Vice President Mike Pence’s national security adviser was reportedly on President Donald Trump’s call with the Ukrainian president on July 25.
The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that the adviser, Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, had been dialed into the call in which Trump attempted to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
Unnamed officials told the Post that Pence should’ve had access to the call transcripts “within hours,” in the Post’s words, and that detailed notes of the call likely would’ve been included in the vice president’s briefing materials for his meeting with Zelensky in Warsaw on September 1.
However, the officials claimed that Pence probably hadn’t read the the notes before the meeting and that the vice president didn’t know about Trump’s pressure campaign against Zelensky.
Bu it was during that Warsaw meeting that Pence, at Trump’s behest, pressed Zelensky on the issue of corruption, though Pence denies bringing up the Bidens in the conversation.
Please don’t put to much pressure on Pence. Wax melts under pressure.
It’s a long shot, golden bee-bee stuff, but let me dream of President Pelosi for just a moment.
Old cotton top is done.
If Pence went into a meeting with Zelensky without knowing what was discussed on that July 25th phone call -the call his own national security adviser was on -he should immediately step down for sheer incompetence.
When he told Zelensky the money to Ukraine was being held up because he needed to be stronger on corruption, what exactly did Pence think he was asking for? Because the Ukrainians knew it was about investigating Biden.
I suppose we can always subpoena Keith Kellogg to find out if and when he informed Pence of the call.
Doesn’t pass the smell test.
Pompey and his bible study partner Pence are desperate for the rapture. Someone please tell them there are ways to experience it without going all Bhagavad Gita on us.
