Wow! Mike Pence announces on New Year’s Eve that he no longer plans to pursue career in politics!
Guess all those who said he is an egomaniac wolf in sheep’s clothing focused on a run in 2024 were wrong.
Good call, Mike. You are not fit to be President anyway.

“He is a good man”
Time will tell. January 6, 2021 will tell.
Absolute truth... Except the platforms to play armchair patriot are going to be deplatformed, So even that will not be an option.
*** Ping to you who said Pence was Deep State. Interesting. ***
Some of those I think are DS probably lack fealty and fortitude... collaborators who want to save their own skin.
They are still enemies of what the USA should be.
what if he has had enough of trumps ego bs..? What if Trump is using us to upend the constitution, where is the real proof...poof for a long time..I’m still in the fight but have a wary eye..its getting tooopid, is it, isn’t it..
It’s B. He knows that the 74 million who voted for Trump will never vote for him if he sticks a knife in Trump’s back. And that’s exactly what he’s going to do on Jan. 6. He and McConnell are old buddies. He’s going to take his orders from McConnell, not Trump. Count on it.
Our republic will be saved! Thank you!
IF Biden IS certified-—Katie won’t be able to bar the door-—Trump supporters will tear it down.
The Art of War summary
This is my book summary of The Art of War by Sun Tzu. My notes are informal and often contain quotes from the book as well as my own thoughts. This summary also includes key lessons and important passages from the book.
“According as circumstances are favorable, one should modify one’s plans.”
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence when able to attack we must seem unable. When using our forces we must seem inactive. When we are near we make the enemy believe we are far away. When far away we must make the enemy believe we are near.”
“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.”
“If he is superior in strength, evade him.”
“Attack him where he is unprepared. Appear where you are not expected.”
“The general who loses a battle makes but few calculations beforehand.”
“There is no instance of a country having benefitted from prolonged warfare.”
“A wise general makes a point of foraging on the enemy. One cartload of the enemy’s provisions is equivalent to twenty of one’s own.”
“Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting.”
“The worst strategy of all is to besiege walled cities.”
“There are five essentials for victory: He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight. He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces. He will win who’s army is animated by the same spirit throughout all it’s ranks. He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared. He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign.”
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself, but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
“One may know how to conquer without being able to do it.”
“In war, the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won.”
“In battle, there are not more than two methods of attack: the direct and indirect.”
“An army may march great distances without distress if it marches through country where the enemy is not.”
“You can be sure in succeeding in your attacks if you only attack places which are undefended.”
“Military tactics are like water. For water, in its natural course, runs away from high places and hastens downwards. So, in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and strike at what is weak.”
“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move fall like a thunderbolt.”
“Ponder and deliberate before you make a move.”
“A clever general, therefore, avoids an army when its spirit is keen, but attacks it when it is sluggish and inclined to return.”
“It is a military axiom not to advance uphill against the enemy nor to oppose him when he comes downhill.”
“The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy not coming, but on our readiness to receive him.”
“Make your way by unexpected routes and attack unguarded spots.”
“If they will face death, there is nothing they will not achieve.”
“The principle on which to manage an army is to set up one standard of courage which all must reach.”
“If it is to your advantage, make a forward move. If not, stay where you are.”
We shall see.
I think Pence is a good guy. I think Lin Wood is a good guy.
Pence is done either way. If he does the right thing regarding the election, considering the amount of corruption in DC, he will be a pariah. The only way that doesn’t happen is if they all end up in prison.
If he bows to the corruption and doesn’t do the right thing he’s also done. Approximately 80 million people will never support or forgive him.
At this point in VP Pence’s life I would hardly call it pursuing a career in politics. In all probability his career reached its Apex and why continue the “pursuit”, but if that’s what he wants to call it... But it really isn’t a pursuit at this stage in his life. Is it?
“...trumps ego bs.” ??
You are obviously a sucker for every bs meme the fake news offers up.
Hint: There is nothing wrong with President Trump’s ego. The Left used to admire him before he chose to fight the globalists.
Christianity does not exist without people of conscience.
Politics is a hard fought game and it is a special person that can successfully navigate it.
Christians can and should be politicians for a term or two, but certainly not for life .... as too many politicians have become, because the relationship with Jesus is tested and strained by the higher percentage of politician people motivated by and for evil.
We have been blessed to be witness to a Presidential term of great success and lack of "evil intent"
President Trump has been a strong and moral leader in a twisted and immoral world .... and a Christian like Mike Pence has had his strength tested and understandably would like to enjoy his elder years without the pressure of a job.
Every retiree knows the joy of getting up and not "having to go to work"
Thank you, Vice President Pence
People like you write just the stupidest crap.
People who went on vacation are traitors. Shithead kooks who are trying to deliver the senate to the democrats are heroes.
Because in your warped mind that makes sense.
Now along with a GOP senate, Mike Pence is the enemy? Because Lin Nothingburger said so?
Forget it.

Bingo.
It is well written.
I never understood why Gohmert filed in the first place. Gohmert's suit most likely will get kicked for lack of standing.
You don’t know me at all. I post worthy news stories, just like every FR, and I will continue to do so. You don’t like my posts, don’t click on them. Additionally, you are an agitated liar. I am a WOMAN of God who has served her country for over 33 years. You don’t like me, a person whom you have never met, says a lot about your heart and character.
George Jones old song. “Its Crying Time Again” will be popular again. Along with the judas goats are full of shit, when they learn that there will be no 2022 do over.
