re: Vindman to be Removed from WH NSC

Even Nikki Haley would agree he should be removed in cuffs. He wasn't there for the President to serve him, but he was there to serve the President; and not leak or change to suite his or Schiff's political purposes- classified information.
Look at the CNN bombshell from Oct. 30th. This is insane. You have to skip to the 8th paragraph to see this is no bombshell. This guy probably leaked. I just saw where he was removed since Aug from the NSC. For him to be 'removed' it is real bad.

(CNN) - The National Security Council's top Ukraine expert told House impeachment investigators on Tuesday that he tried to make changes to the White House's rough transcript of the July phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukraine's President, including that Trump mentioned tapes of former Vice President Joe Biden, according to a source familiar with the matter.
Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman testified that one example of his attempts to change the transcript was to include Trump telling Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky there were tapes of Biden, which The New York Times reported occurred where there's an ellipsis in the transcript that was released. The change was not made. The assertion that some portion of the conversation was replaced by an ellipsis contradicts the White House's statement in September that the ellipses in the transcript did not represent missing words or phrases. It also contradicts the President who has insisted the transcript the White House released was an exact depiction of the call, even though the memo itself describes it as rough.
Vindman also said that he would have edited the transcript to specifically show that Zelensky mentioned Burisma -- the company that hired Hunter Biden -- rather than just "the company," according to sources.
"He or she will look into the situation, specifically to the company that you mentioned in this issue," the rough transcript cites Zelensky as saying.
Vindman's testimony that some specific details were left out of the rough transcript adds further insight about how the White House handled the call and Democrats' concerns that the Trump administration engaged in a coverup.
White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham challenged Vindman's testimony in a statement Wednesday, claiming that Trump "released a full and accurate transcript of his call" with Zelensky.
"The media is reporting that Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman claims he proposed filling in words that were missing in areas where ellipses were shown in the transcript -- this is false," she said.
Sources from both parties told CNN that the changes were not seen as significant. In his testimony, which came during yet another explosive deposition on Capitol Hill, Vindman testified that the White House's rough transcript was mostly accurate in describing the contents of the July 25 phone call between Trump and Zelensky aside from the edits he wanted to make.

I hear our Arctic Listening Post is really "picturesque" this time of year. Should we send him some TD wool socks?
