quote:So, he is a career military technocrat with expertise in Russia, Ukraine and Eastern Europe. He is on temporary assignment to the NSA.
(Vindman) was born in Ukraine in the mid-1970s, when it was part of the Soviet Union .... Their mother died when they were young, and the father brought the twins and an older brother to New York when Vindman was 3. They settled in Brighton Beach, which is also called Little Odessa because of all the Russian and Ukrainian immigrants, many of them Jewish, like the Vindmans.
After college, he joins the military. He is sent to Iraq at a time of heavy fighting, and he's wounded in a roadside bomb and receives a Purple Heart for this. He speaks Russian and Ukrainian. He's served at U.S. embassies in Ukraine and Russia. He has a master's degree from Harvard and became a Russian-East European expert at the Pentagon. ..
So last year, he's asked to serve on the National Security Council - very common for military, State Department, CIA people to go there on a temporary assignment.
And you people call him “Deep State.”. Serve your country and gain some expertise. By that definition, the entire officer corps is “Deep State.” Good Lord, you people are literally insane.

The omissions, Colonel Vindman said, included Mr. Trump’s assertion that there were recordings of former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. discussing Ukraine corruption, and an explicit mention by Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, of Burisma Holdings, the energy company whose board employed Mr. Biden’s son Hunter.
Neither of these "headlining" omissions are material to proving Trump was pressuring the Ukraine leadership or holding up aid, or anything else the Dims are claiming.
Was this dude in the room even?

I watched the video montage on Ingraham of the parroted MSM glorifying this man in uniform like he is their savior.
I can't believe we are witnessing someone whose job it is to stfu and not leak and not enact policy or politics; be a hero to try to take down a duly elected President.
It does not matter what this man's opinion is.
The dems are pissed there are recordings of Biden's quid pro quo from his mouth! The nerve of the dems and media to twist this on Trump is astounding to watch.

Mentioning something everyone already knows isn't impeachable last I checked.
You see the point is that the transcription that Trump said was word-for-word left some verbiage out.
How did that happen? Why was it left out?

The Bidens were corrupt. Trump wanted the corruption stopped. That's the story. And that is the Dems case here? What the actual hell!
The White House is trying to spin this as if Trump's main purpose in the call was for Ukraine to generally step up its fight against corruption.
Now, with the added verbiage, it becomes clear that the purpose of the call was to get an investigation started against Biden.
A call made for the personal political gain of Trump.

those damn ellipses
Close your eyes and imagine what the responses on here would be if that was an Obama phone call with ellipses in the "word-for-word" transcript.
There would be 20 pages of name calling, innuendo, and birth certificate references.
You baws on here are a chuckle a minute.

So there isn’t any corruption in the Biden family?

What did Vindman say that was such a bombshell? I am honestly not seeing it.
