The Senate Majority Leader said it is 'way too early' to say how the Senate 'might handle impeachment.'
"This is the country I have served and defended, that all of my brothers have served and here, right matters," Vindman, who came to the U.S. as a child, said, as the crowd broke out into applause.Despite Vindman's proclaimed dedication to his country, Republicans had repeatedly sought to question his credibility and suggest that he could have ulterior motives for testifying against Trump.
to his GOP House colleagues suggesting that Vindman could have been part of an effort to remove the president from office, without presenting any evidence. "A significant number of bureaucrats and staff members within the executive branch have never accepted President Trump as legitimate and resent his unorthodox style and his intrusion onto their 'turf,'" the Republican said,"They react by leaking to the press and participating in the ongoing effort to sabotage his policies and, if possible, remove him from office. It is entirely possible that Vindman fits this profile," Johnson wrote.
If Trump were removed from office, he would be the first president to be removed through impeachment proceedings.
