No, it’s you who is trying to make the White House look like just another government agency where employees have job protection.
Something like this is why ive been against the unitary executive idea for years and years. The whole limited government thing seems to only apply to the legislative and judiciary…
This idea needs to be thrown out to avoid dictatorship.

Why? It’s been in effect for a couple hundred years and hasn’t resulted in a dictatorship. Are you forgetting the Constitution?
You could testify against a president and keep your job. You actually want a dictatorship where retribution for giving testimony is the norm. The unitary executive theory, something republicans have been pushing for as far as i can remember.
Always good to be reminded why i stopped supporting any republican. The support of something or someone only because they make people they dont like suffer.

That post didn’t address you at all, except by your own self-identification with it.
As they saying goes, when you throw a rock into a pack of dogs, the one that yelps is the one you hit.
Thanks for standing up and yelping!

What did you say when Obama fired General McChrystal?

He wasn’t dismissed because he testified, he was dismissed because he was disloyal, he lied, and he demonstrated that he could not be trusted.
In any case, firing staff does not a dictator make. Again, you are apparently forgetting the Constitution.

Maybe it seems that way to you because I’ve been owning you in all the threads you’ve been pestering me in.
A smarter person would stop leading with his chin. Apparently you’re not one of those.
Lol disloyal. Thats the part that makes me think you want a dictatorship. You want a bunch of lackeys, i’d like people that will give testimony when the president does wrong. Trump isnt America

Yes … disloyal. What else would you call someone who disseminated confidential communications to people who had no clearance to have that nformation?

He gave testimony in front of congress. Disloyalty to the president isnt disloyalty to America.

He lied in his testimony. That’s not only disloyal to Americans, it’s illegal.

What evidence do you have to support this claim?
I have seen it made numerous times, but no one has been able to follow through and support it.
I would love to see some evidence suggesting that:
- The information “disseminated” by Vindman was “Confidential”, or otherwise legally protected; and
- The people who he “disseminated” it to did not have the clearance to see it.
So the WH is exempt from following ethics required of other federal government entities?
Ive asked this a few times… not one answer.

Vindman was not the decider of need to know.
