Tell you what, boys, we'll give you a hundred yard start

The Vindman brothers have, at long last, definitely worn out their welcome: "Alex Vindman and His Twin Brother Escorted Off White House Grounds Friday Afternoon, Dismissed From NSC Jobs" (H/T: friend and commenter, Bruce).

I was kind of hoping these two clowns would be stood in a hollow square and have their buttons snipped off (alternatively, they could have each been fed just one more donut, and the buttons would probably have popped off on their own).

I see that Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland has been roundfiled, too.

Now if we can only get rid of, say, FBI Director Chris Wray...

Haw!

Any wagers House Democrats call for impeachment over this?

I think one or more of the donks are already calling for an investigation.

Honestly, right now the Democrats are so barking mad I believe if they were informed that President Trump had tossed an Eskimo Pie wrapper on the ground they'd see it as grounds for impeachment.

They just reminded me of old Soviet infiltrators, but in plain sight, as if these days undermining the country is a good thing - for some.

The Vindmanns may be out of the NSC, but they'll be reassigned elsewhere. The real upside to this is, unless they get commentator jobs at CNN, their chances of advancement are basically dead.

You are correct, Rebecca. I expect that they will be given a slot somewhere, doing mundane work until they are eligible for retirement.

Which should be at any time, if Wikipedia is correct, and assuming that both brothers graduated from West Point together (1999). I expect that they had their retirement papers already filled out, except for the date.
