President Trump launched a flurry of activity on Twitter this morning — retweeting numerous messages by Republican lawmakers attacking the latest developments in House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry
Many of those messages criticized a resolution by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats, set to be voted upon by the full chamber Thursday, formalizing the next steps of the impeachment inquiry.in a post Trump retweeted Tuesday. “Codifying a sham process halfway through doesn’t make it any less of a sham process.”
Meanwhile, allies of the White House on cable news opened a new line of attack against Vindman — whose family fled Ukraine when he was a child — suggesting without evidence that the foreign-born public servant was more loyal to Ukraine than the U.S. “We all have an affinity to our homeland where we came from. Like me, I’m sure that Vindman has the same affinity,” former Rep. Sean Duffy told“He’s entitled to his opinion,” Duffy added. “He has an affinity, I think, for the Ukraine. He speaks Ukrainian, he came from the country, and he wants to make sure they’re safe and free. I understand that.”
John Yoo, a Justice Department official in former President George W. Bush’s administration, was even more explicit in questioning Vindman’s allegiance on Monday evening.that Ukrainian officials sought advice from Vindman on how to deal with Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney, Yoo told Fox News: “Some people might call that espionage.”
Vindman, an Army combat veteran of the Iraq War who received a Purple Heart after being wounded in an IED attack, described himself as a “patriot” in his“It is my sacred duty and honor to advance and defend our country, irrespective of party or politics,” he wrote.
