Trump on Friday blasted the former Vice
President Mike Pence lacked “courage” in refusing to enforce a plan to overturn
the 2020 election results. The former president spoke out at a conservative
Christian conference in Nashville in which he referred to a “ludicrous
narrative” and “witch hunt” while the House committee probes Trump’s involvement
in the Jan. 6 attack.
Trump’s former aides and staff testified about
Trump’s attempts to pressure Pence into rejecting the 2020 election results. One
former Trump assistant testified Trump
called Pence a “wimp” . in a heated phone call on Jan 6.
However, in his speech, Trump denied calling
Pence a wimp, adding that "he had a chance to be great, to be historic,
but like Bill Barr and the rest of the weak people, Mike did not have the courage
to act.”

Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, tweeted on Thursday
that "Real America" has no interest care in Jan. 6 investigations
prior to his own speech at the Faith & Freedom Conference.
The bipartisan House committee, Trump said,
has a “menacing spirit” and is putting on a “theatrical production” with “sick
and evil people.” He describes the left’s ‘spiritual problems’ as "resentment,
envy, intolerance, bigotry, malice, and even rage."
During his presidential run in 2024, Trump
said he would "very seriously" consider pardoning those people
arrested following the Capitol attack on Jan. 6. Which has charges ranging from
seditious conspiracy to assaulting law enforcement.
