I've been wondering about Pence. His office announced he is going on vacation to an unnamed Island off the coast of Florida. I am frankly VERY interested in his first comment about the result of the election. My bet is it will be a politically correct concession speech, and he is hiding until his boss admits defeat.

He's Trumps lap dog
Pence crosses Trump, he'll end up like Jeff Sessions and he knows it
Trump destroyed Jeff Sessions.
Pence will double down on any BS Trump pushes
Trump is the Republican kingmaker and will still have that power well into the future

You can't speak from a position of integrity when you are doctoring photos to try to make a point.

The assertion that they are trying to refute: The media doesn't select the president.

Here's the (now deleted) text of the tweet: “Greeting staff at @TeamTrump HQ this morning, a reminder that the media doesn’t select the President,”

Along with that tweet, was a photo from the Washington Times, with a huge "PRESIDENT GORE" headline.

The newspaper claims that the photo is doctored, and they never printed that headline.

I don't see how they can complain about the integrity of the media and "fake news" when they are doing stuff like this.

If they just saw it and re-tweeted it, shame on them for not fact-checking, especially since they believe in so much "fake news". It also supports something I've been saying for a long time - people are going to choose to believe what they want to believe - not verify something they agree with, and call everything else "fake" without evidence.

Seems he is purging the defense department something like a banana dictator.

911 commission cited in their report that the delay in the transition team getting George Bush up to speed as one of the possible reasons for the failure in intelligence in preventing the attack.

Biden should be getting detailed unfiltered intelligence reports everyday
Would not surprise me if Trump is preventing Biden from getting these reports putting the country in danger
