'Sit Down and Shut Up': Alexander Vindman Fires Back at Ohio Republican Over Afghan (yes that Vindman)
Newsweek via msn ^ | 04 September 2021 | Christina Zhao

Retired Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman traded jabs with Ohio Republican Josh Mandel on Saturday over President Joe Biden's plans to resettle tens of thousands of Afghanistan refugees in the U.S. following the troop withdrawal....

...Mandel, a former Ohio state Treasurer and Marine veteran running for the U.S. Senate in 2022, called Vindman a "liar and traitor" on social media after Vindman's wife, Rachel Vindman, criticized his opposition to the resettlement of Afghan refugees.

"You are a fool looking for attention," Alexander Vindman tweeted in response. "You don't represent Jewish values. You preach hate for refugees, when your own ancestors came here as immigrants and refugees. Sit down and shut up. #RefugeesWelcone....

Biden people.
Another anti-Semite, shocker.

These people call everyone else fascists, but the smell and brown stuff seems to be from them. Jesus says not to hate. There is something so revolting about these people, like Vindman, that I struggle with God’s plan. I feel I am genetically pre-programmed to reject Fascists.

Ohio is awake not woke. The swamp creatures know they are totally F’ed here in Ohio. Senator Brown only got elected because of the Russia lie. He will be removed in 2024. Portman is retiring because he knew he was going to be primaried, and yes Mandel is going to take his seat. Governor DeWine aka Alfred E. Neuman will be primaried too. How can anyone vote for a person that thinks Covid can tell time. According to that authoritarian DeWine, 10:00pm is when Covid starts its attack and business must close. The reason we don’t have mask mandates and lockdowns in Ohio is because the legislators stripped DeWine’s power. The citizens have had enough. We will not forget any time soon.

Yes, Dale City. The new house we bought in ‘75 was 4 Bdr 2.5Bath split level. In 2011 someone built onto the house with a second story on the single level side and out the back and side. They added 5 Bdr and 1 Bath for a total of 9 Bdr, 3.5 baths.
I was shocked that the local admin. would permit such a project in a residential neighborhood. I might add that the local school is now 63% Hispanic.

Ah.

So the "Ukrainian" NeverTrumper Vindman turns out to be an expert in "Jewish values"?

I had no idea.

Oh, now he’s playing the J-card?

He should have been not just fired, but deported.

Palm says he is a bully and he cheats on his wife. However, his sense of self-importance is nearing an end.

Moved to PWC just outside Manassas in 1988 because my dad had to move there for his (private sector, blue collar) job.

PWC wasn’t that good back then.

It’s downright awful now.

In retrospect, moving to PWC for anything other than a guaranteed-for-life Federal job is a terrible idea.

A LTC is a field grade officer.

In fatass vindman’s case it’s an undeserved rank.... Hell if he didn’t have the Foreign Area Officer (FAO) designation to protect him, he would have been kicked out of the military during Ranger School.

While he was at Ranger School, he was caught stealing rations from enlisted soldiers. He failed his peer review. And
in everything else the cadre practically dragged him across the finish line.

He allegedly held a company command, yet lacks a Bronze Star. His Purple Heart is from his vehicle being hit by an IED in Iraq, but vindman returned to duty within a few hours.
