Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) said she’s planning to block every single military promotion unless Secretary of Defense Mark Esper promises that he didn’t or will not block the promotion of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who testified against President Donald Trump in the impeachment inquiry.
Vindman, who at the time sat on the National Security Council, told lawmakers that Trump’s call with Ukraine’s president was “inappropriate.”
