Speaking at the Gridiron Dinner in Washington DC yesterday, former Vice President Mike Pence directly blamed President Trump for the events in Washington DC on January 6, 2021, saying:
“President Trump was wrong; I had no right to overturn the election. And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day, and I know history will hold Donald Trump accountable.” ~ Mike Pence
Be of good cheer. Despite the main takeaway being pushed by mainstream media, these remarks strike me as good news.
These remarks indicate to me that the professional Republican control officers are growing increasingly desperate as President Trump continues to command the new Republican Party. If Ron DeSantis was making ground, the professional Republican class would not be as desperate as these remarks convey. All of their collective GOPe effort isn’t working…. they are starting to reach for the kitchen sink.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Vice President Mike Pence on Saturday harshly criticized former President Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, widening the rift between the two men as they prepare to battle over the Republican nomination in next year’s election.
“President Trump was wrong,” Pence said during remarks at the annual white-tie Gridiron Dinner attended by politicians and journalists. “I had no right to overturn the election. And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day, and I know history will hold Donald Trump accountable.”
Pence’s remarks were the sharpest condemnation yet from the once-loyal lieutenant who has often shied away from confronting his former boss. Trump has already declared his candidacy. Pence has not, but he’s been laying the groundwork to run.
[…] With his remarks, Pence solidified his place in a broader debate within the Republican Party over how to view the attack. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, for example, recently provided Tucker Carlson with an archive of security camera footage from Jan. 6, which the Fox News host has used to downplay the day’s events and promote conspiracy theories.
“Make no mistake about it, what happened that day was a disgrace,” Pence said in his Gridiron Dinner remarks. “And it mocks decency to portray it any other way.” (read more)
All these weasels have been hiding in the shadows, but now they they are squinting in the sunlight of the Truth of Sundance, Regitiger, and many others, they are going to come out proactively into the light and posture righteousness in front of us.
Too late.
I hereby pronounce the Trump Curse not only on traitor Pence but his sidekick also for constantly snubbing Melania.
Ms. Pence was a stoic, cold, unfriendly witch compared to the lovely and gracious Melania.
and he thinks he could get elected as POTUS? seriously? all he had to do was send everything back to the States. is this how you got the money for your new million+ dollar house in a tony neighborhood that you bought just weeks after you screwed America Mikie?
Pence is an evil man. I HOPE he decides to try running for the Republican nomination. He’ll get battered worse than Harold Stassen. After the recent exposure of all the videotape from January 6, his comments are nothing short of ridiculous. He is right about one thing, though. Everyone involved that day WILL be judged by history. That said, I suspect he will be judged far more harshly than anyone else involved that day because HE is the one who abdicated his responsibility and allowed a corrupt election to go forward despite overwhelming proof of electoral theft.
Pence, the mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceeding small. Your day of reckoning will come. Matthew 7:21-23 tells you exactly what you’re going to hear from He who will judge us all.
If Pence wants to know what good ratings look like in a primary, he need look no farther than his successor during her primary. She got out of the race and cut a deal with Clyburn at less than 1% approval. I guess Pence will have to work to get his that high!
So … Pence thinks he had no authority to conduct an election investigation?
Is that why the Uniparty struggled so hard to jam through amendments to the 1877 Electoral Count Act? To not abolish what could not be done?
It is amazing that after 8 years, the Real POTUS DJT is STILL flushing the rats and roaches out from their hiding places. PDJT continues to force the crooks and cheats to show their hand.
AMENDMENTS ARE NOTHING UNTIL THEY ARE RATIFIED. DUMBOCRATS THINK AMERICANS ARE TOO STUPID TO KNOW THAT, AND THEY WILL JUST GO ALONG, AND MAKE BELIEVE THE CONST HAS BE CHANGED BY A RULE….
pence: Make no mistake about it, what happened that day was a disgrace
me: there is no mistake, we are quite clear, the disgrace is crystal
Pence: And it mocks decency to portray it any other way
me: we acknowledge the indecency, it EVERY WAY it has been portrayed you spineless wormy groverling coward
also me: and it ALL THE WAYS
Regitiger,
Thank you for the hard work you have done in researching this issue. After watching the videotape of what happened on Jan. 6, it is crystal clear that the entire event was a Reichstag fire-type fraud posed by the ‘Rat Party. The 25,000 National Guardsmen and three miles of razor wire were never necessary because there was never a real threat posed by the J6 protestors. It was all a total and bare-faced lie, aided and abetted by pretty much all of America’s mass media, including Fox News.
After seeing all of the proof that has now been exposed, I strongly doubt that there is even ONE person in the District of Criminals who can be trusted to tell the truth about anything. Our nation is truly in dire straits.
