Megathread: LTC Alexander Vindman Fired From the White House

The White House on Friday fired LTC Alexander S. Vindman, whose testimony in the House impeachment hearings infuriated President Trump and his allies, escorting him out of the complex just days after the Senate trial ended in acquittal, his lawyer said.

Colonel Vindman’s twin brother, Yevgeny Vindman, also an Army lieutenant colonel who worked at the White House, was fired as well and escorted out at the same time, according to two people briefed on the developments.

Geopolitics is focused on the relationship between politics and territory. Through geopolitics we attempt to analyze and predict the actions and decisions of nations, or other forms of political power, by means of their geographical characteristics and location in the world. In a broader sense, geopolitics studies the general relations between countries on a global scale. Here we analyze local events in terms of the bigger, global picture.

  • Conservative Cancel Culture in the US, 1950-present. Everything from the red scare, to Alexander Vindman and Colin Kaepernick. People's opinions evolve throughout their lives, should be allowed to grow and no one wants to live in a cult-like world without redemption. People should be kind, level headed and receptive to new ideas. At the same time, people don't have to listen to you if they don't want to. The right cancels a lot, contrary to their claims, here we refresh everyone's memory. members
