Pence, during a live presser just now, not only defends Trump's Ukraine call but also repeats Trump's debunked Biden conspiracy theories AND calls for an investigation into the Bidens.

@VP is all in. He's going down with Trump.

@VP .@VP Pence defended Trump soliciting election help from Ukraine [a felony] by pressing Zelensky to investigate the Bidens. "The American people have a right to know if the vice president of the United States, or his family, profited from his position."

@VP White House officials said Pence would have received the detailed notes of Trump’s call to Zelensky in his Jul 26 briefing book.

The 5-page call summary also would've been in the briefing materials Pence took with him to Warsaw for his Zelensky meeting.

@VP "White House lawyers, so alarmed by Trump's call, quickly moved detailed notes of it to a server reserved for “codeword-level” records."

But Kellogg didn't warn Pence [about Trump's extortion] before Pence met with Zelensky? I'm not buying it. Pence knew.