Make no mistake about it Mike, what happened that day was a disgrace and your handlers not only enabled it, they started it, fed it, stoked its fires, and used it to destroy the Constitution. THAT will be your legacy. Go back home to Indiana and live in seclusion. You may get crowds at rallies but they won’t be pro-Pence they will be for your rePentENCE!
God will hold this hippocrit accountable for professing to be a Christian. Trump is a much better man than Pence.
Pence is a Christian in word. Trump is a Christian in deeds. Big difference!
This career politician has a special place where it’s very hot. He talks a good game though. However I hope the last words he hears is, “I never knew you.”
The Greatest Political Betrayal in American History:
http://stateofthenation.co/?p=44089
The 64 thousand dollar question here is: Why would a VPOTUS ever put himself in the position of betraying his President, his own party, his country, the American people as well as his supposedly conservative principles and Christian values. And this is not just any betrayal; it’s “The Greatest Political Betrayal in American History” if he does not properly fulfill his statutory responsibilities on January 6th. Of course, McConnell et al. are also complicit in this epic betrayal perpetrated by the Republican Party.
Just how disturbing will a Mike Pence betrayal be on January 6th if he foolishly rubber stamps the greatest election theft in recorded history? AND HIS OWN ELECTION, AT THAT?!?!

The Treachery of Mike Pence Explained:
“… In fact, it’s always been obvious that Pence and his staff were deeply involved in trying to remove President Trump from office.”
1) Who Fired General Michael Flynn?
In other words, Mike Pence was the first person to set the Russia Hoax into motion.
2) The Ukraine Impeachment
During the failed Ukraine impeachment of President Trump, plenty of State Department and NSC swamp creatures crawled out of the shadows to hurl lame accusations about Trump’s phone call with Ukraine President Zelensky. Did you know that one of main accusers was a national security official on Vice President Mike Pence’s staff? … This is the second time that Mike Pence and his office were involved in plots against President Trump manufactured by national security officials. Do you see a pattern forming yet?
3) Olivia Troye And The COVID Vaccines
The worst mistake that President Trump made during his administration was probably turning over the COVID Task Force to VP Mike Pence — because Pence turned it over to his chief of staff Marc Short and Marc Short turned it over to a little known national security official with no medical expertise. If you want to know the name of the person most responsible for unleashing the Dr. Fauci vaccine nightmare on America then remember the name of Mike Pence’s “COVID advisor”: Olivia Troye. … So that’s three members of VP Mike Pence’s office who engaged in anti-Trump activities during normal business hours. That’s a lot of treachery. Let’s not forget the ringleader of so much of this malice too: Pence’s chief of staff Marc Short.
4) Pence’s Chief of Staff Gets Locked Out of White House by Trump
My own sources in the White House told me that Pence’s chief of staff Marc Short was literally the first person to call for Trump to accept the results of the stolen election and concede to Biden. Like I said at the beginning: there’s a lot of evidence of Pence’s treachery. … Why did Pence and his staff spend four years hobbling the Trump Administration? Why can’t people believe that the GOP would try to impeach Trump to clear the way for Pence? Most Republican voters have never met the big GOP donors — and have no idea what they do with their money. The big donors wanted a Mike Pence/Nikki Haley ticket in 2024. They don’t really care what GOP voters want, and they never have. These are the people who pushed Jeb in 2016. And Paul Ryan before that. And Dan Quayle before that.
Why do they keep trying to foist Nikki Haley on us?
Because she too can be controlled by TPTB. IMHO
These are the people who pushed Jeb in 2016. And Joe Biden in 2020. And Paul Ryan before that. And Dan Quayle before that.
I did a fundraiser with Marilyn Quayle in 1992 … Trust me, she was the brains of the couple. He was a nice guy, but not much more.
Marilyn, on the other hand, was dynamite.
May pence ROT IN HELL FOREVER!!!
HE IS T H E BIGGEST TRAITOR OF THIS COUNTRY AND NEEDS TO BE TRIED FOR TREASON!
The desperation is heavy in that one.
…They KNOW.
No, Mikey. History will hold YOU accountable, and President Trump will be elected 47th president of the United States in 2024.
This is a signal from Judas Pence to the Feds to go after President TRUMP.
Remember also, putting Judas Pence’s life in danger is a part of what they are using in the charging of the higher crimes for that day. He has to try and maintain the facade in order for that to work.
Pence has no self-awareness. History will hold him accountable for helping to install a corrupt, neuro-divergent fool into the White House with his failure to follow his Constitutional authority with respect to the Presidential electoral count act.
I will not have Judas Pence lecture me on decency. Have you no honor?
History, if not written by Michael Beshloss, will hold Pence responsible.
