Former special counsel thinks Alexander Vindman will get Gordon Sondland in 'deep, deep legal trouble'
Things aren't looking good for U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, a former special counsel argues.
Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the top Ukraine expert on the National Security Council, will testify Tuesday about his concerns about the Trump administration's interactions with Kyiv. Vindman's opening statement contradicts Sondland's claims that he never discussed former Vice President Joe Biden or his son, Hunter, with any White House or State Department official and that he never encouraged Ukraine to investigate the Bidens over Hunter Biden's ties to Ukrainian gas company, Burisma.
