You want to know why we are in this Ukrainian quagmire? Go back and watch the NSC/State Department “impeachment” of Trump. The Vindmans, the NSC, State and the entire GOP swamp was out to eliminate Trump for trying to pick up the Ukrainian rock that DC oligarchial business was being transacted under. It’s all about protecting the crony compatriots and the money laundering operation in Ukraine. With the tens of billions in funding the crooks in DC will now be able access from Ukraine, don’t expect anything to change regardless of how many have to die to maintain the DC gravy train.
Are you saying that Robert O'Brien as head of NSC was in on the attempted takedown of Trump via Vindman? I had heard that Vindman was actually an employee of the Pentagon on loan to the NSC for a limited period of time. Perhaps he acted on his own accord; and once the whistleblower ball was rolling, NSC would have had to sue Congress to stop Vindman from answering a Congressional summons to testify. But I'm just speculating.
