Van Jones has an old grudge with Pence - on top of everything

Posted on 10/08/2020 9:40:25 AM PDT by Marinario

CNN boosts Van Jones' "perspective" especially at/after last night's debate between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris.

In addition to his anti Trumpism... I wanted to remind this:

Pence calls on Van Jones to resign
By MARTIN KADY II

Rep. Mike Pence, the no. 3 Republican in the House, is calling on Obama green jobs czar Van Jones to resign. This sort of thing would usually be laughed off by Democrats -- a conservative Republican telling a Democratic appointee to quit. But the Obama team isn't exactly jumping to back Jones today in wake of revelations that in the past he signed on to one of the "truther" groups that claimed 9/11 was an inside job. Oh, and he called Republicans a**holes in a video earlier this year before he was appointed.
Asked about Jones' affiliations with the 9/11 group at the daily briefing, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs would only say: "It's not something that the president agrees with." And then Gibbs referred other questions to a statement Thursday by the Council on Environmental Quality in which Jones said he never backed any of these 9/11 conspiracy groups. "Given recent revelations concerning the associations and statements of the president's green jobs czar, Van Jones should resign his position and if he is unwilling to do so, the president should demand his resignation. His extremist views and coarse rhetoric have no place in this Administration or the public debate," Pence said. "The Constitution of the United States vests Congress with the responsibility to advise and consent in the appointment of high ranking officials by the president. To date, President Obama has appointed more than thirty individuals to ‘czar’ positions within his Administration without permitting the Congress or the American people to properly examine their backgrounds or public records.

Van Jones has a grudge? What’s new. The left hates hate, which they define as anyone who disagrees with their agenda. So they have a grudge against all of us.

I’m so sick of the lies. Mike Pence wiped the floor with Kamala Harris. He dominated with facts, and remained a gentleman throughout the evening. Anyone who thinks Pence somehow didn’t completely annihilate the entire Biden campaign last night didn’t pay attention, or is a lying liar!

He’s a communist that should never be trusted. Every now and again he pretends to go to the right and then goes far left again.
