Transcript Shows Vindman, Schiff Repeatedly Obstructed Questions About Classified Leaks
The transcript of the deposition between Lt. Alexander Vindman and the Select Committee on Intelligence, Committee on Oversight and Reform, and Committee on Foreign Affairs shows how desperate Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and his staff are to prevent witnesses from answering certain questions.
In reference to the call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, asked Vindman if he discussed the phone call with anyone after it took place.
“Who else did you talk to following the July 25 call?” Jordan asked.
Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., Schiff, and Vindman’s criminal defense attorney immediately jumped in to ensure Vindman didn’t answer the question.
Vindman's criminal defense attorney was at his most obstructive regarding two key questions: did Vindman deliberately work to undermine the policy of the Commander-in-Chief, and did he have any conversations about Trump's classified phone call outside the chain of command?

US Customs Officials Seize Millions Worth of Counterfeit Purses from China
According to a Nov. 8 press release from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the items, found in an air cargo shipment arriving at Washington Dulles International Airport on Sept. 25 from China, were detained by officials after they suspected that it could contain counterfeit goods.
Officials found 2,601 coin purses, 459 purses, and three backpacks, adorned with logos of international brands Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Dior, Prada, and Hermes.

If all of these goods were authentic, they would have an estimated street value of about $2.24 million.

10 Facts That Will Make You Believe Jeffrey Epstein Was Murdered
To men in power, Jeffrey Epstein was incredibly dangerous. He’d been a pimp supplying child prostitutes to the wealthy elite, and he’d been caught. He knew things that could bring down some of the most powerful people on earth.
He was tied to princes, presidents, and multiple billionaires. He’d been spotted at parties with with some of the biggest names imaginable. If he’d shared everything he knew, there’s no telling how many people could have been taken down.
And then, suddenly, he died. Under constant watch in a maximum security prison, Jeffrey Epstein’s life in ended in what’s officially been called a “suicide”. And somehow, nobody saw it happen.At a glance, it sounds a little suspicious. And when you look into the details, it just gets worse.
Epstein appears in court
On July 23rd, Jeffrey Epstein was found in his cell, unresponsive, with injuries around his neck. According to the official report, he had hanged himself—but many weren’t convinced. Epstein’s “attempted suicide”, some believed, was really an attack.Sound like a familiar story? It’s not the one you think. Epstein didn’t die until Aug. 10th. But less than three weeks before his death, he was found in nearly the exact same state.Just like on Aug. 10th, he was unconscious and badly wounded. And, just like they would on Aug. 10th, his guards claimed that he’d tried to kill himself. The only difference was that, on July 23rd, Epstein survived. He could tell his own side of the story.Epstein denied that he’d ever attempted suicide. Instead, he claimed that he’d been beaten half-way to death by his cellmate, a former police officer named Nicholas Tartaglione.[1]His Defense Attorney, David Schoen, still insists: “It was not a suicide attempt.”“He was afraid he would face consequences if he implicated anyone,” Schoen says,[2] “so he kept his mouth shut and told investigators he couldn’t remember what happened.”
Jeffrey Epstein and attacker Tartaglione
Prison officials claim that Tartaglione was cleared of any wrongdoing in the July 23rd incident through an internal investigation—but if they did conduct an investigation, it couldn’t have been a particularly thorough one. Tartaglione himself says that he was “has not been questioned by any law enforcement official since July 23rd.”[3]Tartagoline denies ever having hurt Epstein. He says that he found Epstein lying in the fetal position, unconscious, on the ground, and helped him. The accusations against him, he says, were cooked up by guards who were tired of him complaining about the conditions in the prison.But he also claims that guards have told him to “shut up” about Epstein and not to talk to the press.“The clear message Mr. Tartaglione has received is that if he conveys information about the facility or about [Epstein’s] recent suicide, there will be a price to pay,” his lawyer claims.[4]“The correction officers know he has information [that is] potentially very damaging.”
Epstein suicide watch jail cell
Epstein was taken off suicide watch just 12 days before his death.[5]He was put on watch in late July—most likely on July 23, after he was found injured in what guards claimed was an attempted suicide. And, if he’d stayed on suicide watch, there’s almost chance he would have died.Prisoners on suicide watch are put under constant observation. They’re kept in a special cell that gives the staff an unobstructed view of everything the prisoner does, and they’re given daily evaluations by psychologists.Whether he was suicidal or not, many experts agree that keeping Epstein under constant watch was just a good precaution. “I would have a staff member sitting there or have a camera on him 24/7 while he was in my custody,” one former warden told NBC, “purely to cover my butt.”[6]Epstein, however, was taken off suicide watch after just 6 days of observation.His psychiatrist, after interviewing him, said that suicide watch was not warranted. That’s a sentiment shared by those who saw him in his final days, who have consistently describe him as “very very upbeat”[7] and “not … suicidal.”[8]Epstein was returned to a normal cell with a new cellmate.He died less than two weeks later.
August 9th was the last day of Jeffrey Epstein’s life.It was also the day a federal court released thousands of pages of sealed records on Epstein’s case. The names of men accused of being Epstein’s clients were exposed, with some of the names of the most powerful men in the world inside.“A lot of important people are going to have a really bad weekend,” one article[9] quipped.Even though Epstein was no longer on suicide watch, he was supposed to still be supposed to be under constant surveillance. But hours before his suicide—and right afer the court documents were released—his cellmate was suddenly transferred.No one was assigned to replace him. A man who was on suicide watch just days ago was left completely alone.No explanation for the transfer has been given. Investigators say they are still investigating why Epstein was left alone.[10]
Epstein's empty prison cell
Jeffrey Epstein wasn’t supposed to be left alone, and his guards knew it.There were orders to keep camera surveillance on him at all times, to check on him every 30 minutes, and never to leave him alone in his cell for even a second. But on the night he died,[11] every single one of those rules were broken.Not only had Epstein’s cellmate been transferred out, leaving him alone in his cell, but the guards weren’t even checking in on him.On the night Epstein died, the prison was short-staffed. Only 10 of the 18 people who were supposed to be on duty had shown up to work, and the two men in charge of monitoring him were both working overtime.Allegedly, both men fell asleep and didn’t bother checking in on him for a full three hours. And they falsified the logs to claim that they’d been doing their duty.[12]Even then, there were two separate cameras that should have caught anything happening in Epstein’s cell—and both simultaneously malfunctioned on the night he died.[13]

