Former Vice President Mike Pence blasted former President Trump on Monday for embracing the position that abortion policy should be determined by states and avoiding taking a stance on whether the federal government should enforce a national ban at a certain cutoff point. In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Pence — who was Trump’s running mate in 2016 and 2020 —said Trump’s newly announced position on abortion was a “slap in the face” to opponents of abortion rights who voted for their ticket. “President Trump’s retreat on the Right to Life is a slap in the face to the...

[Catholic Caucus] Is There Really Hope for JudasThese last few Maundy Thursdays, my feed has been populated by various musings presenting Judas as a pitiable figure who may not be in hell after all. I thought it rather diabolical that a day of sympathy for our Lord is now turning into a day of sympathy for His betrayer. But as I considered this transformation or, rather, deformation, I saw that sympathy for Judas is about far more. It is about the redefinition of divine mercy. This year’s reconsideration of Judas was sparked at least in part by an article at...

One of the most common questions in Christianity is, did Judas go to Heaven or Hell? There are clear indications from Scripture that Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus is burning in Hell right now. He was never saved and even though he was remorseful before he committed suicide he never repented. God didn’t make Judas Iscariot betray Jesus, but he knew he was going to do it. Remember there are some Christians who aren’t really Christians and there are pastors who just use God’s name for money and I believe Judas used God’s name for money. Once you become a...

Former Vice President Mike Pence was on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday morning. He told moderator Margaret Brennan that the use of the term hostages for January 6th defendants was “unacceptable.” “What do you think when you hear him refer to those people facing charges as hostages and patriots?” Brennan asked Pence. “Well, I think it’s unfortunate at a time that there are American hostages being held in Gaza that the President or any other leaders who would refer to people that are moving through our justice system as hostages and it’s just, it’s just unacceptable,” Pence responded.

Former Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the Republican Party needed to move on from the leadership of former President Donald Trump, who will be judged by history. When asked about January 6, Pence said, “I would say to every American, as I did during my presidential campaign, that I know I did my duty that day to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. I kept my oath. And they also simply need to look to the facts that the Capitol Hill police endured great hardship and great harm. I...

Haley, who is polling in third, dedicated the opening of her speech at the same conference to Pence, noting that he was a “good man of faith” who has fought the United States and Israel. I want to first say just a special point to Vice President Mike Pence. He’s been a good man of faith. He’s been a good man of service. He has fought for America and he has fought for Israel. And we all owe him a debt of gratitude...

The former vice president has gone all out to win Iowa. But is anyone listening? [cut] Inside Penn Drug, an old pharmacy and lunch counter in rural Sidney not far from Iowa’s southern border, a smattering of retirees gather each morning to gripe about the world’s problems. Today, two dozen of them wearing Mike Pence stickers, had convened. I wondered, had I walked into the biggest room of Pence stans in Iowa since his June announcement? (That event featured about 200 former staffers, relatives and local Republicans.) Among the crowd in Sidney sat Dave Heywood, a 66-year-old who had “retired...

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Tuesday criticized his former boss-turned-rival, Donald Trump, for calling retired Gen. Mark Milley, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a traitor over phone calls he made to China in the final stormy months of their administration. “Frankly what Donald Trump said about him in that tweet, about treason and death, was utterly inexcusable,” the GOP presidential candidate said at a national security and foreign policy event at Washington’s Georgetown University co-hosted by The Associated Press. Pence also reacted to the news that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy had been ousted from his...

As he makes his actions on January 6 the centerpiece of his campaign, Pence appears to have a different recollection than those of his top aides. During last week’s GOP debate in Milwaukee, the former vice president forced his Republican opponents to thank him for allegedly saving the republic on January 6, 2021. “The American people deserve to know whether everyone on this stage agrees that I kept my oath to the Constitution that day,” Pence declared. Unfortunately, the rest of the field complied. “Mike Pence stood for the Constitution and he deserves not grudging credit, he deserves our thanks...

