This will be the first debate since President Impeached, offered his State of the Union, was acquitted in Senate, held a celebration in our White House, and fired “Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the top Ukraine policy officer on the National Security Counsel — along with his twin brother Yevgeny, who was not an impeachment witness,” and U.S. Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland, Politico reported on Friday.
NEW: Rep. Adam Schiff, after Alexander Vindman was escorted out of the White House: "He upheld his oath when others would not. Right matters to him. And to us.” https://t.co/T6jJcHRldn pic.twitter.com/SoBdKHejtx
