[ [link removed] ]headshot of Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Alexander Vindman
Hello John,
I wanted to take a moment to reach out to you on behalf of Adam Schiff and
explain why he deserves our support in his Senate race.
[ [link removed] ]If you, like me, believe we need a leader like Adam in the Senate,
please don’t hesitate to rush a donation.
But let me tell you why I think we need Adam in the Senate:
On July 25, 2019, as a United States Army lieutenant colonel detailed to
the National Security Council, I witnessed a telephone call between
then-President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
During that call, President Trump pressured President Zelensky to
investigate then-former Vice President Joe Biden as a quid pro quo to
continue receiving United States military aid. I was shocked.
I saw this for what it was: a blatant abuse of power, and political
blackmail to aid President Trump in the 2020 election. As the White
House’s Russia and Ukraine expert I was also disturbed by what Russian
dictator Vladimir Putin might attempt if the United States were no longer
a Ukraine ally and defense partner.
I alerted my superiors and eventually testified before a closed session of
the House Intelligence Committee, on which Rep. Adam Schiff served as
chair.
During the public hearing, I remember one moment vividly. I was asked why
I had the confidence to tell my dad to not worry about retribution for
testifying publicly.
And I remember answering without hesitation, because this is the country
that I have served and defended, and here, right matters. Right matters.
Rep. Schiff did his duty. He conducted a thorough investigation.
Interviewed witnesses. Subpoenaed the relevant information and testimony.
And secured the first bipartisan vote in a Senate impeachment trial to
convict a U.S. president in the history of our country.
Trump and the Republican Party have spent every day since seeking to
punish Adam Schiff for his dutiful oversight — for his fidelity to the
Constitution and the principle of co-equal branches of government, where
the legislative branch provides a check and balance on the executive.
GOP House Speaker Kevin McCarthy removed him from the Intelligence
Committee.
Trump attacks Adam at every MAGA rally he holds.
And their allies in Congress and the media launch relentless attacks
against Adam. To censure him. And to expel him from Congress entirely.
I know what it means to be the target of MAGA Republicans’ retribution.
And it’s more important than ever that we meet their attacks head-on.
That’s why I’m supporting Adam Schiff to represent California in the U.S.
Senate. No matter how hard Trump and his cronies may try, we cannot afford
to lose Adam’s voice in Congress. His leadership in defending our
democracy has been one of the most consequential fights in recent memory.
He needs our help to keep up that fight. [ [link removed] ]So please, if you’re able, I’m

Senate campaign. Let’s stand with him today — chip in now:
