I don’t see this being talked about, but this was the first thought I had when I saw Pence pressuring the judge to dismiss the case about challenging elector votes.
Pence likely doesn’t want a court case pending that could easily reverse any decision he chooses to make on the 6th. This lawsuit was more of a threat than helpful. If it WASNT interfering in Pence’s plans, then he would have no reason to put pressure on getting the case dropped.
It’s always easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission, this is the logic I feel this situation is in.
Thought?
He said the case should have targeted Congress.
That makes sense, I hadn’t heard that. Either way, it would only benefit Pence to not have that case sitting there.
