Forseeable that the laws protecting whistelblowers would be ignored by the scum around Al Capone, but still saddening. Another piece of law and order being buried in a foggy night. The man did obey his legal obligations and followed the procedures for such cases. But maybe he should feel lucky that he escaped a knife in his back. So far at least.

Quote:
Top Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer said the Pentagon had assured him in December that "patriots and whistleblowers" like Lt Col Vindman would be protected.
"Any reprisals against him or others who came forward to tell the truth are wrong and should be seen for what they are: An extension of President Trump's cover-up."
But Republican Congressman Thomas Massie said he would have fired Lt Col Vindman.
"He's a leaker, not a whistleblower," Mr Massie said. "Current Commander in Chief doesn't take orders from a Lt Col!"
Crappy comments from a crappy brain.



Amongst the first lessons any staff in the WH is being briefed on, is what a demand to blow the whistle is, and what to do when it applies, and what procedure has to be followed in order to do so, and that this procedure has the full guaranteed protection of the law and law enforcement.



Well. Laws are overrated. Lets ignore them.


Deeper and deeper into the dirt America slides.
