Many commenting on how “the Pentagon” or “the generals” should speak out on the Vindman issue.

They won’t & they shouldn’t. The actions show disrespect to the military & this soldier, but they are not illegal.

But the actions are indication of the toxic leadership that exists
I suspect LTC Vindman, as a foreign area officer (FAO), will be assigned to Joint Staff or the Army Staff. I also suspect both the Chairman of the JCS & the Army Chief have already talked with him, telling him to report if he experiences any negative action.
LTC Vindman is a Ukr/RU expert & his expertise is needed. He will also be visible as he walks the rings of the Pentagon, so he will experience support & he will experience negativity. The latter is unfortunate, as Vindman did his duty. He will have to gain strength from that.
Those who won’t gain strength? Those Senators who claimed POTUS “learned his lesson.” He didn’t. He’s only become more brazen in his toxicity.
