Hello August,

Prerogative?  To fire anyone he wants, even without due
cause or reason?  People who have been compelled to testify
due to having been subpoenaed would be violating the law by
refusing to testify.  Lying to Congress while under oath is
also violating the law.  None of those who were subpoenaed
and testified violated the law.  So why were they fired?

Vindman's brother was not subpoenaed.  He was never compelled
to testify.  And never volunteered to testify.  He just did his
job, never testifying at all.  Why was he fired?

>DS>He not only removed them, he essentially perp walked one

>We'll never know the "full" story.

We know the president is a pathological liar.
We know he has blocked the testimony of several
people in his administration who were involved
in the Ukraine scandal from testifying.  We know
the president and his men are involved in a cover
up, keeping the facts from being brought to light.
We know the president is a crook, along with many
others in his administration.

How many lies does a president have to tell before
he/she is removed from office?  Apparently this president
can do whatever he wants, including shooting someone in
cold blood on 5th Avenue, and get away with it.

>We only get the version that the media wants to feed the public.

We get the version that Trump wants to feed the public.

>DS>Not only that he resorts to making up derogatory names for anyone
>DS>who has the backbone to not agree with him.

The Orange One *is* a politician, having engaged in one election.
With help from Russia.  Which makes him an illegitimate president.
