Mike Pence: “This administration hasn't sought to transcend politics of Washington, D.C. This has been the 'my way or the highway'…”

That’s it. And no vice president in history had ever asserted any authority to decide what votes to count or send back to the states ... so I knew my duty was clear and I’ll always believe, by God’s grace, I did my duty.

I mean, under the Constitution, the vice president’s role is only to preside over a session of Congress where the electoral college votes are opened and counted.

People that assaulted police officers on Jan. 6, and vandalized our Capitol should not get one dime of taxpayer money from that fund or anywhere else.

My hope is the administration will drop it, drop the idea entirely.
