National Security Council official Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman and his family are reportedly ready to move to a military base if the Army determines they are in physical danger following Vindmans public impeachment hearing testimony.
Lt. Col. Vindman has already given explosive closed-door testimony about the now-infamous phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that led to the current impeachment inquiry.
But in a sobering development, the Army is concerned for the safety of Vondman and his family once he testifies publicly for the first time Tuesday, according to The Wall Street Journal:
The U.S. Army is prepared to move Col. Vindman and his family onto a military base in the area to ensure their security if it is determined that they are in physical danger, according to U.S. officials.Army security officials in recent weeks conducted a security assessment at Col. Vindmans request, reviewing both his and his familys physical security and their online security, according to U.S. officials.Army security officials have also been monitoring Col. Vindman and his family around the clock to make sure there arent any imminent threats, officials said.The Army will make sure hes safe, and the Army is actively supporting any safety needs as deemed necessary, an official said. Its hard that he has been catapulted into the public eye. He served his country honorably for 20 years, and you can imagine this is a tough situation for him and his family.
