Suggesting Purple Heart Recipient Has Dual Loyalties Is An ‘Interesting Line Of Questioning’ | MSNBC
whistleblower will end up like Epstein if outed,,,,whoa
@DeepForest Like NRA?
Why does everyone continue to talk about the one whistle blower?? There were numerous concerns about this phone call by more than one person! So everyone EXCEPT the honorable Cadet Bonespurs is lying?? Right because he has never lied to the people before !😂The Mcpussy Grabber who is sexually attracted to his own daughter. Disgusting and vile Idiocracy.
@mark kimbrell wow you still dont know who the whistleblower is?
If not murder I’m sure they would like to see some critical injuries in a car “accident”.
HE IS THE WHISTLEBLOWER…..
I wonder how many Folks are feeling overwhelming sadness as well as anger..watching the GOP fight so hard to discredit the Testimony of Career Military Personnel..Political Advisers, who did not ask to be involved in this spectacle.. The GOP have lost their moral compasses. They are incapable it appears of placing Truth and Allegiance to Our Country ahead of Loyalty to their “Dear Leader Chosen One”
@the Skeptic King theSkeptic King So I guess it’s all about interpretation. Honestly we all find truth only when it aligns with what we already believe. The Republicans actually created the rules as they are, please research the Clinton hearings. Both sides have not presented witnesses the other requested so I see that as a wash. You can call it what you want but in the end it’s about honesty and trust to the American people. A little transparency and this would not be a topic, releasing the complete transcript instead of loading it into a secure server would have made this a non-starter. In the end words matter and actions even more, this just looks dishonest and it doesn’t have to be. However this is just my opinion…
@the Skeptic King Shut Up! little man. How hilarious.
Kat you dont have a clue…>Go take your meds…..
Kathleen Martin – Tubby Vindman is a joke.
I’m a Veteran and I am going to remember this when I speak to younger people about joining the military to serve this nation. I strongly suggest that they pay attention to how the military top decorated soldiers are being treated and vilified.
ty for your service, and ty to all who have served our great nation. (from an army mom, but i love and honor all of you from all branches)
@the Skeptic King What nonsense? Everything you’ve said is nonsense. You are such a LOSER!!!
As a veteran you will know that a Purple Heart is not a “top” decoration. Having a PH does not make you a god so stop this lionising and jingoistic nonsense. You are degrading the notion of service.
theSkeptic King – eh?
What an insult to all the children of immigrants serving in the military! Sad.
@Maritza Piccarillo – Geez but you’re stupid.
Lol yes so insulting im crushed….psssshhhh get a life
only the RUSSIAN one.
DAYBROK3 – Tubby Vindman is a joke.
Nicolle should not be shocked: the Cult would condemn baby Jesus if he went against their Dear Leader.
@Merrilou Neigenfind My personal definition for Conservative Christian, is Ku Klux..
They just made the word sound more acceptable to some of their peers, and attempted to disguise to the rest of the world, WHO/ WHAT, THEY REALLY ARE.
@Kelly ann kanye I own several bibles, read theology, and raised my children in the church. I haven’t always been an atheist. There was a time I would have referred to myself as religious. Jesus is a good person to follow as are Robin Myers, Shane Claiborne, Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, John Pavlovitz, and William Barber. I count some ministers as friends.
@Merrilou Neigenfind Thank you for responding.. I was just curious, after you brought up Matthew 25:40…because that verse was drilled in us as children, by OUR MOTHER…and none of us are atheist..but to each its own, and I wish you much happiness.
They were *happy* when baby Jesus was ripped from Maria’s arms and put in a concentration camp. Jesus is watching, and taking names…some of these that think themselves Christian will learn that *their hate* has locked them out of heaven. Oh well, if they read their Bible they could see that coming.
I’ve read Revelations, and heaven isn’t segregated.
@Pipe Tunes
LOL … Just like your Dreams , Bub…🙊🙉🙈
Those of LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN FAITH have definitely misconstrued the Message of Jesus & his Disciples . Toxic mentality of hateful beliefs
The Republican party is nothing but a cancer on our American society. They need to be eradicated. Those that have betrayed the country needs to be placed in jail along with their president
Again some Republicans not all are a cancer. We need not to be divided at time like this. We know from proof that donald trump is a criminal, and i agree some Republicans doserve to go jail but not all. We need stop fighting with each other. We all have different opinions and thats fine this is America we can all think differently thats why our country is great. We need unite and stop insulting each other over difference in opinion.
Just vote ’em out
@Bubbles McGee The red southern states that vote Republican today had ancestors that owned slaves. Fact.
Jon Doe your mama should of swallowed you!!!!
So true, just when you think nothing can shock you any more about the GOP you get shocked again, and again. The Repugnican Party should be dissolved, it can never be taken seriously again.
Not surprising that so called people who support a draft dodger would go after military personnel.
castroy64 – yes it was.
castroy64 – ad hominem attacks show you have nothing of substance to say.
Onair Carna <- Triggered.
castroy64 – too right. it really annoys me when people believe what they are told without doing their own research.
Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan shouldn’t even be congressman.. Nunes helped obstruct the Muller report and Jordan enabled a sexual predator while at Ohio State University…
Shining examples of republicans
Yv
@Yvonne Farmer you are sick
dual loyalties?
republicunts are loyal to one big orange pos and none other
and Putin
I know! What hypocrites!
Don’t sink to there hateful,ignorant level of name calling.
Loyal to money
@Mike Malveaux Thanks!
