Alexander Vindman on Saturday tweeted that he's certain he "did (his) duty" as a key witness in President Donald Trump's impeachment inquiry.
"One year since The Call. Much has changed for me and so much more has changed for our country. I rest well knowing I did my duty," Vindman, former top Ukraine expert at the National Security Council, wrote.
Groundwork for the impeachment began when Democrats announced an impeachment inquiry following an anonymous whistleblower complaint alleging Trump sought election help from Ukrainian President Zelensky in a phone call. The Senate ultimately voted to acquit Trump on two articles of impeachment.
Lt. Col. Vindman retired from the US Army earlier this month, after more than 21 years of military service because he determined that his future in the armed forces "will forever be limited" due to political retaliation by the President and his allies, his lawyer told CNN.
Vindman has endured a "campaign of bullying, intimidation, and retaliation" spearheaded by the President following his testimony in the impeachment inquiry last year, according to his attorney, David Pressman.
Trump fired Vindman as the top Ukraine expert on the NSC in February.
Vindman delivered explosive testimony during public impeachment hearings that Trump's push for Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden was "inappropriate" and that he knew "without hesitation" that he had to report it.
Vindman said that he reported his concerns out of a "sense of duty," and he defended his fellow witnesses from what he described as "reprehensible" attacks.

But Vindman remained a focal point of Trump's ire, facing a wave of unfounded attacks from the President and his allies during the trial portion.

He did his duty for the Democrat party to which he owes his allegiance. Sad that he didnt get a court martial for being a freaking traitor.
I think President Trump ended up in the driver’s seat. In order to keep the impeachment going they had to make it about Biden and they had to nominate Biden for the sake of the political opposition narrative.
To Vindman: Shut up you effin’ Traitor!
Take your pension, take a few months off, and go to work for a contractor like everyone else.
Doughwoman was not on the call. He had no first hand knowledge of what transpired
That’s the guy I want under me, someone who will stick a knife in my back?
Perfect for advancement. ..lol
He admitted he’s a traitor. He should be shot, or in the least, behind bars.
Bassturd little traitor is lucky he did not get court martialed
Alexander Vindman is a chow thief.
And you’re still an A-hole.
