Pence’s Secret Service Team Feared for Their Lives as Trump Egged On Mob to Target VP on Jan. 6 – Free Speech TV

During their eighth and final hearing until the fall, the January 6 House select committee aired new testimony from an anonymous national security official detailing how Mike Pences Secret Service agents feared for their lives during the breach of the Capitol. There were calls to say goodbye to family members, said the anonymous official. Despite knowledge of the growing mob, Trump decided to publish a tweet at 2:24 p.m. saying Mike Pence lacked the courage to stop the certification. The tweet poured gasoline on the fire, said Trumps ex-deputy press secretary, Sarah Matthews, who testified live on Thursday. Meanwhile, Trump was still reaching out to Republican senators, including Senator Josh Hawley, who was seen in footage racing to safety just hours after he raised his fist to the massing mob.
