Wenstrup is picking up on the chain of command left by Turner to continue with character assassination.

Wenstrup tries to put words in VIndman's mouth and steamroll Vindman's attempts to correct these inaccuracies. Schiff steps in.
Edited because I am reading the wrong name placard.

GOP is really getting comfortable attacking Vindman and trying to paint him as a villain, huh? I'm really taken aback by this.

Speier: It is not "going outside the chain of command" to speak to a lawyer, is it? Vindman: No

Speier asks if either of them have seen any sort of pushback or reprisal for their testimony
Vindman says that he has noticed being excluded from meetings that someone in his role would normally attend, but he doesn't assign motive to that

What's amazing is that nothing about Vindman's testimony is particularly damning about the president specifically and yet the Gop have decided it is imperative that they attack him

Stewart: Do you always insist on civilians addressing you by your rank? vindman: no but i'm in uniform and it's important, and I've been attacked in the press and on Twitter, and would like some respect as a military officer

I'm late to the party (my five day old decided to let me get a block of 3 hours of sleep last night) but I appreciate the thread because it helped me get up to speed quickly.

If that was Stewart's attempt to clean up Nunes' disrespect toward the witness it was a total failure

Also, I'd have to check transcript because I was driving, but I thought Nunes also called him Private.

Good for him. Vindman corrected Nunes when he addressed him as "Mr" instead of his (hard earned) rank Stewart just scolded him for that 🙄 No, he earned that and touting his own family's service Stewart should know that too. I just cannot with the Rs

This is ludicrous bc Vindman didn't couch the "favor" interpretation in his military interpretation, he said THE DISPARITY OF POWER BETWEEN THE TWO PRESIDENTS INFLUENCES THE INTERPRETATION.
Kind of like how a subordinate can't consent to a relationship with his or her employer. There's a power dynamic.
