In reply to the discussion: Do you believe that Pence did not know about [View all]Tanuki
(16,461 posts)30. Back in December they made a big deal out of the fact that Pence
was receiving the daily intelligence briefing on a daily basis, while the Dolt was only doing so about once a week. We have every reason to think that Pence was much more aware of what was going on than Dolt, and not less so. It also makes sense that since Pence had made public statements denying that Flynn had discussed sanctions with the Russians, the Intel people would have tipped him off directly that they knew otherwise. Unless, of course, they suspected he was deeply implicated himself and were holding off to see what else he might do.
