASSHAT is the epitome of Frank Burns, bet all of his colleagues feel the same way about him too!!
For some reason he looks to me like “Mama’s” boy!
Shows you what kind of shit officers were pushed up the ranks during the commie Obama years: Vindman, Mathis, Kelly, etc. During the Obama years scum definitely floated to the top.
Looks like bizzaro George Castanza...Gene.
That theory would explain a lot.
Bookmark.
Eric Ciaramella acted as the untouchable source of the fake information because of his "whistle blower" status. He couldn't even be named or questioned. This should be the basis of a treason indictment for both of them.
STRIP HIM of his MEDALS and then HANG HIM! COUP PLOTTER!
WTH IS CIARAMELLA NOW??? Still in the Government?
