Seems to be alot of that going around lately.

Well bye bye.
The applause you received on leaving the WH, was a good riddance from happy people.

You put your mouth first, way before being a patriot.

You and Sondland can be text buddies.
Or whatever.

Just disappear please.

And lastly ... I thought that Esper (Defense Sec.) had approved his O-6 promotion? Ugh.

Bye bye shit-hits-the-fan (ifithitu).

I hope the correct vindman leaves the service, but a twofer might be a good deal. Big Grin

I tried it and the first hit on another forum gave me a whole page of his posts - all welcoming new forum members. Big Grin

Walmart needs to recruit this guy.

It sounds like he was trying pad his post count to build credibility.

Lol, exactly my thoughts. We should walk through staff buildings and blast those types out with a fire hose.

I think it is a nickname due to Kentucky Derby held at Churchhill Downs in Louisville.

I can see vindman becoming something of a michael avenatti type of dumpster file for the left.

While I don't see him blackmailing a Fortune 500 company or stealing from whores, he might not be able to keep the shit off his nose from over in the former Soviet bloc countries.

Then the "hero" will need to be put in a corner and probably still praised a little for the "good" he did.

Good. Good ,about damn time.
Still wish that he would face some prison time in Leavenworth for his traitorous actions against his Commander in Chief.
One Vindman is gone and now hopefully his brother Lt. Col Vevgeny Vindman will follow in his brother's footsteps.

LTC Vindman was selected for War College, a one year course for officers who are being prepared for high level assignments.

Why retire now? As a LTC, he is vested until he hits the age limit (55) or time-in-service limit (30 years active federal service) or gets caught by a selective early retirement board or... gets asked to leave for cause. By that I mean a felony or something like that. There is no reporting that says the Administration wanted to kick him out of the Army for cause, only that someone out there doesn't want him on the 06 promotion list.

So assuming all he got from White House duty was a bad OER, all he has to do is be quiet and wait. There is an election in 120 days - if the Democrats win (and the bookies are saying they probably will) he would get "rehabilitated," promoted to Colonel, and given a staff assignment suitable for someone as wonderful as he is.

If President Trump wins, then LTC Vindman could finish War College and go where the Army says they need him - or simply retire whenever he wants to.

So it makes me wonder if there is something else up with this. Does he think the Democrats are going to give him a high level position if he become available now? Does he think CNN needs another anti-Trump commentator? This guy's utility to the Democrats and/or CNN has a half-life of about 60 days.