Mike Pence, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, addressed former President Donald Trump’s fourth indictment for the first time on Wednesday. Speaking at the National Conference of State Legislatures’ Legislative Summit in Indianapolis, Pence condemned Trump’s conduct amid his refusal to concede the 2020 election in the last days of his administration. “I’ve said many times I had hoped that judgment about those days would be left to the American people and to history. Such is not the case,” he said. Pence said he believes “it’s important that we hew to the first principles and that we tell...

Former Vice President and current GOP presidential candidate Mike Pence was blasted by conservatives on social media this week over a video at a gas station that showed him appearing to fill up the tank of a pickup truck while criticizing the Biden administration. “Remember $2 gallon gas? I do,” the Indiana Republican said to the camera as he worked the gas pump. “And then Joe Biden became president of the United States and launched his war on energy.” But the video, seen over a million times and meant to promote his energy independence plan, was mocked by many on...

Mike Pence has met the requirements for the first Republican presidential debate. He finally reached the donor threshold. His campaign confirmed the news late Monday. Pence capitalized on Trump’s indictment and allegations that Trump tried to pressure Pence to reject the 2020 election results. There must have been a level of humiliation felt by Pence and his campaign as the former vice president failed to get the necessary donor level to qualify for the debate. His campaigned reached the polling requirement but had difficulty getting 40,000 unique donations. Pence is a former congressman, governor, and vice president and he only...

Former Vice President Mike Pence has met the requirements to qualify for the first Republican presidential nomination debate, his campaign tells Fox News. Pence’s 2024 presidential campaign said on Monday that earlier in the day they crossed the 40,000-donor threshold — one of two criteria set by the Republican National Committee for GOP White House hopefuls to reach the debate stage. Pence had already passed the polling threshold mandated by the RNC. The former vice president’s political team said they reached out to inform the RNC that Pence had qualified and spotlighted that they were the first campaign to submit...

Voters recently confronted former Vice President Mike Pence during a campaign stop in New Hampshire, accusing him of being a “sellout.”According to video posted by ABC’s Kelsey Walsh, a dozen supporters of former President Donald Trump approached Pence and yelled at him, stating that he is a “traitor” and “sellout.”“Why’d you sell out the people,” one supporter could be heard asking, followed by the question, “Why didn’t you uphold the Constitution” — a likely reference to Pence certifying the 2020 election results.“I upheld the constitution,” Pence retorted, later yelling, “Read it!”A dozen Trump supporters approached Mike Pence’s vehicle as he...

Former President Donald Trump dubbed his former running mate turned campaign rival “Liddle Mike Pence” over the weekend and contended he never directed Pence to put him “above the Constitution” as the former vice president has claimed. Trump referred to Pence with the newly-minted “Liddle” moniker in multiple Truth Social posts, with the first coming Saturday after Pence was critical of Trump following his latest indictment in connection to the January 6 Capitol riot: WOW, it’s finally happened! Liddle’ Mike Pence, a man who was about to be ousted as Governor Indiana until I came along and made him V.P.,...

The Justice Department’s latest indictment against former President Donald Trump made some waves on the Sunday morning circuit. At center stage was former Vice President Mike Pence, who has been struggling to build something resembling an adequate presidential primary campaign.The prosecution seems to believe that having Pence testify in the upcoming legal proceedings against the Orange Man What Is Bad™ might deliver exactly what they need to put him behind bars. On the flip side, Trump’s defense team seems confident that the former vice president’s possible testimony will work in their client’s favor. Which side is right? The answer might...

As Donald Trump was being arraigned in Washington on yet another round of criminal charges, his running mate-turned-rival Mike Pence hurried to capitalize on the news. Pence’s campaign unveiled new T-shirts and baseball caps for sale featuring the phrase “Too Honest” in big red letters — a reference to an episode in the indictment in which the former president called Pence to berate him over his refusal to go along with Trump’s scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election. “You’re too honest,” Trump allegedly scoffed at his second-in-command on New Year’s Day. Pence’s decision to seize on the...
