Lt. Col. Vindman, who testified in President Trump’s impeachment inquiry, 'escorted' out of the White House on Friday, his lawyer says.
"LTC Vindman was asked to leave for telling the truth," his attorney, David Pressman, said in a statement."The truth has cost LTC Alexander Vindman his job, his career and his privacy."
The twin,"a decorated Iraq War veteran, was escorted off of the grounds of the White House, suddenly and with no explanation, despite over two decades of loyal service to this country. He deeply regrets that he will not be able to continue his service at the White House," Pressman said.An Army spokesperson told NBC News,"We can confirm that both Lt. Cols. Vindman have been reassigned to the Department of the Army.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said,"This action is not a sign of strength. It only shows President Trump's weakness.","It's clear Trump is sending a signal to anyone who dares to come forward with the truth. Lt. Col. Vindman showed devotion to duty, something this lawless president knows nothing about.
