'Trump doesn't take orders from HIM': Rep. Thomas Massie's tweet on WH possibly firing Alexander Vindman is STRAIGHT fire

Sounds like the White House is considering a plan to fire Alexander Vindman.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving fella.

Seems Rep. Thomas Massie agrees:

I’d fire him. I listened to his testimony in the SCIF. He’s a leaker, not a whistleblower. Vindman was upset that @realDonaldTrump didn’t follow the script Vindman prepared for the phone call. Current Commander in Chief doesn’t take orders from a Lt. Col.!https://t.co/a9KYrfiVFN

From Fox News:

The White House is reportedly weighing options to dismiss Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman from the National Security Council (NSC) in an effort to shrink its foreign policy bureaucracy, a report said.

Bloomberg reported that the White House plans to frame it as part of an NSC staff downsizing, not a retaliation. Vindman gave testimony last year during President Donald Trump’s impeachment proceedings.

Vindman was an important witness for the Democrats in July and raised concerns over Trump’s phone call with Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky.

Fire Vindman … and his little twin bro too.

Sorry, fire Lt. Colonel Vindman.

Better?

After watching this ridiculous sham for months and months, our sympathy for these people went out the window.

I watched his entire testimony. I've rarely seen someone more willing to put his career and reputation on the line simply to speak the truth.

This vengeful reaction by Republicans is disgusting.

Wow, these people really snowed a lot of Americans.

Just to clarify, you watched his public testimony, but not his testimony in the SCIF.

Ouch.

Incoming presidents should always put together their own team. This includes times when they take over from another president in the same party.

I'm surprised he's not already gone.

It seems the Trump administration should have perhaps removed a few more Obama holdovers …

Granted, hindsight is always 20/20.
