Reports have surfaced classified documents were found inside former Vice President Mike Pence’s home.
Oh boy…
Apparently, Mike Pence was rummaging around his home and found classified documents he took home with him as Vice President.
The news was broken by Pence’s lawyer who said on January 16th a small number of classified documents were found inside of Pence’s Indiana home.
After the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago last year, Mike Pence told CNN he did not take any classified documents with him when he left office.
Telegram user Bio Clandestine had an interesting take:
Wow. This could not get any better. The Dems and MSM find themselves between a rock and a hard place.
Now the Left will either have to admit that Vice Presidents aren’t allowed to take and posses classified documents, or pretend like this isn’t a big deal in order to save face for Biden.
Do we think the Left can resist calling Pence a criminal for having these documents? 😂 I doubt it.
No matter what they do, they will be contradicting themselves. Meanwhile, Trump remains insulated.
Here is the story from Trending Politics:
On Tuesday, classified documents were found in former Vice President Mike Pence’s home in Indiana.
The development is ironic to say the least considering Pence once hammered former President Donald Trump for having classified documents in his possession.
“Did you take any classified documents with you from the white house?” Biden was asked during an interview with ABC News after classified documents were found in Trump’s home.
Pence replied: “I did not.”
ABC News host David Muir followed up: “Do you see any reason for anyone to take classified docs from the White House.”
“There would be no reason,” Pence ironically said.
On Tuesday, classified documents were found in former Vice President Mike Pence’s home in Indiana.
The news was confirmed by Pence’s lawyer who said about a dozen documents were found in the home.
More from Fox News:
Former Vice President Mike Pence informed Congress on Tuesday that he discovered documents bearing classified markings from his time as vice president in his Carmel, Indiana, home on Jan. 16.
Following the revelations that classified documents from President Joe Biden’s tenure as vice president were found at the Penn Biden Center think tank and Wilmington, Delaware, Pence’s team conducted searches of Pence’s Indiana home and the office of his political advocacy group, Advancing American Freedom.
According to his team, Pence informed the National Archives on Jan. 18 that a small number of potential classified documents were found in two small boxes. Another two boxes contained copies of vice presidential papers. The National Archives then informed the FBI, per standard procedure.
Pence attorney Greg Jacob wrote on Jan. 18 to Acting Director Kate Dillon McClure of the White House Liaison Division National Archives and Records Administration to inform her of the papers “containing classified markings.”
After the documents with classified markings were discovered, they were immediately put into a safe, according to the Pence team.
