Tucker Carlson: “Here’s the latest in unexplained weirdness in the news—Mike Pence of all people has just swooped in to save Joe Biden…”
Mike Pence “almost bragged” about the appearance of classified documents at the former vice president’s Indiana home, rather than worrying about facing prosecution.
In the latest twist in the saga of classified White House materials not being properly returned to the National Archives, Pence’s lawyers confirmed that a “small number of documents” were found at his home during a search last week. These were then handed over to the government.

Pence said he was “unaware” of the existence of sensitive materials at his private property and that he would be willing to fully cooperate with any inquiry.
Carlson said that Pence may have “swooped in” and saved Biden by revealing classified documents from his time as vice president were also found at his home.
Carlson said despite Pence repeatedly saying during media interviews that he was not in possession of any classified materials, his lawyers conducted a search of his home after being asked to do so by federal prosecutors wanting to build a case against Trump.
“The point would be to show that not every federal official walks off with state secrets. Donald Trump was uniquely evil in that regard, as in so many others,” Carlson said. “‘See, Mike Pence didn’t do it.’
“So if that was the plan and we suspect that it was, it backfired spectacularly because Mike Pence’s lawyer promptly discovered classified documents.”
Carlson added it was odd that Pence immediately notified authorities, as well as congressional leaders, about the appearance of the documents because “what he did was a felony.”
“We’ve heard that again and again. Keeping classified documents at home unsecured is a felony,” Carlson said.
“But Pence didn’t seem embarrassed about it at all. In fact, he almost bragged about it. So clearly, Mike Pence is not worried about being punished for keeping secret documents in his home. And that’s strange in a country where all laws are supposed to apply equally to all people. But Mike Pence is not worried about FBI raids. And that’s interesting. Maybe someday we’ll learn why.”

Associated Press: Documents with classified markings were discovered in former Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home last week, his lawyer told the National Archives in a letter. The records “appear to be a small number of documents bearing classified markings that were inadvertently boxed and transported to the personal home of the former vice president at the end of the last administration,” Pence’s lawyer, Greg Jacob, wrote in the letter. He said that Pence “engaged outside counsel, with experience in handling classified documents, to review records stored in his personal home after it became public that documents with classified markings were found in President Joe Biden’s Wilmington residence (Associated Press). Ed Morrissey: What does this mean politically? It probably lets Joe Biden off the hook, or at least provides enough of a distraction to cool the temperature around his scandal. Biden and his team certainly didn’t embrace the “everyone does it” defense when Donald Trump deployed it, but you can bet they’ll grasp at it now (HotAir).

Pence was always a deep state establishment RINO but was trying to hide it while he was the VP. It did not take long for the truth to come out.

You won;t if you look at his history in Congress. He was all for open borders. Read Paul Kengor’s book TAKEDOWN to learn about what some, who called themselves Christians were doing before Karl Marx appeared on the scene.

He SHOULD be held FULLY ACCOUNTABLE just as biteme should be . Orange man WAS Pres he had the ability to de-classify – Just because someone else breaks the law too doesn’t make it somehow ‘ right ‘ Wasn’t aware he had them just like China Joe had no idea how they ended up in all the places they did – yeah right.

Yes Pence is a closet-Leftist & a traitor.
When the … “fly-incident” occurred …
… during his face-off with (Kamel-shit the bimbo) Harris on live tv.
People should have sussed then that he would betray Donald Trump.

Pence was a liability.
Donald Trump picked him because he was apparent (sic) … “committed” to traditional Christian values.
Pence is a fraud & a traitor.
Therefore it should surprise NOBODY …
… that he would be Biden’s new best pal

Trump did not look at something that Jesus said, “You will know them by their fruits.” I’m no person’s judge, but I can judge what they do and Pence was a big supporter of not controlling immigration. I like what the late Keith Green once said, “Going to church does not make you any more a Christian than going to McDonald’s makes you a hamburger.” America’s political condition is heavily reflective of what all the churchians really believe. As Andrew Breitbart once said “Politics is downstream of culture.”

Forty years ago I would hear “both parties are the same” comments, and I would reject them. Now we hear “Establishment, Deep State”…….boy, was I wrong, at least when it comes to corruption. They would have loved Trump if he hadn’t disrupted their little games….like money from China, Ukraine, and who knows where else. And what we have going on in this country now is INSANITY.

Absolutely, Pence was part of the deep state. I had watched him for quite a while and while on Congress he was an open borders congressman. When He was tapped to be the VP I had a real problem with that as I knew he would undermine Trumps admin.
They loved shouting he was a Christian and BE A SUPPORTER OF LAWLESSNESS AND pence WAS. I wonder if he the a “Bible Communist” like John Humphrey Noyes (1811–86) was? Noyes founded a Communist Commune in Oneida, NY Read Paul Kengor’s book “TAKEDOWN” to see what Communists were doing before Karl Marx puked his Communist Manifesto on the world.

I am surprised that Pence did not put in an appearance with all the worlds most corrupt people in Europe last week. He would fit right in with all the morally one worlder types.
