The coordination with major media is breathtaking

Can’t be emphasized enough, some of them have been working hand in hand with the coup plotters since the onset.

Re. Vindman conversation with Deputy Chief of Mission for Ukraine Oksana Shulyar

https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/news-releases/tbt-dnc-consultant-reportedly-sought-dirt-trump-ukrainian-government

July 20, 2017

VIA ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION
The Honorable Rod J. Rosenstein
Deputy Attorney General
U.S. Department of Justice
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20530

Dear Mr. Rosenstein,

According to news reports, during the 2016 presidential election, “Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump” and did so by “disseminat[ing] documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter…”[1] Ukrainian officials also reportedly “helped Clinton’s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers.”[2] At the center of this plan was Alexandra Chalupa, described by reports as a Ukrainian-American operative “who was consulting for the Democratic National Committee” and reportedly met with Ukrainian officials during the presidential election for the express purpose of exposing alleged ties between then-candidate Donald Trump, Paul Manafort, and Russia.[3] Politico also reported on a Financial Times story that quoted a Ukrainian legislator, Serhiy Leschenko, saying that Trump’s candidacy caused “Kiev’s wider political leadership to do something they would never have attempted before: intervene, however indirectly, in a U.S. election.”[4]

Reporting indicates that the Democratic National Committee encouraged Chalupa to interface with Ukrainian embassy staff to “arrange an interview in which Poroshenko [the president of Ukraine] might discuss Manafort’s ties to Yanukovych.”[5] Chalupa also met with Valeriy Chaly, Ukraine’s ambassador to the U.S., and Oksana Shulyar, a top aid to the Ukrainian ambassador in March 2016 and shared her alleged concerns about Manafort. Reports state that the purpose of their initial meeting was to “organize a June reception at the embassy to promote Ukraine.” However, another Ukrainian embassy official, Andrii Telizhenko, told Politico that Shulyar instructed him to assist Chalupa with research to connect Trump, Manafort, and the Russians. He reportedly said, “[t]hey were coordinating an investigation with the Hillary team on Paul Manafort with Alexandra Chalupa” and that “Oksana [Shulyar] was keeping it all quiet…the embassy worked very closely with” Chalupa.[6]

Chalupa’s actions appear to show that she was simultaneously working on behalf of a foreign government, Ukraine, and on behalf of the DNC and Clinton campaign, in an effort to influence not only the U.S voting population but U.S. government officials. Indeed, Telizhenko recalled that Chalupa told him and Shulyar, “[i]f we can get enough information on Paul [Manafort] or Trump’s involvement with Russia, she can get a hearing in Congress by September.”[7] Later, Chalupa did reportedly meet with staff in the office of Democratic representative Marcy Kaptur to discuss a congressional investigation. Such a public investigation would not only benefit the Hillary Clinton campaign, but it would benefit the Ukrainian government, which, at the time, was working against the Trump campaign. When Politico attempted to ask Rep. Kaptur’s office about the meeting, the office called it a “touchy subject.”

Sincerely,

Charles E. Grassley
Chairman
Senate Committee on the Judiciary

“Trump has only himself to blame.”

I agree. I cannot grasp with my brain why he didn’t clean house when he took office. You cannot contribute to a successful country with a staff that is beholden to someone else.

This testimony was under oath. You are spot on. This guy should be arrested immediately. Also anyone assisting him(lawyers). Dems act like committing crimes are okay because there is no resistance from GOP. Enough with drawing this out. start making arrests and save the public time and money. Don’t forget this was all done on our dime. The coverup is being done on our dime. Needs to stop now!

“This is far worse than most realize.”

Agreed. Also - we wouldn’t be hearing a PEEP out of any of them if ‘She Who Shall Not Be Named’ was our president.

God Bless and PROTECT President Trump, his family and the few allies he has in the BATTLE for our Republic!

We’ve got your back, Mr. President! 2020 Landslide! MAGA! KAG!

I believe that Sundance is correct in that this guy just admitted to Article 92 and Article 88 violations.

I’m not a JAG but I suspect Vindman does not have any protections under the “whistle blower” act. The UCMJ system is entirely separate from civilian law (and intentionally so).

Article 92—Failure To Obey Order Or Regulation. Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice is “Failure to Obey an Order or Regulation” (Written or stated). It is considered a dereliction of duty when unable or unwilling to perform the job assigned to military personnel.

UCMJ Article 88: Contempt Toward Officials. A commissioned officer of the United States Armed Forces who uses contemptuous words against officials of any branch of the U.S. government or any State government will be punished as a court-martial may direct under Article 88 of the UCMJ: Contempt toward Officials.

With respects

'It’s been a running misinformation war ever since and a paper coup'

Paper coup, I will disagree with you on that single point, the only thing missing is tanks in the street and the military going house to house, (police remain to be seen as agents of good or ill) but make no mistake this is a real world coup.

People need to be sent to GITMO for tribunals and if found guilty need to swing from lamp posts.

And folks that got their positions with foreign money need to spend the rest of their lives regretting turning on America.

And a large number of Obamaphiles were purged by Joe Dunford before Trump even came on the scene as I observed it from my profession during Obama’s last years.

An "0bamaphile" is an 0bama lover. Did Dunford root out 0bama-lovers from the Corps, and get rid of them?  thinking face
