Once again, the rules apply to common people but not those in the Trump administration. Now, Pence is spreading lies about what he was told and is blaming the press.

Pence staff threatens action against reporter who tweeted about visit to clinic without surgical mask

But Steve Herman, who covers the White House for Voice of America, suggested that there was more to the story after Karen Pence’s interview.

“All of us who traveled with [Pence] were notified by the office of @VP the day before the trip that wearing of masks was required by the @MayoClinic and to prepare accordingly,” tweeted Herman, who covered the trip as part of his rotation as one of the pool reporters, who share information with other reporters in limited-space situations

Hey dopey....you use your head for two seconds instead of you anus...

The picture of Pence was a national Picture...nobody needed to report it and it's a pretty fair bet that the reported threats are a crock. He's making a choice...that simple. He is tested everyday so the only person in danger is Pence himself.

The guidance was clear. The rules apply to everyone and it is obvious that they were told beforehand. Somehow, they are claiming that the VP staff informed everyone of the rule except for the VP
 
And the lib in question, doesn't include in their op, that actual "threat".

Pretty standard for the libs.

Of course not...they start every sentence with >>> Sources say: Polls say: Popular opinion says : 60 percent of Americans say: ... so on and so forth.... it's all Bullshit verbiage meant to skip out on needing any real proof.

I'm glad, Pence should have broken his nose and threw him out a window.

Oh...please.....

He made a conscious choice that endangered no one except himself. I applaud his choice...I see people every day in the markets making the same choice...they are not buying into the mass hysteria. Perhaps he also heard that the masks are less than 2 percent effective against contagion with one caveat....if a person is sneezing or coughing then they should definitely cover up. Otherwise it's just a lemming cloth IMO. I wear one to avoid the appearance of being rude to others why Pence chose not to I cannot say. In his position I would have put one on but I don't for one minute think that he did it unknowingly...he knew exactly what he was doing.

What is the threat? He clearly violated the "off the record" rules" and they are reviewing whether or not to ban him from future trips. The OP is the typical Dimsocialist, expects there to be no consequences for actions take.

From the link:

However, the planning document is marked, “OFF THE RECORD AND FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY.” The off-the-record designation is standard for such logistical memos, indicating reporters are obligated not to publish or report the information. The White House typically keeps planning information confidential to maintain security for official trips.
 
It is sad to watch Mike Pence sell out his values to work for Trump.

Pence has always claimed strong Christian values which would include telling the truth. Now he sinks to Trumps level to claim first, that he didn’t need a mask and then that he had no knowledge that masks were required. Even though everyone else was wearing one.

All he needs to complete the transaction is to paint his face orange.

The reporter is probably full of shit..... If Pence's picture made the national news...as it did....where is the reporter responsible for uncovering this big, dark secret? He probably said some other thing that wasn't true and got called out on it. This guy is a legend in his own mind.

And the lib in question, doesn't include in their op, that actual "threat".

Pretty standard for the libs.
Bull. Made up again. It was due to his tweeting out logistical information before the trip. -

Of course they don’t tell you that until the very last,paragraph.

Sure, just ignore the linked text.
"Herman said he was notified by the White House Correspondents’ Association that Pence’s office had banned him from further travel on Air Force Two, although a spokesperson in Pence’s office later told VOA managers than any punishment was still under discussion, pending an apology from Herman or VOA."

Pretty standard for tRumplings.

He made a conscious choice to ignore the ridiculous screaming ninnies of collectivism. You should be happy....maybe next week he will meet with a woman alone and finger her up! isn't that what you want?

No one should be surprised when Pence makes an ass and fool out of himself.
