“Vindman was told by senior Army officials that he would no longer be deployable in his area of expertise, which includes Ukraine...He was also told by senior officers he would need a "rehabilitative assignment" even if he had opted to attend the National War College.”

"The President:.attempted to force LTC Vindman to choose: Between adhering to the law or pleasing a President. Between honoring his oath or protecting his career. Between protecting his promotion or the promotion of his fellow soldiers," his lawyer said in statement to CNN.

Treacherous bastards in the WH.

7. Sec of Defense would be a great start....

Lt. Col. Vindman has the credentials for such a position.

9. I know.. that's what I'm thinking ahead about..

This door closing.. but there's got to be something good opening up for him in the future!

5. On LTC. Vindman chest along with his purple heart is this

Airborne "Jump Wings"

I hope that President Biden has a job for General Vindman.

6. Trump administration's contempt for the military is really unmatched in modern history

That this man, who has dedicated his life to our country, is so shabbily treated is an indictment of us all.

Disgusting.

8. I hope things go well

for him regardless of his next job. This sucks.

And since it seems to be announced by TLP, I anticipate there will be an ad about it in 3... 2... 1.

10. That creep in the WH is despicable. He must enjoy ruining lives...how many, at this point?

I wonder if his brother will also retire? To remove him was criminal. Their only connection was by birth.

It would rub Trump's nose in it if Biden chose Vindman for some position in his administration.
