Probably the only hope for prosecutingTrump. Pence has just helped establish that mishandling classified documents is boring.

They're already asking why the FBI didn't raid Biden. Never mind that the National Archives had been asking for months before the subpoena was sought.

This should be in humor but seems most appropriate here. Andy Borowitz in the New Yorker:

When it comes to Trump, it's hard to know what's real and what's a joke.

Ah, I still remember the halcyon days when even the implication that some relatively insignificant classified material MAY have mistakenly escaped in an email was worth mountains and mountains and mountains (and mountains) of ink and led to crowds of people shouting 'lock her up!'. Those were the days.

The kind that finds it laughable that QAnon thinks we would run operations out of a pizza joint. Churches are much more efficient.

Remember the Durham investigation into the Russia hoax? This is a pretty long article that I suggest you read for yourself but the bottom line is not much has come of it: But here's something interesting: I'm leaping to a conclusion here, but what better way to bury an allegation? Get your handpicked investigator to take it in and sit on it.

Cheezes, another case of improperly held classified documents, and this one is seriously big. WTF was this clown doing with all of this, and how is there seemingly zero tracking of any of it?

Lies under oath aren't as safe as just garden variety lying, no matter how constant.
Fortunately for Trump he always has "the best people."

More on Biden's classified documents. As expected it's looking more like a nothing-burger.

They searched Mike Pence's home for classified documents. Unlike Trump he cooperated. It must be tough when you've stolen piles of classified documents and stonewalled law enforcement for months, only to have both the current president and your former vice-president both show what full cooperation looks like.

Trump is just thinking "See, everyone take classified documents. But me, I'm the president and I can declassify anything I want merely by thinking it and they're still picking on me."

Trump is just thinking ... I disagree with this part of your statement.
Actually only half kidding. He doesn't really think very much, he just reacts on pure emotion and instinct. It's part and parcel with him being so untethered from reality and living in a world where things may be true at the time he says them but not so much later.

Mike Pence continues to follow the Gospel of Expedience. And once again he proves that he's no hero and, in fact, refuses to actually stand up for America if he thinks it will harm his political career. Now he's fighting Jack Smith's subpoena, pulling a Dick Cheney. An actual patriot would be grateful for an opportunity to tell the truth, but Pence and the truth have had an uncomfortable relationship since well before the Jan 6 Republican Insurrection.

The BS meter is pinging rapidly and loudly. Privilege doesn't attach when the guy is to testify about efforts to get him to do an un-Constitutional act. And he wrote about it in his book already.
