Let’s all have a healthy reminder that GOD is in control and allowing this. If He did not spare His own Son from death to bring forth His proper plan, why do we feel it should not be same for us today? Pilate had the power to free Jesus, but allowed the people their way. Pence is not Pilate, but he sees the problems will only be worse if he does the right thing and is basically “washing his hands” of it just like Pilate did and saying...it’s on you now. Not my fault yourj throwing away the best thing that has come in your lifetimes to save you. So be it...
John 19 NIV
4Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews gathered there, “Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.” 5When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”
6As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!”
But Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.”
7The Jewish leaders insisted, “We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.”
8When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid, 9and he went back inside the palace. “Where do you come from?” he asked Jesus, but Jesus gave him no answer. 10“Do you refuse to speak to me?” Pilate said. “Don’t you realize I have power either to free you or to crucify you?”
11Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”
12From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jewish leaders kept shouting, “If you let this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar.”
13When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge’s seat at a place known as the Stone Pavement (which in Aramaic is Gabbatha). 14It was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about noon.
“Here is your king,” Pilate said to the Jews.
15But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!”
“Shall I crucify your king?” Pilate asked.
“We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered.
16Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.
“I don’t know what anyone expected VP Pence to do.
If the VP could unilaterally reject electoral votes, Joe Biden would have made Hillary Clinton the president in January 2017.”

THIS !!!!
WINNER !!!!
I pray this is correct.
He was a RINO, is a RINO and will always be a RINO. I came to that conclusion when he was Governor of Indiana.
Trump made his own bed bringing the RINO’s like him to be around him in the first place.
And I voted twice for Trump in the General Elections here in PA.
Kicking it back to the states is the appropriate solution
NO VP has that kind of power. He’s a vote counter at best. If he refuses to count votes.....it’s a win.
Stop with the nonsense. The GOP will take the house in two years and Kamala will be impeached.....day one.
Yep. Trump isn’t even acknowledging the international involvement in the theft. The fix is in. Has it been since back when it was set up for the bulk of donations to “fight the steal” were split between the RNC and a Trump-controlled PAC that can do whatever it wants with the funds?
That we have had a rag-tag team of underfunded patriots apparently waging the fight despites hundreds of millions of dollars having been donated to “fight the steal”?
“Exactly, you can’t overturn the will of the people even though its obvious that fraud occurred.”
Amen. See the post right before this one for another time in history the same thing (basically) occurred.....
The expectation is that, if there’s a legitimate process, he avail himself of it whatever it may be. Clearly that doesn’t include overturning a legitimate election. But in the event of a contested election, which we have, there’s a process. Will he execute his duties in that process?
Specifically - send the certification back to the respective states and say ‘fix this’. I do not believe he will based on what I’m seeing today.
No, I’m sure I’ve gotten dumber since 2000. :-P
Pence just called himself a clerk and his role “ceremonial.”
It’s over. America enters darkness.
Thanks to the GOPe betrayal and moronic “Trusty the Plan” BS now America is brought to its knees.
Any patriotic politicians that were in the Republican Party have until the next election (if there ever is one) to find a new party.
Just as I will not vote for anyone from the lying, murdering traitorous Demonicrat Party, I will not vote for anyone with the label of the dead Republican Party. The ballot for an elected office containing only Demonicrat- and Republican-candidates will be left blank.
If he is kicking it back to states, that’s a good thing. Many state legislators wrote letters of urgency for time to address concerns brought by constituents of substantial fraud, irregularities.
No.
I was kind a hoping Iran might pull off something.
I’m sure a lot of people in 1917 and 1933 quoted the bible, we know how well that worked out for them!
Wot, you don’t Trusty the Plan anymore?
Barring insurrection or an Act of God, it’s over.
pence will not accept KNOWN fraudulent elector lists. he will not accept electors when the legislature majorities have since asked to recertify after investigation.
unless he is a traitor to the constitution.
like all the GOP lite... already are.
