God damn, Vindman just told Nunes to call him by his fucking name.
Nunes and the Republicans think this strategy to out the whistleblower is sooooo clever.

Vindman is a boss.
Nunes- âMr. Vindman ~some bs questionâ
Vindman âRanking member, itâs Lt. Col. Vindman pleaseâ.
âAnd the witness will address the court as Sir, or His Honor. Iâm quite certain Iâve earned it.â

That previous back and forth will now be the basis for a full on Vindman/Whisteblower smear campaign.

I like Clownsel Jammâs relaxed, âthese details are no big deal but letâs just establish themâ style.
What has any of this got to do with anything? GOP has so little they struggle to fill 45 mins.
I just turn off the TV when itâs the GOP turn. It makes me too angry listening to their nonsense. Iâll be back for the good guys.
Also, is it possible that Vindman is the whistleblower?
I wish Devin Nunes Cow was doing the questioning.
He said under oath he didnât know who the whistleblower was, I highly doubt itâs him.
Theyâre basically trying to show that Trump has always been concerned with âcorruptionâ and that all the meetings Americans had with Ukranians were pleasant. Since the meetings were all good, there couldnât possibly be any underlying problems, right?
The GOP defense of throwing out buzz words is so tilting. It doesnât work here but it works with their base when all they see is a super cut of the buzz words and clips with a red-faced Hannity or Cucker yelling over it about THE WITCH HUNT.
