Fmr VP #MikePence repeatedly invoked the #Constitution & said it is what “binds us all together”after receiving the #JFK Profile in Courage Award.#Pence received the award for his refusal to go along w/ #Trump’s efforts to remain in office after losing the #2020election. The award recognizes Pence “for putting his life & career on the line to ensure the constitutional transfer of presidential power on #Jan6, 2021,” the JFK Library Foundation said.#law #democracy #USpolhttps://apnews.com/article/pence-profile-courage-award-jfk-capitol-riot-10918d5bc5a356a19b7fa524fea16760

“…whatever differences we may have as Americans, the #Constitution is the common ground on which we stand. It’s what binds us across time & generations. ....It’s what makes us one people,” #MikePence said.His comments came hours after an interview w/ #Trump aired in which he was asked whether US #citizens & #noncitizens both deserve #DueProcess as laid out in the #5thAmendment of the Constitution.…“I don’t know.” Trump said.#law #ethics #democracy #USpol

@Nonilex yeah, sounds good except in his next breath Pence stands by the felon. Yeah, he wanted me to hang, but i would vote for him again. I am proud of our 4 years.

#MikePence criticized #Trump’s across-the-board #tariffs on Monday, arguing that a looming “price shock” to the #economy & potential shortages will lead Americans to “demand a different approach.”In an interview w/ CNN, #Pence rebuffed Trump’s recent comments that #children in the #UnitedStates will have to make do with fewer toys.#Donny2Dolls #inflation #recession https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/05/politics/january-6-pence-trump-tariffs-russia?cid=ios_app

@Nonilex Even a piece of shit like Pence is right sometimes. Worth noting that in the months after Jan 6th the Pences went into hiding to avoid angry MAGA retribution. In an alternate universe too close for comfort, a mob succeeded with their Hang Mike Pence efforts and things look very different today.

#MikePence also said he sees some of #Trump’s actions as sharp breaks from what he thought were the successes of their admin. That includes “wavering support for #Ukraine” in its war w/ #Russia & “marginalizing the right to life” that #Pence said followed #RFKJr’s selection as #HHS secy.…watching Trump’s return to #power from the sidelines, Pence said he plans to make a public case on those issues—in part so that Trump might hear arguments those in his WH aren’t making.#law #Constitution

@Nonilex Did he really say "wavering"?
