Former Vice President Mike Pence, who we honestly can’t remember if he ran in 2024, posted this to his own account, so you know he’s pretty proud of it. On Sunday night, he was awarded the John F. Kennedy “Profile in Courage” award.

Fox News reports:
Former Vice President Mike Pence was honored on Sunday night for his actions on Jan. 6, 2021, in defying his then-boss, President Donald Trump.
Pence received the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for his refusal to honor Trump’s request to throw out the results of the 2020 presidential election, and instead oversaw congressional certification of former President Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory.
“Vice President Pence put his life career and that of his family on the line to execute his constitutional responsibilities. His actions preserved the fundamental democratic principle of free and fair elections and we are proud to honor him,” former ambassador Caroline Kennedy, the late President Kennedy’s daughter, said in presenting Pence with the award.
This Mike Pence?
This was Pence making false promises just two days before January 6. For him to now accept a “courage award” when he, more than anyone, was stoking the flames and baiting the base about overturning the election is beyond hypocritical. It’s grotesque. https://t.co/9tUrvpNz1X pic.twitter.com/4RYqjZLzIZ

Pence is a joke.
Let him collect his cute little fake awards, but keep him far away from the levers of power.

Oh, to know the comms between Pence, McConnell, Schumer, Pelosi, Bowser, and the military brass. What backroom deals were struck? Who recorded notes so that everyone knew who was to do what?
Will we ever see the full truth about J6?

The only thing that’s courageous is Pence keeping his mentions open. 😆😂 The comments are 🔥

Judas received an award from the opposition. How unsurprising.

You’re a coward and one day, your name will be in the history books for being a traitor of the American people. Your children and their children will be humiliated and ashamed to be related to you.

At least there’s still one good Kennedy left who’s not a traitor to Americans like this group of hyenas.
And what an insult to JFK’s memory.

We know how important it is to be honored by the Kennedy family, especially when you’re a die-hard Republican like Pence.
