Mike Pence & Kellyanne Conway join forces to launch new group that will promote "traditional values"

Mike Pence & Kellyanne Conway join forces to launch new group that will promote “traditional values”

You know what that means.

By Bil Browning Wednesday, April 7, 2021

Former Vice President Mike Pence (R) is taking the next step in his quest for the presidency by launching a new political advocacy group meant to promote “traditional Conservative values.”

Kellyanne Conway and other Trump administration officials like Pence’s former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, will serve on the group’s advisory board. Before he was hired, Short publicly apologized for the repugnant comments he had made about people with AIDS.

Pence’s Advancing American Freedom group will focus on traditional religious right issues along with economic and foreign policy. Abortion and “religious freedom” advocacy against LGBTQ rights will be a large aspect of the group’s planned attacks on President Joe Biden’s progressive agenda.

“Advancing American Freedom plans to build on the success of the last four years by promoting traditional conservative values and promoting the successful policies of the Trump administration,” Pence said in a statement to the Washington Examiner. “Conservatives will not stand idly by as the radical left and the new administration attempt to threaten America’s standing as the greatest nation in the world with their destructive policies.”

I’m pretty convinced nobody likes Pence or Kellyanne. They were just useful, for a while. They both faded into the background in the former guy’s last couple of years. I don’t think they’ll get anybody’s backing except those who get in on the grift short term.

Motel facecloths* after a very busy season. Not really anyone will be interested in them for any reason.

Is Karen Pence going to have to attend all their meetings/meals to keep Mike from temptation for Kellyanne?

Nope. Kellyanne Conway revealed who and what she was during the Trump debacle, someone willing to defend the most gross overreach in power and inhumane statements coming out of the WH.

She should be tarred and feathered along with all the other Trump enablers. There's not enough plastic surgery to disguise Ms Conway's blackened heart or shredded integrity.

Disgusting. All of them!

They likely figure if Trump got them to send all that money to him, they might as well cash in too!

and "accidentally" post them for the entire world to see, like Kellyanne does? That's the kind of "values" we're looking at here.

The board meetings must be nauseating. Just the stench emanating from just those two has got to be unbearable.
