"SNIP.....

“Lt. Col. Alexander S. Vindman is hitting back at the smear campaign against him,” the New York Times reports.

“A lawyer for Colonel Vindman, the National Security Council’s Ukraine expert, sent a warning letter to Fox News on Wednesday seeking a retraction or correction of an October segment hosted by one of the network’s biggest personalities, Laura Ingraham, which baselessly suggested that the colonel, a decorated Iraq war veteran, might be guilty of espionage.”

3. Good on him! K&R

[proud patriot]

4. Good

they need to stop lying about people

[spanone]

5. SUE...NOW

[Maraya1969]

25. THIS! Sue them! Make them pay for their lies.

And sue her personally if that is possible.

[blueinredohio]

30. Exactly what I was thinking

[applegrove]

6. And, if only well off people were attacked by Fox who could afford lawyers,

we could change people's hearts back to being real Americans.

[Maraya1969]

26. Not if they go after Fox's pocketbooks by suing them.

[applegrove]

28. Oh yeah. Litigation laws are different in the USA.

9. Laura Ingraham

[badhair77]

10. Good. Put them on guard. They get away with so much nonsense.

[Pacifist Patriot]

11. A retraction/correction is the very least of what they should do.

But we know what passes for integrity around there.

[Perseus]

12. Wasn't the lawyer for GW (John Yoo) "the torture lawyer" in that segment as well?

That guy needs to be kicked out of his teaching job and maybe disbarred. For a lawyer to make those allegations in public is wrong and unethical.

[Evolve Dammit]

13. Sue their vile asses. Pretty sure someone would do it pro bono.

[dchill]

14. K&R.

[AllyCat]

15. Man I hate Fox.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

16. Fux phonies

A station full of chickenhawks.

[patphil]

18. Laura Ingraham...pathetic!

She is right, far far right, in her characterization of Vindman as guilty of espionage.
About as right as she can be.
But, she is totally incorrect in her assessment.
Vindman is a national hero; a template for anyone aspiring to be a career officer in the US military.
The far right has abandoned all pretense of acting in the interests of the nation.
They only serve themselves.
They only act out of self-serving, f**k the county, personal interests.
They are the pretenders to the concept of patriotism.
They have no interest in the true needs of the nation, only in their own narrow, selfish view that their way is the only way and f**k anyone who is not totally on their side.

She is pathetic.
