The Department of Defense Office of Inspector General has found that Trump administration officials unlawfully retaliated against former Army Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, the twin brother of Alexander Vindman, who served as a key witness in former President Trump’s first impeachment trial.
We fucking saw this in fucking real time. Trumpistas must pay.
It’s mob behavior.
The report, however, does not make any recommendations for punishment against Trump administration officials who have since left the White House.<
And justice for all… except the unindicted coconspirator who seems to be above justice.
Sky blue, water wet, ursine defecates in woods.
(Would say Pop Catholic but he’s Jesuit so that’s debatable 
Both Vindman brothers were clearly, irrefutably and shamelessly fucked over as retribution by DT and his cohorts. It’s a stain on everyone involved in the subterfuge and on their office in general. This needs to be legally rectified, publicly, in the strongest way possible.
Justice for people like the Vindmans and Strzok, McCabe, Yovanovitch, Yates, are very high on my list of what ought to be done to clean up this mess. It adds to the injury done if a society just memory holes these things. These people did the right thing and were punished for it by thugs.
Standard US policy seems to be to offer an official apology, and maybe even a few bucks, 50-100 years after the offense. Which as you note, we citizens should not tolerate. Justice delayed, justice denied.
Stupid Orange Ruffian couldn’t tell the Vindman brothers apart, had to sanction both of them.
The report, however, does not make any recommendations for punishment against Trump administration officials who have since left the White House.
I could make some recommendations, and they’d be appropriate though perhaps not legally grounded. This standard we seem to have that high-ranking republicans are above the law or above being sanctioned for their ethically and morally reprehensible deeds will be the end of our society as we know it. And that’s a goal they actively seek.
No kidding. And good job on the no punishment thing.
Another on the long list of crimes in broad daylight.
Another Captain Obvious moment.
Now. What will be done about it?
Makes it hard for good people to do the right thing knowing your boss doesn’t have your back.
And I don’t mean Joe, I mean the Pentagon.
I love Rachel Vindman. She speaks the unvarnished truth with absolutly zero fucks to give about who she’s calling out, regardless of their position or power.
I follow her on Twitter because she consistently gives a whole new meaning to “hold my beer.”
Rachel answered your question: Nothing.
The same as with all these findings that Trump and his associates committed crimes but it up to the next person to do something about it.
This will adversely affect the GOP in these November elections.
This is what we pay Inspectors General to do? Investigate until they can call the issue of discipline moot, then issue a report opining that what we all watched happening probably did happen, but, you know, ¯\(ツ)/¯ ?!
Also makes it a joke that all the people with nothing personal at risk spent those years saying that everyone on the inside had a duty to toss their careers down the shitter in exchange for no actual results, retaliation and all that.
That even now the pentagon is still doing what it does best, protect the institution no matter the harm to any individuals.
DUH, I guess the IG was blind, but now they can see.
