Pence cancels event in NH, returns to DC amid rumors of "undisclosed emergency"

Perhaps he accidentally spoke to a woman alone, and now must return for a month of ritual cleansing.

In other words, this is a personal but not a governmental emergency. Imagine that!

A "personal" emergency that requires the VP at the White House, for reasons that are neither medical nor related to national security.

If I believed anything coming from the Administration, I'd guess that Trump pitched a bigger than usual fit over something and they needed Pence to talk some sense into him. Since I consider the output of the Administration to be completely untrustworthy... I'm just in the dark, and a little concerned.

A woman helping with the media at the New Hampshire event later clarified that it was a "diversion" and not an "emergency." A senior White House official said Pence never left Washington, D.C.

NBC News White House Correspondent Kelly O'Donnell said a source close to Pence told her "Something came up and the VP had to be back at the White House. It is not a cause for alarm." She said President Donald Trump is fine and he and Pence are both at the White House.

O'Donnell said she was also told that no medical issue caused the cancellation of Pence's New Hampshire event.

Seems to be because of reported gunfire at the airbase Pence was going to land at.

That makes sense and may well be the reason. But it doesn't mesh very well with,

I mean, that could just be bad phrasing from a team of habitual liars.

Is he trolling us?

I can't speak to Mr. Trump's motivations. I posted it because we're coming up on the two week mark. VP Pence's office also said the details behind his trip would be revealed "in a few weeks" bak when the cancellation happened. Judging from past experience, I am skeptical we'll get any information of significance. We are coming up on the "two weeks" point soon.

Now been over two weeks with, to no one's surprise, no information provided.

Behind Pence’s Air Force Two cancellation: A drug dealer

Among the problems was a federal law enforcement probe involving individuals Pence would likely encounter, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the incident. If Pence stepped off the vice presidential aircraft, one of the people he would have seen on the ground was under investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration for moving more than $100,000 of fentanyl from Massachusetts to New Hampshire.

Jeff Hatch, who agreed in federal court Friday to plead guilty and will face up to four years in prison, works for an opioid addiction treatment center in southern New Hampshire that Pence was set to visit. A former New York Giants player, he has spoken publicly for years about his own challenge with drug and alcohol addiction, which ended his football career.
