Mike Pence launches new PAC. Things that make you go "Hmmm."

Courtesy of NBC News:  

Vice President Mike Pence is launching his own PAC — the "Great America Committee" — to aid his own future political interests, including helping Republican candidates ahead of the 2018 midterms. 

The group, which filed paperwork with the FEC on Wednesday, will be able to use the funds to cover the costs of the vice president's travels on Air Force Two to campaign on behalf of GOP candidates across the country. 

This is the first time a sitting vice president has formed such a separate political arm. Former administration officials have used either party or campaign funds to cover travel costs.

A source close to the vice president said the organization will "provide resources for the vice president to actually support candidates who are supportive of the president's agenda."

Of course they are dismissing the idea that this has anything to do with Pence's plans to run in 2020, but I mean come on, is anybody really buying that?

The last sitting VP to do this was George H. W. Bush, and of course we know why HE did it.

I actually think that Pence has been positioning himself for a 2020 run since the inauguration.

And currently Pence is doing his invisible man act in order to stay out of the line of fire while Trump gets hit from all sides.

Courtesy of CNN:

It's hard for a vice president of the United States to disappear from sight. After all, you are the second most powerful person in the country and all that. 

Despite those challenges, Vice President Mike Pence has been nearly invisible for the last 48 hours or so -- even as the Trump Administration has been buffeted by a slew of negative stories that have occasioned a special counsel to be named to oversee the ongoing Russia probe.

So yeah he's running in 2020, and I'd bet the farm that he is hoping the investigations take the giant orange asshole out of his way soon so that he can become the president right now and get started on rolling back voting rights and women's access to birth control, like he's always dreamed of doing.

    Pence bankrupted Indiana just like old Brownback did Kansas. Is this rally how stupid the Rethugs are? Yes!

    A description taken right out of SarahPAC. Here's an idea: If you want to support candidates true to your agenda, why not do it out of your own damned pocket and leave your grubby mitts out of others?'

    LAWD, I hate these people with a passion.

    I can hardly wait until Trump gets paranoid about Pence wanting his job and then see what he does.

      Have you noticed that Steve Bannon has all but disappeared from the media since the jokes about him being the real president started going around?

      Funny how his ugly mug and nasty personality were everywhere right up until that Time magazine cover that reportedly caused such a ruckus in the White House.

      NO ONE is allowed to get more press attention than the Lying Cheetoh!

      And Trump was a lot closer to Bannon than he ever was to Pence.

    Pence is part of the stinky mess. He wont be running nothing except to his lawyers office to make a payment. He is as dirty as the rest.

    Trumps lips look like a protruding asshole. He sits in chairs like he sits on the toilet. He sounds like a giant fart when speaking and he is a disgrace to USA democracy and USA people.

    Mike Pence would never get my vote if he runs for 'anything' on the nation level in future years.

    He tarred himself horribly by joining Donald Trump on his ticket! His judgement is obviously horrible - just like that of his boss man!

    So flotus decided to go on the trip of the scam artist. Or did he force her too. He more than likely has her under strict surveillance at the ny trump dump. So she must go and pretend. 10 wonderful days without that toxic waste in our country is a blessing.

    "President Trump told Russian officials in the Oval Office this month that firing the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, had relieved “great pressure” on him, according to a document summarizing the meeting.

    “I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

    "Mr. Trump added, “I’m not under investigation.”"

    OT?HMMM "Lieberman also had the unusual job of promoting and representing a Libyan businessman and politician who tried to court an alleged terrorist accused of leading the 2012 attack on the Benghazi compound that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans."in November 2013, as Politico reported at the time, his law firm signed up as a foreign agent for Basit Igtet, a Libyan businessman and activist who was considering running for prime minister in Libya."having a JEWish wife was probably not an asset.As part of his campaign, Igtet emphasized his connections to the United States, pointing out his wife was involved with the US-Libya Chamber of Commerce and boasting that he personally knew Secretary of State John Kerry and Sen. John McCain."Lieberman was working for a Libyan who had reached out to Khattala. Now, Lieberman may be Trump's choice for FBI chief. If Lieberman does end up in the job, it will certainly be a first: an FBI director who once was a foreign agent for an overseas politician who cozied up to an alleged terrorist accused of KILLing Americans.

    Will Republicans and conservatives care about this Benghazi connection?

    Trump's already rolling back women's rights so Pence really can't do any worse than is already happening.

    1. Oh, yes, he can.

      Pence would probably love to turn the U.S. into the Gilead of The Handmaid's Tale.

      Women can't work, can't own property, can't have bank accounts, not allowed to read or write. Man, he would love that.

    Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said in a statement. “If these White House documents in fact exist memorializing the President’s statements to the Russians, the Oversight Committee needs to obtain copies immediately.”

    Mikey maybe putting the horse before the cart.

    He needs to be investigated also.

    He was responsible for "vetting" Flynn, so either he is incompetent and didn't vet him properly or he LIED and knew Flynn was a agent for foreign countries.

    He has also lied on several occasions to the American public in order to cover for his incompetent boss, so he is No longer credible.
