Vice President Mike Pence has finally broken his silence.
Pence has been all over the place when it comes to fighting election fraud.
Yes, he has made a couple of speeches speaking out against election fraud but recently Pence asked a Judge to toss a lawsuit by Rep Louie Gohmert that would give Pence authority in rejecting Electoral College votes from States that violated the Constitution.
So, the question still is where does the VP stand?
Well, Marc Short, Pence’s chief of staff, was quoted saying “The vice president welcomes the efforts of members of the House and Senate to use the authority they have under the law to raise objections and bring forward evidence before the Congress and the American people on January 6th”.

Yahoo News covered Pence’s remarks and released these details:
Vice President Mike Pence is supporting the efforts of Republican lawmakers to challenge President-elect Joe Biden’s win by opposing the certification of Electoral College votes.
“Vice President Pence shares the concerns of millions of Americans about voter fraud and irregularities in the last election,” Marc Short, Pence’s chief of staff, said in a statement, The Washington Post reported.
“The vice president welcomes the efforts of members of the House and Senate to use the authority they have under the law to raise objections and bring forward evidence before the Congress and the American people on January 6th.”
The statement came after Republican senators and representatives indicated they will object to the certification of the Electoral College votes.

Our friends over at Newsmax didn’t stay silent on Pence’s announcement:
Vice President Mike Pence, who will oversee the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress, issued a statement Saturday he “welcomes” the lawful “authority” in the House and Senate “to raise objections.”
VP Pence, facing growing pressure from Trump’s allies over his ceremonial role in presiding over the session Wednesday issued a statement Saturday through his chief of staff Marc Short.
Several Republicans have indicated they are under pressure from constituents back home to show they are fighting for President Donald Trump in his campaign to root out voter and election fraud.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, announced Saturday a coalition of 11 senators and senators-elect who have been enlisted to support Trump’s effort.
Although Pence welcomed Senators to raise an object to the Electoral College results, the bigger question is will Pence himself certify the rejection results or will he object?
Do you trust Mike Pence on January 6th?
