Also last year the NYT claimed that “We Should Thank Mike Pence for His Courage on Jan. 6”
The Atlantic Magazine claimed that Congress should honor Mike Pence and name any D.C. building in Pence’s honor.
Esquire magazine too seemed to join the Pence fan club.
A CNN contributor who was caught in an act of self-gratification on a Zoom call crossed further limits of decorum by comparing Pence to Harrison Ford i.e. implying that Pence is a solitary force of bravery and morality.
I never thought of Mike Pence as a Harrison Ford type, but he sure sounded like one in the description of the hearing today. #January6thHearings — Jeffrey Toobin (@JeffreyToobin) June 16, 2022
‘Republican’ Liz Cheney branded Pence a hero, and so did Democrat Jamie Raskin.
Why?
Obviously, because he is pushing the January 6th 'deadly insurrection' narrative and blaming President Trump for it.
It must be remembered that as Vice President, Pence wasn’t actually averse to the swamp.
It was Mike Pence as Vice President who complained about of Trump’s first National Security Adviser Michael Flynn lying to him about his contacts with the Russians which led to Flynn’s firing. Flynn was among those who had pledged to drain the swamp, so with Flynn gone weeks after Trump was inaugurated the possibility of reforming national security agencies reduced.
Pence was in charge of the COVID-19 response that allowed Fauci and others to hijack the proceedings.
Even after leaving office, Pence’s conduct was suspicious.
Weeks after the news of the discovery of classified documents at Joe Biden’s offices and homes caused headlines, Pence’s lawyer discovered a dozen documents marked as classified at Pence’s Indiana residence. Pence’s lawyer volunteered this information to the appropriate agencies and the news appeared in the media. Was this a move by Pence to make Biden’s mishandling of documents seem like business as usual? One could wonder why Pence’s lawyers did not undertake a similar search for classified documents at Pence’s home when Trump’s home was raided.
So, what has Pence been up recently?
Last Saturday, Pence attended the annual Gridiron Club dinner, which is an event of, by, and for the D.C. Establishment, where he said the following
“History will hold Donald Trump accountable for Jan. 6.
Pence isn’t tagging along with any other faction. I believe he is simmply giving his own principled opinions which happen to be out of the Republican mainstream.
Pence was an establishment conservative that Trump picked in order to get votes that he might not have gotten otherwise.
“It’s hard to say if Pence a useful idiot for the Democrats or if he was an establishment Republican pretending to be a MAGA Republican”
Naaa...he’s just a spinless pussy.
I know I’m done with him.
I’m split down the middle on this one. No, he isn’t useful. And yes—he’s an idiot.
Both.
3 years ago today Trump addressed the nation March 16. Travel restrictions, no attendance of events with 10 or more people, no eating in restaurants. Etc.
as president, he violated the bill of rights.
He took your rghts and to be sure it is permanent.. he gave them mail in ballots and attacked 2A with his bumpstock ban.
He was ALWAYS a deep state rat. Trump has to STOP placing back stabbers into his inner circle - including Kushner, Pence, Christie and Omarosa.
He’s an establishment republican. So is the leadership of both houses of congress.
I wouldn’t vote for Mike Pence if he was the last man standing. Another RINO fraud pushed onto Trump like Bush was pushed on Ronald Reagan.
The Fly knew.
I’m sure there’s photos of a dead girl or a live boy with the good Senator Pence that the FBI/NSA/CIA have....
He’s as useless as Trey Gowdy was... all of them are just playing the tax payers for the bite of the money apple that grows in DC
F@#k them all....
