Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman is a name that might not be familiar to you, and if not for the ongoing impeachment inquiry in the House, we may never have known him. That would be our loss, because on Tuesday morning he gave an eloquent opening statement that expresses with great poignancy the positive side of being an immigrant—a side that is all too easy to forget in light of our recent nightmares.
With that knowledge in mind, watch the end of Vindman’s opening statement from Tuesday morning, in which he reckons with the difference between his own situation, and what that might look like in the Soviet Union, and concludes with a message to his father: Lt. Colonel Vindman:"Do not worry, I will be fine for telling the truth." We need everyone who knows about Trump's abuses of power to come forward and tell the truth. Everyday Trump lies to America and the world. We need more people telling the truth.