I generally use “Republikkkans.”
As a former navy pilot and Gulf War veteran, this is appalling regardless of party. The GOP is not the GOP I remember in any way, shape, or form.
You see some people cannot handle the truth. Their cognitive dissonance forces them to live in an information free bubble That seems to be you.
Well compared to you I seem to appear eloquent and articulate. You see some people cannot handle the truth. Your cognitive dissonance forces you to live in an information free bubble. You simply cannot deal with the fact that Trump has now twice been found to have done nothing wrong. What next? Is it three strikes?
@the Skeptic King As demonstrated by your master, and the rest of his cult, you project on to others that which you suffer… i.e. cognitive dissonance. You think because Trump’s crime syndicate has been successful at obstructing justice prior to these hearings he is free of wrongdoing. You are mistaken. His slime is so horrid, it even overwhelms the noxious swamp of a Republican White House.
@the Skeptic King Just find in the dictionary the meaning for : “listening in on a call” and you will find out that this has nothing to do with spying etc.
@the Skeptic King Bless your heart, it was his JOB as well as many others, to offer talking points, listen in and CORRECT and FILL out the missing words in the REAL transcription. He was chosen for his proficiency in Ukranian, because he can catch subtleties of the Ukrainian President
This is the second time I’ve been surprised at a witness. From Fox’s reporting about Vindman, I thought he was going to have a heavy, thick Russian accent based on them insinuating he was a Ukrainian double agent or spy that only worked for Ukraine’s interests.
He was 3 years old when his parents emigrated from Ukraine. Why would he hold any allegience to a country he probably doesn’t even remember?
@arjaygee They didn’t just emigrate they fled from persicution
Yeah me as well. I thought he would have a really THiCK Russian accent
@Alan Harris Fleeing a country from persecution IS emigration. My point is that adults seldom hold any allegience to a country they left as a toddler. Not sure what your point is.
He has bled real blood for our country, and that was in defense of country from without. Now he is defending our country from tyranny from within.
Against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Indeed he has and is and he’s not going to get away unscathed. He will never attain higher rank in the Military and will, more likely than not, be forced to retire shortly after all this has faded from the public eye. Either way, the only way he could have lost more, is to have been Killed In Action. He stood up for what is right and true, even at the risk of his career and yes, even his life, and he is to be Commended for doing so.
Mikey his feelings were hurt you dumn MF….
Patriot Vindman vs. GOP politicians.
Truth?
The GOP politicians can’t handle the truth!!!
@castroy64 Copying coNment over and over… Sad. And only proves one thing: You were never in the army, my boy. 😂🤦♂️
@castroy64 When were you kicked out of the Army? Vindman has served for many, many years. Some serve, while others leave.
check out devin nunes military service… oh wait.. there is none.
Marlowe Dugger – Vindman ridiculed the US in front of other officers. Those who served with him, detest him. https://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2019/11/02/officer-recalls-how-ltc-vindman-ridiculed-americans-in-front-of-russian-officers/
https://www.cernovich.com/chow-thief-rangers-wanted-alexander-vindman-removed-from-ranger-school/
@Marlowe Dugger pretty sure you didn’t watch his lack luster performance… RACHEL GIVE YOU THE SUMMARY… GO AWAY…
@Bono Budju are you stupid or some body at CNN said it so has to be true then…
@Trumpian MAGA 2020 assumptions are the mother of all f**k ups.
I just find Republicans really low-class with their questions.
Bero Smith what else can they say?
@S H I suppose! They’ve made their choice.
What questions? All I hear are political speeches full of unsubstantiated claims and calumny.
Ukraine offering him a position in their government is a testament to his value, him turning them down, and reporting it to his superiors is a testament to his loyalty to his/our country.
well said!
Yup. That and the way he reported his concerns through the appropriate channels regarding Trump’s call would seem to indicate that he is a ‘by the book’ guy.
I don’t think your comments do him justice. He also didn’t let them entertain the idea and he immediately notified counter intelligence officials. This is stark contrast to the Trump family who explicitly or implicitly entertain the idea and try to leverage the relationship all the while being completely unaware they are being leveraged the whole time.
Funny he turned the Ukraine down and he sucks but illegal GOP donor born in Ukraine trying to get into the Ukraine gas industry Lev Parnas worked for Trump and Giuliani said fire Ambassador Yovanovitch and investigate John Solomon’s debunked Biden conspiracy theory and they did.
Testament to his corruption.
Cowards who NEVER served attack a war hero…pathetic
@John Smith John, you’re PROJECTING again! Oh, and while you’re at it, why don’t you get some more salt for TRump’s foot bath…His boo boos are REALLY hurting…
@Emery Coppola Jr. projecting? You’re just jealous of a MAN like Trump…You are a TRANNY arnt you EMERY….LMFo…i SAW YOUR VIDEO emery..>wow THAT FOREHEAD YOU HAVE….a face only a mother could love>..nO WONDER YOU THINK VIDMAN IS A HERO….
@John Smith Poor “John”, too scared to post his REAL name or a photo. And yet you attack a War Hero who not only served but was wounded. Go get some more salt for TRump’s feet, a coward just like you.
“The Duty of a Patriot is to protect his country from its government” Thomas Jefferson
Awesome quote
Vindman should drop this saying on that asshat republiKKKans next time round.
Trump has dual loyalties him self and Putin .
Manny Sereno Oh, no–trump has only one loyalty, but it’s to himself.
