Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman was quick to fire back at Newsmax anchor Greg Kellys diss of him this week, saying in a colorful tweet that he wont stand for Kellys insulting him and his family.
Im not @SenTedCruz. I will not allow attacks on my wife and family go unanswered. Your attacks are even more pathetic than your pitiful attempts at notoriety @gregkellyusa, Vindman tweeted Monday.

Vindmans Monday remarks were in response to Kellys comments on Twitter a day earlier. Kelly posted a picture of Vindman, his twin brother Eugene and father Semyon, and said, what a bunch of Schlubs. IS this the waiting room at Jiffy Lube? No, its the Vindman family you know, that drama Queen who colluded with the Deep State to get TRUMP. Hes now running around trying to remind everyone who he is. Today Fake News @CBSNews hype his book.'
Vindman managed to include a dig at Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in his reply. He alluded to Cruzs track record of failing to defend himself and his family against personal attacks even from within his own party Cruz famously refused to retort after former president Donald Trump insinuated his wife Heidi was unattractive and threatened to spill the beans on her. Cruz also did nothing after Trump suggested Cruzs father Rafael Cruz was involved in the 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy.

His main claim to "fame" is losing his shit at the staff of a Mickey D's because they (checks notes) didn't have the McFishwich (or whatever the hell it's called) on the menu? ...Wait, what? Seriously??
