which truth are you refering to?
On page 316, Vindman claims that Trump "demanded" investigations from Zelenskiy in return for military aid, but that's Vindman's opinion, not fact. He admitted that the actual words spoken during the call don't support that claim: "I think people want to hear, you know, what they have as already preconceived notions." Vindman's damning admission is found on page 256 of the transcript.

"Damning admission" doesn't ring all that BOxlish.

https://townhall.com/columnists/betsymccaughey/2019/11/18/vindmans-claims-dont-hold-up-n2556671Opinion piece from Betsy McCaughey, the former Republican Lt. Governor of NY. To get a feel for what she's like, I offer the below. The Democrats want impeachment to disgrace President Donald Trump "for life" and tilt the 2020 election. Not if Senator Lindsey Graham has his way. Graham is proposing post-impeachment investigations by the Senate to "get to the bottom" of the Democrats' impeachment hoax. That will pin the disgrace where it belongs — on the party that dragged the nation through an unwarranted ordeal.
Meanwhile, Vice President Pence is urging the country to "acquit and move on." The Washington Post reports many Republican Senators feel the same.
Not so fast. It's not time to move on. These Senate investigations will be essential both to uncover House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff's intrigue in engineering the whistleblower complaint and to expose the solid reasons Trump had for asking the president of Ukraine to help the U.S. investigate the Bidens. https://www.creators.com/read/betsy-mccaugheyIn short, the source of the quote is a RWN.

Nice try.
Your post. On page 316, Vindman claims that Trump "demanded" investigations from Zelenskiy in return for military aid, but that's Vindman's opinion, not fact. He admitted that the actual words spoken during the call don't support that claim: "I think people want to hear, you know, what they have as already preconceived notions." Vindman's damning admission is found on page 256 of the transcript. RWN Opinion piece from link I provided. On page 316, Vindman claims that Trump "demanded" investigations from Zelenskiy in return for military aid, but that's Vindman's opinion, not fact. He admitted that the actual words spoken during the call don't support that claim: "I think people want to hear, you know, what they have as already preconceived notions." Vindman's damning admission is found on page 256 of the transcript. Eerily similar, no?

I hate to break it to you, but from Oakland this afternoon it seems pretty certain that the sun is going to set in the west later today.

Maybe not, but if he so desperately wants to be seen as such, why shouldn't he be despised as such?

I was talking about the CHARACTERIZATION OF Vindemans quote, not the quote itself.
The TWO WORDS I quoted from your post were:
1) Outside the quote marks delimiting the words attributed to him, and
2) Hardly something anyone would call their own words. When did you last talk about anything you had said as a "damning admission"?
