This sh** by the seditious DIMs/LIBs is getting so tiresome. I do hope President Trump eventually releases ALL of the garbage that NSA has gathered on these criminals...including who paid taxpayer money (over $75,000,000) to pay off people they sexually molested. Let the light shine on these perverts and devils.

Acting House Oversight Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y, told NBC News she found Vindman’s remarks “extremely, extremely, extremely disturbing”

Very measured response. I would have expected at least two more "extremelys" given the gravity of the accusation.

We've all read the transcript. The fact that this guy has an opinion on what it all meant is nice, I guess, but it's no different than my opinion or your opinion or anybody else's opinion. He brought no actual knowledge to the discussion, despite the repeated 'he heard the phone call' nonsense. It's irrelevant.

This whole charade was premised on Trump not releasing the transcript. Once he released it, it was too late to change the script, and the dems are just following their script. Gotta give credit where credit is due, they know how to follow a script.

NBC “News” is not a trusted news source. They are simply one of the propaganda arms of the DNC. Nothing to see here. Move on.

The “impeachment” will roll on into next year as the cockroaches will keep coming out on cue.

I’m arguing with leftists on another site and they bristle when people use the word, “transcript” to describe what we have. It’s why I use the phrase “phone call record” on that site.

They honestly think there is some word for word transcript locked away in a super double secret vault somewhere. And the interesting thing is that some of these guys are otherwise fairly intelligent folk.

Point of information, we don’t actually have a transcript, we have a rendition, and it’s also not of the entire call.


Is there a more complete record of the call somewhere, or is this all we have?

With all the flipping scandal in the Obama Administration, I don’t recall one whistleblower. The Democrat’s should have impeached Obama!

The Army should be very concerned about his actions. This retired Army Officer never heard of a Lt Col entrusted with a sensitive White House position challenge the President himself. I hope this guy has his retirement package ready.

It’s that Kwid Proe Kuwo stuff. The Dems are always astounded when they hear that we don’t just give U.S. Taxpayer money away for nothing.

We expect something in return. A little This for That. In Trump’s case it was a simple request for the Ukraine officials to look into what went on in the 2016 election.

Yes, that touches the Biden’s. But since the Dems don’t believe they did anything wrong there shouldn’t be anything to worry about. But somehow they still get upset.

Hmmmm.

If someone's opinion of the call is deemed more disturbing than the actual transcript of the call, then I would suggest these hearings are P.T. Barnum, redux. :)

In an environment where an actual media was functioning, Democrats wouldn't dare try any of this nonsense.

If they’re leftists, they’re not intelligent folk. Intelligent and leftist do not go together.

It’s amazing, isn’t it? They are counting on complete and total ignorance on the matter at a time when more people are following this President more closely than any time in history.

President Trump will need all our massive support, but I believe he will crush them like slow moving cockroaches by the time this is over.

Mentally disturbed people always find everything disturbing.

And an officer who was born in the Soviet Ukraine in 1975 and emigrated at age 4 with his dad— who still lives in Brooklyn-— and is certain to have “contacts” in the current Ukraine, most likely with the Pro-russian Poroshenko President defeated by Zelensky.

The pro-Russian ukrainians who are the 5th column against Ukrainian Freedom which we support. The US of Trump I mean, not obamaumao who did zippo and the Russians got back their sacred Crimea.

First off no offense to any active or retired Lt. Col.

I have work with some Nut Jobs who were Lt. Col. Because he is a Lt. Col and has a purple heart means xxxxx (nothing) to me.

I know a lot of people who have served multiple missions overseas. I know people who died during deployments. I have seem many so call wars/conflicts.

My personal belief we have not fought a real war since WWII. A real war is where the politicians step back and let us (Sheepdogs) take away the enemies will to fight by killing a whole lot of people. If we have to bomb cites so be it...

Besides the purple heart (not many medals and ribbons for 21 years) he appears to be a nut job stuck with a desk job. He has been in the Army for 21 years.

Why is he still a O5?

Is he just along for a free ride brown nosing people for his next promotion?

Does he say anywhere that the transcript is wrong or incomplete? If so then he has something he must prove. If not he should just STFU .

Read somewhere that years ago he went off the Infantry command track and into Foreign Area Officer work.

False. Social media lie made up by the Democrat Fascist media bots. This fraudelnt claim wad debunked the day this was released. They simply made up a lie hoping it would stick. Apprently with you the lie stuck.
