Pence says ‘history will hold Donald Trump accountable’ for Jan. 6th
Washington Post ^ | March 11, 2023 | Ben Terris

Posted on 03/11/2023 9:42:05 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

In a speech Saturday night, former vice president Mike Pence delivered what amounted to his strongest rebuke of Donald Trump, criticizing the former president for his role in the lead-up to the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol as well as attempts to rewrite the history of that day.

“President Trump was wrong,” Pence said. “I had no right to overturn the election. And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day. And I know that history will hold Donald Trump accountable.”

The former vice president was speaking at the Gridiron dinner, a white-tie event thrown by journalists in Washington, D.C. that this year featured speeches by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy in addition to Pence. The annual event tends to be a lighthearted affair, with skits and parody songs performed by members of the Washington press corps.

There were nobody else but the RINOs to pick, and there were RINOs in the Senate who had the power to confirm or deny. Reagan faced the same problem.

That was Belshazzar, JFTR, right before the Persians attacked. There was a price to pay for abusing the vessels from the First Temple . . .

No, but it’s rewritten by them. There’s a big difference between the history I learned in high school and the “history” taught there today. The pendulum still will swing the other way.

He knows that he was never in danger. I’m beginning to think he was in on it.


first statement you made WAS straight out FACT ...
and the second one ellicits a LOL... Of COURSE he was in on it.

fwiw.. I have no doubt that the deep state has “serious or grave komprimat” on him... or people cares about.

you don’t have a career in politics from your “earliest” days.. unless they know you will back down on what they have in your docia...

I am thinking a dead girl or a live boy type of stuff...
anyone who preens their moral rectitude around other moral preeners... is compensating for something. FEAUX humility notwithstanding.

a person should be morally upright without playing the “I am holy card... afterall, I wont even talk to a woman without witnesses in the room...” Ir might seem to be a good idea... but ultimately our concern may not just be involvement with women, or boyz, or drugs, or money scams...

Someone with truly unimpeachable character is very hard to find... I always remember, the powers that be, IMPEACHED falsely the character and life of the Lord Savior.... to the point of His false and public humiliation-crucifixion.

because he WAS morally unimpeachable... his resurrection was guaranteed... after only three days.

trump has been very clear about his sordid past. His current state of being is that he is less of a cad then he was as a millionaire single, separated or divorced playboy... he still has a mouth on him... which I think most of us like. He is not actually “discreet.” about where he has “sinned” and where he has changed his ways, not at all shy about it.

I think Trump’s ultimate positive impact on our generation and culture will resurrect into something longer lasting and more powerful... I think the sanctimonious twins, pence and de-sanctimonious will experience their own uniquely engineered by God “judas in the potter’s field” experiences politically... and that grieves us all...

but there IS a pattern for the judas types.
Pence is toast.UNLESShe practices some of that pseudo feaux humility and publicly repents... “I did not do my duty as Veep and I improperly certified a stolen election... “

therein lies the path to Pence’s redemption... politically for his former supporters, and I think eternally.

though Judas died... Peter did repent... and the rest is Church history. so did Saul the Christian murderer who Christ called to write much of the New Testament doctrine we have today.

Pence needs to humble himself and repent. In Public.

Weirdly trump picked those RINOs for his administration. Personally picked every one of them.

That is not true.   President Trump was forced to nominate those who would be confirmed by Congress.   Congress was against President Trump from the start.

Just try to imagine if Hillary Clinton had claimed her election was stolen, and Joe Biden was going to throw the electoral college into unprecedented chaos in the way that Trump was pressing Pence to interfere.

In your imagined reverse circumstance, Hillary would have been the liar and President Trump is not.   Facts matter!

Try not to get your brain wrapped around the axle so often.

I don’t see a flaw in your reasoning.

It looks like you’re on the right track.

You are right, sorry. I confused my Belshazzar with my Nebuchadnezzar.

It happens.
