That filthy too fat of a frick to wear the Uniform is still there? He's toast anyway. I GUARANTEE you he will get a below center of mass OER (Officer Efficiency Report/ Performance evaluation for those of you not familiar), will never see another promotion and should feel lucky to just retire. He is a fricking disgrace.

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.

quote:

(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.

This. Totally agree. For a Commissioned Field Grade Officer it's a mortal sin to plot against your Commander in Chief.

That would most definitely be a blatant violation of separation of powers. But since when did those kind of things matter. It might be a different battle if firing Vindman was the proposed action. But it isn't....instead, just reassignment.

If trust between the commander and his subordinates is required for efficient discharge of the duties involving the commander and his subordinates who carry out those duties, then it's unavoidable that Vindman be removed from that particular operation. It totally anti-productive to have him in the loop.

What he looks like when Schiff doesn't tell him to dress in uniform.



I would bet the farm Schiff for brains screams obstruction because he was removed. Just like they screamed obstruction because calls were put on a different server after Susan Rice said Obama did it.

And the fricking President can do this especially after a bunch of rats connected to Brennan have been leaking classified information.

This is all getting real fricking old; Brennan needs cuffed and this asswipe bureaucrat hiding in a uniform needs a court-martial. This never ends unless people are jailed.

I hadn't read your reply before I posted to you. I was so pissed I just clicked first reply and was glad it was you.

I agree with you but you know Sshit for brains will scream obstruction.

AND DISCLAIMER TO ALL. Vindman's pic is DC security when he was escorted to the SCIF.

So what was the difference between the activities occurring the day of top pic versus bottom pic?

Nothing has been before the public yet, likely no "audience" as we see in televised hearings. I envision very few individuals seated behind the witness, those being his lawyer(s) and the like.

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

The bottom pic was from WaPo. When he bashed Solomon.

I presume it was another testimony? Didn't he change his testimony and come back in uniform?