DeSanctus? Sure… we got DeSanctus… try not to throw up a little in your mouth…
Thank goodness I haven’t had breakfast yet. 🤮
Judas Pence.
Judas Thirty Pence
As a Christian I’m ashamed of Mike Pence. I sincerely hope the rest of my fellow citizens will judge individual personal behavior on its merits.
And you wonder why he’s coming out and saying this, knowing how so many despise him? It’s simple, election fraud. The Uniparty will somehow cheat so Pence, DeSantis or whoever they choose to be the candidate. Everyone was bragging about how well Florida’s 2022 election went. I think a deal was made with DeSantis that allowed him to win in exchange for running against Trump. As corrupt as elections are, if they wanted DeSantis would have lost. Maybe I have a foil hat on but I’m to the point of believing anything could be possible
F-u, Pence
Pence was exposed as a weasel in the early days of the administration.
Did PDT know Pence was one of the snakes?
Surely MAGA’s enemies in DC knew…
Serious question, please:
Does the requirement for election certification stand only as a ceremony?
No, since there are provisions in the Electoral Count Act for the raising of Objections to specific slates of Electors. The problem is, the President of the Senate, either the Vice President or the President Pro Tempore of the Senate does NOT have legal authority to unilaterally disqualify Electors. The two houses of Congress leave Joint Session to discuss and debate the Objections. They vote and return to inform the President of the Senate of their decision about the Objection.
How dumb is this person. He wasn’t asked to overturn anything jus send back Delegates to re check in disputed States. Police injured could mean a paper cut. DCPolice after all.
Sit this one out, Governor.
History is not the judge. Jesus is.
Amen
History will hold Mike Pence accountable for a lot more! In case he wonders why he is polling in single digits, he need only read his own statements. Mike Pence was working deeply within the Deep State from Day 1. He knows it. We know it. He knows we know it. For a man who wears his “faith” on his sleeve, he doesn’t have the least problem with lying or deception!
History will hold President accountable for January 6th, but for you, Pence, a special sarcophagus is being fashioned.
His panicky remarks suggest he was aware of the analysis presented here yesterday by our own Regitiger. If his (Regitiger’s) surmises are true, Mr. Pence has much to be concerned about, for his machinations have been exposed. These facts also offer an explanation for why the Democrats declared Republicans as terrorists, but then did nothing, and the usual suspects seemed unperturbed by being labeled in a way that would get a pro-life protestor or a Capitol tourist put in indefinite dungeon.
In Jan 2017 Mike Pence was alone in the room with Andy McCabe and the kislyak transcripts as Rence Preibus stormed out in disgust
Pence plotted with Andy McCabe to take out Mike Flynn the NSA director
coward pence and his cohorts endangers all of our lives and denies us our natural rights on a daily basis.
That’s the words of a weak man.
No more weak men!!!
Pence is an evil lying ba*tar*.
Pence and Cheney would make a perfect pair for the Treason Party Ticket, They would garner ZERO votes!
Never liked him, never will. The faster he fades into obscurity, the better.
I have witnessed enough of this current administration, enabled by men like Pence, to recognize the real people endangered.
Those people are out here in the truth of the real world working hard every day; for one more day, to get by the government forced upon them.
Mike Pence is a coward.
Regarding the documents taken from Pious Pence’s home, Donald Trump stated, “Mike Pence is an innocent man. He never did anything knowingly dishonest in his life. Leave him alone!!!” Two men, two sets of values, one a self-proclaimed Christian, the other a sinner saved by Grace. You will know them by their fruit.
Well observed and stated, Nan!
I see Judas Pence made these statements in the DC morass of anti-Trumpers. He’s a coward. Lets see him publicly make these statements in flyover country. My gawd but he’s a disgusting piece of excrement.
How exactly does Pence know that if he sent electoral votes back to the States the results would have been an overturned election?
Oopsie on Pence…he accidentally told the truth
No one asked Pedo Pence to “overturn the election.” They wanted a 10 day pause for the state legislatures to review the fraudulent “election” process.
Exactly!
Pence was the one who torpedoed Mike Flynn and was a key player in stealing 2020 from MAGA. Regardless of who was in D.C. Jan 6, the congressional session would have been ended before the introduction of any motions to examine fraud. That is why the fake pipe b**b.s. we’re planted.
Look closely, you can see the botox needlepoint injection on his chin as he prepares to be photographed and interviewed. What a fraud. The man is showing his guilt on his face and trying to cover it up. A Pelosi brother by another mother.
Looks they did his whole face!!Needlepoints everywhere!!Traitor!!
Just got a spiritual message from the late Spiro Agnew: “Well, it looks like my place in history is being replaced by super Christian Mike Pence…my my!”
