Republicans have a record that Americans can see, showing that things can turn around under the right leadership as America experienced energy independence and a “booming” economy under the Trump/Pence administration, former Vice President Mike Pence said during an interview on Breitbart News Saturday, ultimately predicting a Republican takeover in Congress. Speaking on the show ten days ahead of Election Day, the former vice president reminded listeners that Republicans have been focused on the issues Americans care about, unlike Democrats. “Republicans and conservatives have been focusing on the issues the American people are focused on, which is the disastrous policy...

Trump And Pence Still At (Polite) War – For Now?: As President Joe Biden approaches the end of his second year in the White House, Republican contenders are preparing their presidential campaigns behind the scenes. Even with the prospect of a third Donald Trump campaign lingering, the Republican Party expects a large slate of candidates vying to go up against Joe Biden in 2024 (or potentially another Democratic pick, if the party’s voters get what they want).

Former Vice President Mike Pence railed against President Biden’s speech arguing “MAGA Republicans” pose a threat to democracy, telling a conservative women’s group that the address amounted to a “partisan campaign rally” that demonized the right. “Did you see that speech last week?

Mike Pence, Dan Crenshaw, and many other Republicans seem utterly uninterested in reforming our corrupt federal law enforcement.If former Vice President Mike Pence isn’t delusional for thinking he has a shot at the next GOP presidential nomination, he’s certainly delusional for his recent comments defending our most rotten and corrupt federal agency. While trying to pump life into his potential presidential campaign in New Hampshire last week, Pence criticized efforts led by a minority of Republicans to reform the FBI:“The Republican Party is the party of law and order. Our party stands with the men and women who serve on...

The former veep is still trying to sound reasonable by saying the GOP shouldn’t criticize the FBI — but the bureau is saturated with political bias that must be expunged.When it comes to the way the deep state regime is at war with Republicans, former Vice President Mike Pence’s No. 1 priority is showing that his main concern is to keep playing the “good cop” to the “bad cop” of former President Donald Trump. Speaking in New Hampshire last week, Pence characteristically tried to have it both ways over this unprecedented attack on norms that the incident represented. After vaguely...

Mike Pence's aides ensured all government documents were indexed and boxed up before he left office. Two of his top aides oversaw the process, The New York Times reported. The process falls distinctly out of line with reports of Trump's handling of government documents. Former Vice President Mike Pence was organized about making sure all White House documents were preserved and packed up, The New York Times reported on Saturday.

Former Vice President Mike Pence said he took no classified material along with him when he left office last year – but refused to condemn his former boss, Donald Trump, for allegedly having shipped boxes of top-secret documents to his Florida home. “I honestly don’t want to prejudge it before, until, we know all the facts,” Pence said Friday during a visit to the Iowa State Fair, an obligatory stop for politicians weighing a White House bid. The former veep’s two-day Iowa swing followed a Wednesday speech in New Hampshire, another must for potential presidential candidates, where he drew the...

Video A man who is egoistic without understanding himself, which is something of a contradiction and not even remotely amusing, ironically. The man has no chance to be president. The man has no chance, in my estimation, to be even a contender. And for him to be virtue signaling to the MAGA base, a base that he neither understands, is in touch with, nor obviously respects – because that was a condescending and pompously pious statement.

...Bannon, who was the chief strategist of Trump's 2016 campaign and of his administration during 2017, said of Pence: 'This is an individual who has done more damage to this country than any other person in modern political history. He's gutless.' 'Just even the sight of you bugs me,' he said of Pence. 'Just a disgusting coward. Of course, we're the party of law and order, right. But this is not what we're talking about. We're talking about a police state. And you don't have the guts to stand up to it.' Trump accused the FBI of corruption after it...

Former Vice President Mike Pence said Wednesday he is concerned by the FBI's raid of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, but urged Republicans to stop "attacking" rank-and-file FBI personnel and calling to defund the law enforcement agency.

"I also want to remind my fellow Republicans: We can hold the attorney general accountable for the decision that he made without attacking rank-and-file law enforcement personnel at the FBI," Pence made the statement to applause at the "Politics and Eggs" breakfast at Saint Anselm College...

“These attacks on the FBI must stop. Calls to defund the FBI are just as wrong as calls to defund the police,” he added.”
