Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Twitchy.com: “'Sheer CONTEMPT for members of Congress': Byron York breaks down Vindman's transcript making Schiff look even dirtier”. Below is an excerpt from the article.
Vindman’s transcript has something like 300+ pages so luckily Byron York was good enough to pull out the important pieces and tweet about them so those of us who have no idea what’s going on most days (ahem, guilty) can actually follow along.
And if this series of tweets is any indication, Vindman’s testimony isn’t nearly as damning as the media has claimed it to be.
Many have expressed suspicion about WH rough transcript of Trump-Zelensky call. Vindman believed it should have included word 'Burisma,' but overall called it 'very accurate': pic.twitter.com/MWq2qYIqqM
Vindman insisted Trump request to Zelensky constituted a 'demand.' Then GOP counsel asked… pic.twitter.com/46iUebdu4q
Republicans tried and tried and tried to find out who, beyond top NSC lawyer, Vindman talked to about the Trump-Zelensky phone call. Vindman and Dems blocked repeatedly. Would get into 'sources and methods.' pic.twitter.com/Nxdcyt4dig

Lt. Col. Vindman's lawyer, Michael Volkov, does not hesitate to tell members of Congress what they may and may not do. From the Vindman deposition: pic.twitter.com/YSLiLTckG2

Should be noted that the only way Vindman and his attorney can get away with the sheer contempt they show for members of Congress is because Chairman Schiff approves. From the transcript: pic.twitter.com/tjHdvKJyDv

It is all a dog and pony show.

Should we assume this is how Schiff, the Democrats, Vindman and his attorney will behave during public testimony as well?

Relax. This circus will be coming to the Senate soon and it's going to be fun to watch.

What boggles my mind is that a witness' atty has ANY authority in ANY proceeding. An atty may counsel the client to refuse to answer a ?, but that's it. The presiding authority has the power to compel an answer or not.