YES, it was a disgrace that the FBI planted agents in the crowd and all of the DC apparatus conspired to encourage a run on the Capitol.
Mike Pence had every right, and every opportunity, to object to the electors from the contested states in a completely Constitutional manner. Even without him doing that, in fact, the process would have gone forward – but for the fedsurrection, perfectly timed to kibosh the proceedings before they became a judicially reviewable contest (as yesterday’s CTH article about the parliamentary motive behind it eloquently explained).
I watched on January 6th. I heard what President Trump said. There was no call to arms, no urging of violence. This is all an attempt to discredit President Trump and we all know that! Everyone who was paying attention knows that.
Pence is an idiot, a stooge for the anti-Trumpers. That is evident and everyone knows that too!!
“Penssssss ….” The sound a serpent makes when coiled and ready to strike.
Pence is nothing but a Judas Priest. The Swamp/Uniparty along with Pelosi and McConnell are nothing but master manipulator’s. They created a crisis, bypassed our Constitution and installed a buffoon, who can’t walk across the White House lawn without pooping his pants.
If the politicians in DC thinks for one moment that the MAGA party will shrink up and go away if PDJT is out of the running, they’re in for a big surprise.
History will look at Pence as a coward.
BTW, Judgement Day is approaching for these folks. They’re not getting any younger.
Pence was nearly useless as Governor of Indiana. He was worse than useless as VP.
I bet he was very (U)seful for their coup and agendas for all the decades since 1976 when he was a Volunteer for the Bartholomew County Democratic Party.
Ran multiple times, but finally got elected in 1990.
That’s 40+ years of political graft and scam, much like Biden, McConnel, and Pelosi. So what did he DO for the people?
I’d add to your question, “What did he do FOR the people?”
Useless to the non-compromised side of the country.
He was VERY useful to the Uniparty & Deep State– helping get rid of General Flynn, keeping his contacts appraised of what the Trump Administration was doing… and finally… cooperating in the theft of a US election for President.
Hardly useless to the Deep State and WEF radicals.
VP Mole.
“Do you wanna be like me or you wanna be me ..?”
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Makes one wonder when the fix first existed.
Judas Pence was always the party’s insurance policy. He started subverting Trump the moment he was selected for the short list.
Obviously this man that calls himself a Brother in Christ, has forgotten his Bible that says in Exodus 20:16-“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” Can you imagine what would’ve happened to him in Biblical times had he done that to his King? Read the Book of Esther in the Bible and find out what happened to a LYING BACKSTABBER by the name of Haman. Pence will be known as that same kind of BACKSTABBER.
People can find all sorts of ways to justify the things they do.
Clearly he was a swamp thing from the beginning. He helped to get rid of General Flynn and should have known better. But besides that, he always sounded fake to me when he spoke. Sounds like an announcer at a high school sports event.
But regardless of what he tells himself, I hope he burns in the fire when he dies. He stood next to greatness and knew in his heart what he was.
How many mirrors does Mikie P. have in his home or with him on the road so that he can practice his “Serious Look”? What a tool….
He chuckles to himself as he looks into his own soul in the mirror and then puts the “prayerful” mask on to go face the world.
He probably can’t see his reflection in the mirror.
Vampires can’t, you know.
Doesn’t he look pale, bloodless, soulless— rather like a 🧛♂️?
Can you be forgiven when “mens rea” is in your heart?
Elmer Gantry
This man may call himself a Brother in Christ, whatever that means, but he is first and foremost a politician. And we all know the axiom about politicians that they are usually liars by necessity. What politician can win an election if they get pinned down by a straw man question from a political opponent or a media talking head working for the opponent? Pence is a politician/liar/Brother in Christ in that order, if you will.
In these closing days of the US, the Lord is purging the frauds out and exposing falsehood everywhere, beginning with the churches. Those who cling to their precious religious and political influence peddling will be harvested and thrown into the fire. There won’t be many left, not enough to run the system as we know it. The godless majority-wins game will finally be destroyed.
Mike Pence is the worst kind of phony. He claims to be religious while stabbing President Trump in the back.
He is the scum of the earth.
Now he goes around claiming credit for President Trump’s actions by calling it the Trump/Pence administration. He falsely thinks he has a shot to be President if he can trash President Trump enough to get him out of the race. I would even vote for the ingrate DeSantis before Pence. I would really have to hold my nose to vote for DeSantis.
He has the nerve to call his book “So Help Me God.” God will judge his false and deceptive actions. What a disgrace.
Pence is a disloyal snake.
DeSantis is much worse, which is why he’s the big fav w/the donors
Amen Steve, amen!
