First my father was a WWII veteran. And the Vindman brothers spoke truth to lies and they were trolled hard and lost a lot in the process. Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the Army officer who was fired from the National Security Council after testifying in President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial, wasn’t the only one escorted from the White House on Friday.
His twin brother, Army Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, was also escorted off White House grounds at the same time and apparently dismissed from his post at the National Security Council.
Alexander Vindman was the Ukraine expert for the NSC while Yevgeny Vindman was a senior lawyer and ethics official for the council. Both are decorated Army officers.
Larry, I followed the Trump Impeachment hearing during Trump's first term. Alexander Vindman testified against Trump and for the support of Ukraine. Trump didn't send Javlyn's to Ukraine. That money was approved by Congress under the Obama Administration. Javlyn's take out tanks and helicopters. Congress wrote a check for something like 450 million dollars to get those weapons to Ukraine. Trump tried to blackmail President Zelensky to lie on then Senator Joe Biden's son having to do with Burisma a corrupt gas company in Ukraine. Zelensky put an end to Burisma when he was elected President of Ukraine. Colonel Vindman and his brother were both in the impeachment hearing. Trump should have been impeached then and the stinking Republicans in the senate would not vote to impeach Trump for breaking the law. The same things he is doing now. Refusing to pay out grant money voted in and approved by Congress who holds the purse string of the United States. The President has no legal authority to hold back or freeze any moneys that Congress appropriates.
The partisans are gathered in the forest of society and we are not going away.
My fellow Vietnam War veteran friends and I took oaths in the 1960s to support and defend our constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. To the constitution. To rule of law. Not to LBJ. Not to Richard Nixon. Not to Democrats or Republicans or any political faction.
To the rule of law.
We want our country back and we will not abide a king, or tyrant, and not this dictator-wannabe pathologically narcissistic sociopath and his legion of similarly dysfunctional, bootlicking lackeys, whatever rat nest they live in.
Same here. I served in the Marines during the Cold War. I took an oath to defend the United States of America from all enemies both foreign and domestic. All of our soldiers take that oath when they join our military services. And we have to fascist pigs now running the White House again. One thing I do know is that to many veterans and government workers voted for that pos in the White House. And now those same government workers are crying foul that lost their jobs. My opinion is shame on all of you who voted for both of those a-holes. When Republicans scream for less government, and deep state malarky, they don't give a damn about the American people. Only their oligarchs and rich billionaires. They need to be lambasted with non-stop phone calls, telling them that they are going to lose their seats in the next election. Those fired workers are not going to be voting for the jerks in Congress who have supported corrupt Trump, Vance and the rat Musk.
Yes, Mary it was so good to see your light shining once again. You are an inspiration on how one can heal and care for themselves. It needs to be a priority and your response to stress, loss and trauma is an inspiration.
Tomorrow, I rise again with purpose and intent to take care of myself and not fall victim to all the distractions and sadness and fright that loom so large. I can shape my reality and set a course for myself that is a healthy response versus allowing myself to fall victim to any of it.
Alex is a wonderful example as well for sure. I thank you both for giving me your example which plays out in front of our eyes. We can all be heroes if we stay the course and believe in ourselves and each other. United we care and united we stand.
I have to admit, my favorite articles from Mary were the ones before the elections. She always filled me with optimism. These days, it is hard to remain optimistic.
Mary- with your training and understanding of malignant narcissism, do you have insights into how best to neutralize … or at least slow.. “Uncle Donald???”
I read a couple of days ago that Trump was a KGB Agent from 1979 to 1987. It was printed in an Irish newspaper. The info came from a former FSB Intelligence Officer. The officer said that Trump was very young and served the KGB with Putin who was also a KGB officer at the time. There was a photo of the two men and a woman standing together.
My question is what are we going to do better for the people? Both Russia and the United States are a subjugating the masses while obscenely enriching the oligarchs.
The President and the Vice President have to be impeached. The second solution since impeachment didn't work the last time, is to get registered voter to start petitioning the Republicans that are holding office for recall signatures on all of them. That forces their removal if you can get enough signatures for every one of them. That forces an immediate re-election to office. And if nothing else maybe scare the hell out of them. They seem to forget who elected them. They need a strong reminder. They are elected to serve the people not stinking Trump and his cronies.
It’s understandable to feel frustrated when political leaders don’t fulfill their promises. Donald Trump has a history of making commitments that he hasn’t kept. For instance, he pledged to lower grocery prices and end inflation, but inflation has risen during his presidency, leading to higher costs for essentials like food and housing.  Additionally, he assured Americans of better healthcare coverage but has taken steps that undermined existing protections, such as attempting to repeal the Affordable Care Act without a viable replacement. 
Despite these unmet promises, some supporters continue to trust him, possibly due to aligning with his broader political stance or skepticism toward alternative leaders. However, as these broken promises accumulate, it’s likely that more individuals will reassess their support.
He doesn't get to run again. But stinking Vance will try to run for President in the next 4 years. People need to not vote for him. Rub his bullying President Zelensky right in Vance's dirty note. Make him own his disrespect towards other world leaders. He is a disgrace.
It sounds like you’re following political developments closely. If you’re looking for information on J.D. Vance’s policies, political positions, or potential future campaigns, I can look up the latest updates for you. Let me know how I can help!
Heartbreaking scenes like the VINDMAN brothers perp walked out are so powerful for future good impacts...made the frump regime look so weak and slimy...must be a God thing bc still going on. In God s good time...mysterious ways.
Thank you Alexander Vindman for your integrity and courage.
Mary Trump - Alexander Vindman. Two American Heroes!
Thank you both for all you do.
OMGoodness thank you Mary and with Alex Vindman 💜💜💜 love you both and your brother too!!

Thank you, Mary and Alex! It was a good live interview.
Mary, thank you for the video, it is great to see you smile with bright eyes! We need every bit of optimism. Slava Ukraini!

Sure, it is great to see that Mary looks happy and hopeful. This is how we want to see her all the time!
Mary often can put a smile on my face. A brilliant woman with a good heart.
I have to admit, my favorite articles from Mary were the ones before the elections. She always filled me with optimism. These days, it is hard to remain optimistic.
I read positive posts, from the wonderful Mary, from Robert Reich and Scott Dworkin. Adam Kinzinger. They can give me some hope.

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
After what the world witnessed of the ambush of President Zelensky, we should be taking action to remove Trump and Vance for War crimes. Disgusting.
It’s that time.
Agree completely!

When are these people going to learn that they cannot trust trump! He will take and not keep his word!

Republicans are a bunch of cowards! They ‘d rather keep their jobs than doing the right thing for their country and the American people!
Heartbreaking scenes like the VINDMAN brothers perp walked out are so powerful for future good impacts...made the frump regime look so weak and slimy...must be a God thing bc still going on. In God s good time...mysterious ways.
You stood up when others bent the knee you are a hero and we're treated poorly by a corrupt administration.
Just bought your book!
Thank you, Mary. Saw this live and it didn’t disappoint. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
