Pence slams Biden vaccine mandates: 'Unlike anything I have ever heard'

The Hill ^ | 09/10/2021 | JULIA MANCHESTER

[Mr. K]

Pence is a deep state coward.

He may be a ‘good man’ but he was still a coward when it mattered.

[Mr. K]

huh?
Are you deranged?

[RobertoinAL]

Pence, you POS, this could have been averted if you had the testicular fortitude to nullify the election results based on provable video evidence to cheating. Go screw yourself Pence, you are to blame for this.

[grey_whiskers]

[cgbg]

Yup—no way to put the toothpaste in the tube.

The traitors of 2020 will remain traitors forever.

[WKUHilltopper]

STFU Pence, yellow belly.

[liberalh8ter]

Pence just demonstrated the GOPe perfectly….the Democrats have the knives out and he couldn't even muster up a b/tch slap.

[redgolum]

To all the GOP who keep asking for money from me.

Fish or cut bait.

It is time. Fish or cut bait.

Who was properly responsible for the clarion call to investigate the 2020 election fraud? President Donald J. Trump:

• The authority, and the responsibility for rejecting elector slates, and demanding state legislatures send new elector slates consistent with investigations into electoral fraud, resided solely with President Trump.

• There is no Constitutional mechanism to permit the Vice-President to make such a claim. That power -- if it indeed exists -- lies solely with the Office of the President. Any such attempt by the VP would be duly and properly ignored.

• As President Lincoln once promised, leaning into Congressman James Alley, "I am the President of the United States, clothed with immense power, and I expect you to procure those votes." What Lincoln didn't say, was: "Vice-President Johnson is clothed with immense power, and I expect him to procure those votes."

• In April 2020, President Trump threatened to dismiss Congress over blocking him from recess appointments. President Trump believed he had that power -- the exact same power he would have used to remand the presented elector's slates back to each state's legislature -- and Trump believed that power was invested in him alone. President Trump didn't call VP Pence and say, "Hey Mike, you tell them you're shutting down Congress because I can't get my recess appointments."

Has Trump yet expressed an opinion on what Biden did yesterday?

[Boogieman]

“To have the president of the United States say that he’s been patient, but his patience is wearing thin, that’s not how the American people expect to be spoken to by our elected leaders,”

Not “the president”, Mike, “your president”. You appointed him, not us.

Where were the alternate slates of Electors with the imprimatur of both that state's legislature and signed off by that state's Governor?

• Even if Pence had had that, the House and the Senate must both vote in the majority to throw out the original Electors of any challenged state's slate.

• The fact that 1 Congressman and 1 Senator, can object to every electoral slate (50 states + DC) is Constitutionally not enough to actually disqualify that state's slate. The Vice President must have both the House & Senate majority votes. There is nothing in 3 USC that allows the incumbent VP to act extra-constitutionally.

• FRacebook rage, while risible, fails (as usual) to comprehend the complete absence of any enabling Constitutional language that would have permitted Pence to act in a completely unconstitutional manner, of Yet Another FRacebook Wish Sandwich.

• What you FRacebookers really wanted Pence to do was perform errant libtard constructionalism a la RBG/WisePuta/Elanaesbian, in treating the Constitution like a "Living Document" DOORMAT.

• As if this needs to be added, and yet it does, so far have we fallen: "Free Republic advocates a return to constitutionally limited government, reserving all government powers not expressly delegated by the constitution to the United States to the States respectively, or the people, emphasizing sovereign state governments, local government, self-government and self-rule, while restricting government powers to only those enumerated in the Constitution."

• Had the FRacebook cadre and their demented, blatantly unconsitutional concoction been followed in 2016, the Democrats' objections to every single state electoral slate would have successfully pre-empted President Trump's legitimate victory.

• On Jan. 6, 2017, the Democrats planned -- to the minute -- a challenge of every single slate of electors, and they executed their plan to the letter, with longtime Leftard Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) who objected right out of the gate to Alabama's slate of electors, citing "direct Russian election interference via hacking the election software of VR Systems" (that scenario sound familiar?).

• McGovern's challenge was immediately followed by challenges from fellow travelers Raskin, then Jayapal, then Sheboon Lee, then Grijalva.

• This would have been the result, the very result our Founding Fathers fought and died to prevent when they crafted the Constitution:

---

"Mr. McGovern has objected to the Alabama slate due to the "confirmed and illegal activities engaged by the government of Russia". Mr. Raskin has objected to Florida’s slate, due to that state's prohibition against dual office holders. Ms. Jayapal has objected to the Georgia slate's electoral certification. Ms. Lee has objected to the Michigan slate again due to Russian interference. Mr. Grijalva has objected to the North Carolina slate due to violations of the Voting Rights Act. I find all of these objections in due order and I hereby as Vice-President suspend each of these state's slates until further investigation by the DOJ and the FBI, and I further order each state involved to prepare and send an alternate slate of electors. Trump's Inauguration can wait forever, as far as I'm concerned. We are adjourned." - Vice-President Joseph Biden, January 6, 2017

---

• After then-VP Biden -- in identical fashion to what FRacebookers wanted from VP Pence -- had ruled every challenged 2016 electoral slate "out of order", Hillary would have been installed shortly after SCOTUS surrendered under the weight of 51 challenge cases, only requiring SCOTUS to respond positively to Vice-President Biden's challenges to the 3 critical, close swing-state cases [PA, MI, WI] that would have immediately floated to the top of the unconstitutionally slate-challenged Electoral College bowl.

[joshua c]

Biden is Pence-certified. thanks mike.

[fwdude]

Pence COULD have done much toward delegitimizing the sham “election,” short of decertifying it. What he did was exactly what the fraudsters wanted him to do. That’s not a patriot. That’s a traitor!

[MayflowerMadam]

Back at ya!! A most excellent weekend to you.

[Persevero]

Bother Pence, you had your opportunity. I don’t know why you turned your back.

[Freedom56v2]

Yes, thanks mike...

[OrioleFan]

I thought Pence was serving in the Biden administration???

[cgbg]

You can’t rehabilitate Benedict Arnold Pence.

He had to do whatever he could do as a patriot, whatever the personal cost, to try to stop the steal.

Anything less was treason.

[faucetman]

What is with articles about Pence lately? Isn’t he DEAD?

He is to me.
