#1 Mike Flynn was a threat to the Klingon's, Vindman a recruited Klingon stringer ?

#2 Total disgrace. Such a blindingly obvious attempt at a palace coup.

How stupid do they think the people of this nation are?

This recalls January's surreal Covington Catholic schoolboy Shitshow, in which a serial liar, the deranged provocateur drum-banger "activist," was sold to us by his media enablers as a Vietnam vet, a heroic Native American martyr to toxic TrumperJugend "racism." Complete horseshit, all of it.

What nonsense will they trot out next-- that Hunter Biden is a "patriot" and a "war hero"?

#3 Why Is Vindman a War Hero but Flynn a Traitor?

What about Tulsi?

p.s. Vindman's purple heart - how come there is no mention of hospital time?

He probably even keeps the 'historic' band-aid in a safe.

#5 Because shut up.

#6 Vindman decided on his own to turn the DAO offices into a political arm of the DNC. What he did will cost him his career and set back the DAO programs decades. He leaked classified information for political and personal purposes, this is a crime.

#7 49 Pan, he also disobeyed an order not to talk to Congress. No one has to obey an ILLEGAL order, but the order was legal. At a minimum he should be dismissed from the NSC. He should also be court martialed.

#8 I did not catch that he was ordered to not talk to Congress. He should get to enroll in the long course in Leavenworth.

#9 ^Probably will, but not because he broke an order. Look, people like this don't act on principle - or, rather, their principles are self-centered. He acted to stop Ukrainian corruption investigation because, I'm betting, he's involved in corruption.

#10 Stop the weasel cold, suspend his clearance pending an Article-32 investigation.

#11 If you have to deal with conflicting orders issued by two authorities, the best option is to do nothing and let the courts sort it out. Especially wise when it's about talking or not talking.
