CHRISTIAN WHITON: You see Vindman, this bureaucrat who poured himself into an Army outfit to go and frankly speak contemptuous things against the commander-in-chief, incidentally, a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

If you did that as a private in the Army you would get court martialed. I guess if you're, you know, a never-Trump bureaucrat deep state crybaby you get away with it.

But it's a reminder, you know, Vindman was not a political appointee, the woman from the vice president's office not a political appointee.

This is the way the deep state works, they take detailees, not the best from these agencies, often the worst, they stick them into the White House. It's a practice that frankly should end, and the political appointees, Tim Morrison and Volker aren't mistaking themselves for the president, it's these deep state bureaucrats that do.
