Former Vice President Mike Pence said Wednesday he would give “due consideration” to any formal invitation to testify before the House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol, while hinting at potential executive privilege issues.
Pence made the remarks during a Q&A after a speech here at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics’ “Politics & Eggs” breakfast, a common stop for candidates considering a run for office.
“If there was an invitation to participate, I would consider it,” Pence said, after calling January 6 a tragic day for all Americans. “But, you heard me mention the Constitution a few times this morning. Under the Constitution, we have three co-equal branches of government, and any invitation to be directed to me, I would have to reflect on the unique role I was serving in as vice president.

I never trusted the guy. To me Pence was always VP Bush II. Maybe a GOOD reason why Trump didn’t get in on 2020. We didn’t need another VP Bush presidency with Pence in 2024.
He can’t even secure his endorsement for candidates.
Mike is irrelevant to me.
Trump’s best persons in mind ..... wanted NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS!
Quit blaming the raped girl for wearing a short skirt.
Focus on the wrongdoer.
In this case it was idiot Marc Short and the lawyers who sat Judas Pence down and warned him to give up Trump, or else. .
Hey Mike, how ‘bout the J7 and J8 committees. Would you be willing to shoot your mouth off to them also?
“Mike is irrelevant to me.”
He is irrelevant to everyone. The problem is that he hasn’t realized that yet. He’s living in a fool’s paradise.
Maybe he wants to confirm his aide’s story about President Trump reading classified documents in the ladie’s room.
Pence wanted the nom in 16
It was indeed at the behest of GOP beltway insiders to “balance” the ticket. Rove and Hayes pressed for him.
Social conservative didn’t trust Trump. Now with row no longer pressing the social conservatives don’t force people to take crazies.
Pence. He stinks almost as bad as Zelensky.
For a mere 30 pieces of Silver....
He didn't 'get in' because they flooded the polls with illegitimate ballots and rigged the counting. Sheesh!
He stabbed Trump in the back. And now may lie. Are these people sworn under oath before they are questioned.
Another evil looking fake. He’s just ruined any chance of anything.
Religious fence sitters
OK, let’s put it this way for the thicker-headed of us.
Pence may be the reason GOD allowed 2020 to happen.
Keep it up. Maybe you can steal the nomination from BIDEN.
low level algae slime
what a pretender to “ the throne”
Pence smells a pile of attention, albeit negative, and he is desperate to get him some. Only way anyone would look his way. Certainly not on any of his merits, since he has NONE. Worthless traitor. Even buzzards would choke on him.
Oh go back to sucking lemons you little mouse.......you’re NOT wanted in ANY capacity in the new MAGA movement. It’s big and you and your fellow back stabbers ain’t invited to join.
