breitbart ^ | 11/19/2019 | spiering

Posted on 11/19/2019 12:59:12 PM PST by RummyChick

Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman admitted he made up elements of President Donald Trump’s call with Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelensky in an official summary. Prior to the call, Vindman included a discussion about corruption in the talking points provided to the president but Trump did not use them in the call.

The summary Vindman wrote after the call read:

President Trump underscored the unwavering support of the United States for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity – within its internationally recognized borders – and expressed his commitment to work together with President-elect Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people to implement reforms that strengthen democracy, increase prosperity, and root out corruption.

I never understood how any of these field-grade pompous a-holes ever make it to their paygrade, let alone aide or Pentagon staff, let alone White House privilege (and it IS a privilege). Purple Heart or not, this guy makes me sick and reminds me of the worst of the higher-ups I met while in the service.

Vindman did not know it was Trump who aided Ukraine with missiles? He thinks he’s an expert ?

Can you imagine this guy at the tip of the spear as 10000 Russian tanks assaulted the Fulda Gap?

One thing is for sure, this guy had some political mojo behind his rise because he is exposing himself as a feckless, incompetent moron. Dude does not know Trump supplied Ukraine with the anti tank missiles that Obama refused to provide so Ukraine could defend themselves

Tim Morrison just testified that Vindman was not included on a Presidential trip to the Ukraine and got his feelings hurt. Morrison, Vindman's boss, had to explain who was going, who was not and why.

What a whiny little girl this Vindman is.

Except that Trump as POTUS is the Commander in Chief, so Vindman should be able to understand that his orders actually come from President Trump. To me, Vindman is due for a charge of insubordination.

"His present position is not a military position...And he has no business wearing that uniform."

I don't know that I agree with that. Many years ago an Army colleague of mine was assigned to the U.S. Embassy in London. He was not permitted to wear his uniform and drew a clothing allowance. However, if he had ever been called to account for his actions on duty he would most certainly appear in uniform.

Was he drawing military pay? Did he have a commanding officer? Was he subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice? I don't know what his status was.

"As to his purple heart..."

I should have been more clear. I meant on the officer's right side there are devices I don't recognize. They look like service ribbons but appear next to the unit citations. That is, on the left side relative to an observer.

I think I understand what you’re saying. I sometimes wonder if we conservatives are not the ones living in a bubble here on Free Republic. I seriously doubt if the majority of Americans are getting anything other than the spoon-fed crap of treason.

Don’t watch this garbage. Talking French to Gomez makes his blood boil. Listening to these bloviating windbags curdles mine.

You know why? Rush has been saying for years while laughing “Folks, you can’t make this up.”

So now Schiff and then Vindman took him up on it.

The hearings as printed US Government Documents will be split into fiction and nonfiction for these hearings.

PDJT should tweet, “who does Vindman report to?”, just like he does with, “where is the whistle blower?”

So he lied... that should discredit him as a credible witness.

Impeachment is more DOA today than it was last week.

“I heard Nunes on the radio today where he called him “Mr. Vindman” and Vindman said “It’s LT. COL. VINDMAN!””

Nunes should have immediately shot back: “Well excuuuse me, LTC Poppin Fresh!”

This who have Democrats have to remove the POTUS of office... a witness who admitted on cross he made it all up about the phone call.

Seriously? The defense doesn’t need to call any witnesses. Democrats’ chief witness just torpedoed their impeachment ship!

In other words, after two weeks, Democrats still can’t find anyone who spoke to Trump before, during and after the July 25th phone call!

They have NO case.
