What a man of courage Mike Pence is to make this announcement after the GOP takes the House and there is zip possibility the January 6 committee will be in operation after the new Congress is sworn in come January. It is this type of Hoosier derring do that has made Indiana the mother of vice presidents! Trump should look to his laurels if he has to face blood and guts Pence in the primaries!
If the Commiecrat kangaroo court wanted to subpoena Pence, they would have done so a while ago.
A man of principal maybe, but “deterring do”, nope. No fire in the belly.
Pence is someone with a history of wilting under pressure from the Chamber of Commerce. (Asa Hutchinson is even worse in that regard). A man without much of a chest. I don’t see much reason to criticize him in re 6 January except that he hasn’t done squat for the people so mistreated by the U.S Attorney’s office and our odious judiciary. Neither has Trump, for that matter. (I think Trump should remain in retirement).
I was at the recent “hearing” by the Conservative Caucus regarding the governmental failures during the pandemic. Dr. Scott Atlas did not hold back in condemning the actions of the Pence “led” White House Corona virus Task Force. Dr. Birx was an outspoken purveyor of misinformation and bad ideas who never supported her recommendations with research, unlike Dr. Atlas. However, Pence let her take control. He’s a first rate coward who should retire in shame, if he had any.
“our odious judiciary” So well said. Thank you Art Deco. Soon it will be treason to speak so of our public servants.
Hey, easy on the Hoosiers thing there, bub.
We also gave the world Florence Henderson, Steve McQueen, Frank Borman AND Gus Grissom, Booth Tarkington, Orville Redenbacher, the Studebakers, “Scatman” Crothers, Red Skelton, Bill Blass, Twyla Tharp, Ernie Pyle, Cole Porter, The Jackson Five, Larry Bird, John Wooden and Dan Patch, just to name a few.
Not bad for the smallest state west of the Alleghenies, and a bold illustration of where we hold politics in the grander scheme of things.
