Friend,
With a blank check from the Senate's sham impeachment trial in hand, Donald Trump is out for revenge. He's starting to lash out against those who put their loyalty to the country ahead of their loyalty to him.
His latest target? Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the top Ukraine expert who was on the fated July 25th phone call where Trump tried to extort an investigation into the Bidens from Ukrainian President Zelensky. Vindman later testified before the House about what he heard on the call.
On Friday, Lt. Col. Vindman was pushed out of his role at the National Security Council -- and escorted from the White House. Trump fired Vindman's brother at the exact same time, making it clear that this was nothing but an act of politically motivated revenge.
The American people will not sit quietly by as President Trump fires a decorated military officer in childish retaliation. Add your name: I stand with Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman >>
Vindman did this country a great service. He felt, in his words, a "sense of duty" to tell the American people the truth -- and now, that honorable act has cost him his job, his career, and his privacy.
He needs to know that Americans are thankful for his courage -- and that Trump's attacks can't change the important truth that he told.
And the White House must be met with a nationwide outcry -- thousands upon thousands of us speaking out and condemning Trump's abhorrent decision to punish Vindman for his patriotism.
Show your support for Lt. Col. Vindman -- and thank him for standing up for what's right.
Thanks for all you do,
