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...

One of my oft-repeated statements is that it’s not the Democrats’ fault that Trump was unable to achieve so many of his goals and then failed to retake the White House. Instead, it was the Republicans’ fault because so many constantly blocked him. That’s why it’s easy to believe what Tucker Carlson told his official biographer, which is that one of those Republicans could have been his own Vice President. It turns out that, during Tucker’s stint at CNN, he often interviewed Mike Pence. Tucker spoke about that experience during no-holds-barred conversations with Chadwick Moore, his official biographer. Jordan Schachtal,...

They cut off the military aid that we had been providing to Ukraine under the Trump/Pence administration in the early going.”Biden said earlier this month that the United States would “not waver,” on support...

People tell the story in different ways, but they agree on this much: In 1979, at Hanover College, the boys of Phi Gamma Delta threw a party with girls and booze. Hanover, a small liberal arts school perched high on the Indiana side of the Ohio River with views of Kentucky, is a Presbyterian institution with strict rules on alcohol, and an event like this was far out of bounds. Word came to the revelers that someone from the dean’s office was headed their way. Everyone scrambled. Women were hustled out, floors swept and mopped, and kegs tossed down a...

Pence called the indictment “deeply troubling.” “I think it’s important to note that we don’t know the facts in this case,” Pence said. “No one does. But you know, after years of politicization at the Justice Department, two and a half years in our administration where we fought against the Russia hoax that the Durham report recently confirmed, was an investigation that should...
