WASHINGTON — Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a White House aide who played a central role in the impeachment case against President Donald Trump, has been ousted from his job at the National Security Council, according to his lawyer, who reported Friday afternoon that Vindman had been escorted out of the White House.
Here’s the full statement from Lt. Col. Vindman’s attorney saying he was escorted out of the White House today pic.twitter.com/s9vzZJ7wof Vindman, a decorated soldier, could be reassigned to a job at the Pentagon. It was speculated earlier Friday that he might leave as part of a group of staffers exiting the NSC, according to one person familiar with the expected decision. Another person familiar with Vindman’s situation said he had been preparing for retaliation from the White House for his testimony at the House impeachment hearings.
Alexander Vindman, a 20-year Army veteran, wore a uniform full of medals, including a Purple Heart, when he appeared late last year for what turned out to be a testy televised impeachment hearing. Trump supporters raised questions about the Soviet Jewish immigrant’s allegiance to the United States and noted that he had received offers to work for the government of Ukraine — offers Vindman said he swiftly dismissed.When the senior Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, Rep.
Mr. Vindman was insubordinate. Imo His uniform did not meet the requirements of TM10-227 or AR 670-1. He appears overweight. He told a Congressman to address him in a manner prohibited by by regulation. This clown doesn’t even know how to properly address a LTC or LTG.
Trump is the commander in chief and can fire anyone he wants!
You testify against me and I’ll still let you work inside my house? Probably not especially when I’m found innocent in the court of law.
In other words abused his power to satisfy a personal retaliation. Sounds familiar. BTW we lost years of expertise from these two brothers.
Almost a traitor of President!
Cuz your client failed to do his job - carry out the policy set by the sitting president
So long shit head
Trump did him a favor. He got him out of a shit assignment, he will get paid to kick back a few weeks until they re-assign him, and the next post will be much better. Trump is to dumb to see he did not hurt the man. Had he wanted to hurt him. He should have left him where he was.
🇺🇸If President Trump had not of ousted Mr. Alexander and his twin Brother, He would not of been the person I admire and respect! He has not gotten to where he is by putting up with disloyal employees, especially an ego maniac like Mr. Alexander, who has a little-man complex!🇺🇸KAG

This jackwagon should have considered this before he participated in an attempted coup.
he should be court marshaled
This is great news!
is his lawyer his brother?
Potus trump had luck this time. he shoudlnt accumulate the questionable dirty governance incidents
“Waaaaaaaa, waaaaaaaa, waaaaaaa. My client is a left-wing weasel who betrayed his boss and got re-assigned. Waaaaaaaa, waaaaaa” Stop your whining, scum-bag. In the real world, Vindman would have been fired and would have had to look for another job, for less pay.
It’s not revenge it’s common sense
Hell hath no fury like a narcissist who thinks he's been scorned. That includes a blind obsession with revenge that involves public humiliation when possible. That's who Rs gave more power to concluding DT learned his lesson. Big mistake. Wait and see. Much more pathology to come
Such a fool!
Only FoxNews tells MAGAt Kool-Aid realDonaldTrump supporters that a member of the Military is “Fired” 🤔😱
Maybe the USPS will give him a jo.
One could argue that any President needs to surround themselves with people they can trust.
