Vindman gets fired and SEAL Gallagher gets White House invitation.
Go figure...
Go figure...
No surprise but wonder if he has recourse under whistle blower laws.
From earlier today -
"President Trump retweeted a statement from Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) calling for the firing of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman on Friday as part of a larger tweetstorm against the National Security Council's top Ukraine expert."

There's the presidential mushroom slurping that is expected! If you can't do that, expect the consequences. Honor and oaths be damned.
You haven't addressed that he is not an elected official and did a crappy job in Ukraine.
Don't call him Vindman, he's Lieutenant Colonel Vindman.
Didn’t know they had tenure. If he’s that solid should find a gig in private sector like the rest of us.A combat veteran, who was wounded in Iraq, and Trump had him perp walked out the door.
I know the stupid f**** will jump into this thread, one already has, but I'm fascinated to see the rationalizations and justifications from LC and the supposedly rational thinking Republicans of HROT.
lol, yeah he should have had Giuliani arrested. That would have solved a lot of the Ukraine problems. Of course, his job wasn't to police the Ukraine, it was primarily foreign military sales and arms control.You haven't addressed that he is not an elected official and did a crappy job in Ukraine.
Don't call him Vindman, he's Lieutenant Colonel Vindman.
I simply answered the question. Sorry the answer hurts your feelingsAh, another chimes in to pay his allegiance.
"We're big supporters of the military. Well, we like to dress up and play pretend. Live their code of honor, screw that shit. Let them hang out to dry if Trump throws a tantrum, that's what they signed up for!"
FIFYI don't know how professional positions in the NSC are staffed, how rotations work, how career military officers with specialized expertise move up the ranks. I work the drive through at a McDonalds.
The man has no chin
Zero principles.Hey look, we're at 100% - I guess the senate does really represent the people. Republicans are spineless as a whole.
Yup, Trump proved Vindman's dad right . The US is like the "old" country."Here, right matters."
How quaint.
Is anyone really suprised ? You can’t easdrop on potus and leak classified phone calls
the guy is lucky he’s not being prosecuted.
So people don't normally get removed from cabinet or nsc positions for various disagreements or conflicts with current administrations? Huh, who knew.I am not shocked in the slightest that you don't understand that testifying truthfully is not grounds for dismissal. I am not shocked that you don't understand this is not how any normal personnel exchange would occur on the NSC, or the Pentagon.
Not usually when that "conflict" is upholding their oath to defend the constitution. But republicans are funny.So people don't normally get removed from cabinet or nsc positions for various disagreements or conflicts with current administrations? Huh, who knew.
Ah so you don't know anything about vindman. Not surprising. This move is good for those that don't want politics involved with national security.
Vindy and Eric c. can go do more political operating for schiffer now.
What specific policy decisions did Vindman disagree with that forced his removal? And, no, this is not normal. Having a healthy NSC means differing opinions. That is how effective organizations work. You must work at a cult, Lord knows you support one politically.So people don't normally get removed from cabinet or nsc positions for various disagreements or conflicts with current administrations? Huh, who knew.

Easy on the drama
You apparently don't know what his job was. I can't seem to help you with that.You still haven't addressed it.
Unfreacking real.Ah so you don't know anything about vindman. Not surprising. This move is good for those that don't want politics involved with national security.

You apparently don't know what his job was. I can't seem to help you with that.
He was a "supposed" expert. His superiors were on call as well and didn't see a problem so dems didnt call them. He is not elected and can be replaced, which he should have been. End of story
Trumpophiles?Some of the Trumpophobes on this board believe that Burt Lancaster was the hero of “Seven Days in May”
No surprise but wonder if he has recourse under whistle blower laws.

Maybe he should run for office.None. He’s not a whistleblower. He serves at the pleasure of the POTUS.
His evil twin got the ax, as well.Umm, he didn't leak anything. Of course I don't expect you to understand the difference.
And what is left of the once proud republican party celebrates. Sad.A war hero was just fired by a draft dodger. Sad and disgusting indeed.