Statue of Ronald Reagan is unveiled at the site of his famous Berlin Wall speech as city prepares to celebrate 30 years since it came down
 |
| US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Foundation Chairman Fred Ryan unveil a statue of the former president at the US Embassy in Berlin |
- Saturday will mark the 30th anniversary of fall of Berlin Wall in November 9, 1989
- Mr Reagan made a speech urging the Soviet Union to remove it on June 12, 1987
- The most well-known part came at roughly 12 minutes into his 26-minute speech
- He said 'Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall' urging the general secretary to act
The former US president visited the city on June 12, 1987 where he challenged Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to go further with the reforms he was instituting.
In a speech in front of the Brandenburg Gate, which was just on the East German side of the Wall, Mr Reagan said that peace and prosperity would only come from demolishing the wall.
Just two years later, on November 9, 1989, the East German government opened the country’s borders with West Germany, and openings were made in the Berlin Wall. It was demolished over the next few years.
Today, US secretary of state Mike Pompeo unveiled a statue in Mr Reagan's honour, calling it a 'monumental moment' before helping remove its cover on the embassy's terrace, at eye-level with the top of the Brandenburg Gate.
It comes as the city prepares to celebrate 30 years since the wall came down on November 9, 1989. The guarded concrete barrier physically and ideologically divided the German city from 1961 to 1989.
The most well-known part of Reagan's oratory came at roughly 12 minutes into his...
