Politics USA Opinion: Mueller Hints That Mike Pence May Be Indicted Soon

https://www.politicususa.com/2018/12/06/mueller-hints-that-mike-pence-may-be-indicted-soon.html

Earlier this year Mueller obtained all of the transition team’s emails, and that’s when the speculation started that both Pence and Jared Kushner — another transition team member — were in deep trouble.

Now that we know Flynn has sung like a canary to Mueller about all the dirty deeds of the transition team, things have gotten even worse for both Pence and Kushner.

In other words, the vice president has been caught in numerous lies, not only to the American people, but also to federal law enforcement authorities. It is very likely that the redacted portions of Mueller’s memo mention the name Mike Pence, and not in a good way.

Michael Flynn committed numerous crimes, and Mike Pence did everything possible to cover up those crimes, possibly because he was implicated in them also. In fact, Pence could face the same criminal charges that Mueller brought against Flynn.

I do believe Pence was involved, but the publicly available evidence is very thin.

If Pence were indicted, he'd resign and Trump would pick someone else. Whoever he picks would have to be able to make through both houses of Congress, so it's likely to be a consensus candidate forced on him by Pelosi and McConnell.
