Nate Feltman: Vice President Pence opens up on podcast
With a presidential bid in the rearview mirror, and enough time and distance from Jan. 6, 2021, Pence is genuine, relaxed and clearly at peace with where he finds himself today.

Advancing American Freedom released a 13-page blueprint Thursday with arguments being made to Capitol Hill and to voters in swing states, particularly in those that could decide control of the Senate.
Lopez is running on the Republican ticket for House District 39, which includes portions of Carmel and Westfield.
The former Indiana governor doubled down on “the impact inflation has had on American families,” and highlighted his four-step plan to reduce government spending and reform the Federal Reserve.
The 45-page indictment of former President Donald Trump is informed, in part, by contemporaneous notes that former Vice President Mike Pence kept of their conversations in the days leading up to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The former vice president raised a modest $1.2 million in the second quarter and has yet to reach 40,000 individual donors, a requirement for participating in the first Republican presidential debate.
While he frequently lauds the accomplishments of the “Trump-Pence administration,” a Mike Pence nomination in many ways would be a return to positions long associated with the Republican establishment but abandoned as Trump reshaped the party in his image.
No evidence ever emerged suggesting that Pence intentionally hid any documents from the government or even knew they were in his suburban Indianapolis home.
The launch is the latest sign that former Vice President Mike Pence is moving ahead with his expected bid for the GOP nomination—a move that would put the former Indiana governor in direct contention with his former boss, former President Donald Trump.
A spokesman for Mike Pence said Wednesday that the former vice president will not appeal a judge’s order compelling him to testify in the Justice Department’s investigation into efforts by Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Their appearances approach as former President Donald Trump marches ahead with his announced bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination and his former running mate Mike Pence visits key primary states in preparation for his own potential run.
Former Vice President Mike Pence and his attorneys are planning to cite constitutional grounds as they prepare to resist special counsel Jack Smith’s efforts to compel his testimony before a grand jury.
Pence adviser Devin O’Malley said the Department of Justice completed “a thorough and unrestricted search of five hours” and removed “one document with classified markings.
The search Friday was described as consensual and came after an extensive back-and-forth between former Vice President Mike Pence’s legal team and the FBI.
The search follows revelations last week that the former vice president handed over to the FBI “a small number” of documents bearing classified markings that his lawyers discovered at his Carmel residence.
In his first public comments since the discovery, former Vice President Mike Pence said he hadn’t been aware that the documents were in his Carmel residence but his lack of knowledge wasn’t an excuse.
The records appear to be a small number of documents bearing classified markings that were inadvertently boxed and transported to Pence’s personal home as he left office, the lawyer said.
The switch between camps comes as potential GOP White House contenders seek to build out their operations in preparation for the launch of campaigns against former President Donald Trump for the 2024 nomination.
A spokesman for former Vice President Mike Pence’s campaign denied reports on Monday that the Republican had filed to run for president in 2024, responding to an apparent hoax after screenshots of a Federal Election Commission posting began to circulate.
