Former Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed that he took notes on his conversations with former President Trump leading up to the Jan. 6 riot, as Trump repeatedly pressured him to reject the results of the 2020 election during the certification in Congress.

    I prefer to not set myself up for further disappointment. Remember when it almost appeared certain that Mueller was going to pin Russia conspiracy shit on Trump? All we got was a lot of “sure looks bad but not enough proof to indict” kinda stuff. Whether because he was kept on a tight leash or the investigation cut off too soon idk. Maybe both.

    As much corruption as there is in politics at the higher levels, and as much as the richy-riches aren’t held to the same legal standard as the rest of us peons, I think it is a good idea to wait and see and not get ahead of ourselves.
