Never missing an opportunity to forgo his right to remain silent, Alex Vindman asserted that GOP lawmakers’ “attacks on our democracy” emboldened Russian President Vladimir Putin to go forward with his military invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The former Army Officer and National Security Council advisor sited Representative Elise Stefanik (R, N.Y.), the House Republican Conference chairwoman, for calling out PINO Joe\u2019s weak foreign policy for allowing Putin to strike. She had the audacity to point out inconvenient facts concerning unanswered Russian cyberattacks on U.S. businesses and the disastrous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

“Putin is responsible for this war, but you deserve a great deal of responsibility for it,” Vindman stated using the hashtag #GOPownsthis. “It is your vile attacks on our democracy, that suggested to Putin he can conduct this war. Your actions suggested that the U.S. was weak and distracted.”<\/p>\n

Not through beclowning himself, Vindman has just cast his net wider. David sends.<\/p>\n

Alexander Vindman says Ron Johnson, others have ‘blood on their hands’ over Russian invasion of Ukraine<\/h3>\n

Former national security aide Alexander Vindman accused Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson and others of having “blood on their hands” as Ukraine withstands a withering assault from Russian troops.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the Journal Sentinel, Vindman included Johnson on a list with former President Donald Trump, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Fox News host Tucker Carlson, claiming they undermined U.S. national security.<\/p>\n

“Civilians are dying, Ukrainians are providing a formidable defense, defending democracy for Americans as well as for themselves and their homes. And Ron Johnson is trying to distract and obfuscate,” Vindman said.<\/p>\n

Vindman was responding to comments made Feb. 27 by Johnson on Fox News.<\/p>\n

Vindman had been with Johnson on a key trip to Ukraine in May 2019, in which the senator sought to assure the newly elected government of congressional support.<\/p>\n

A retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, Vindman also blamed Johnson and others for ending his military career.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Apparently Alex failed to notice the change in administration.\u00a0Putin certainly did, and took full advantage. Thanks, David.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
