Mike Pence asks Indiana Supreme Court to stay out of his redacted emails

Fatima Hussein , [e-mail] Published 1:31 p.m. ET Feb. 27, 2017 Updated 27 minutes ago

Vice President Mike Pence continued to fight to keep secret a political white paper emailed to him while he was Indiana governor, petitioning the Indiana Supreme Court not to review a public records denial for the controversial papers.

If opened, the communications could reveal a slew of Republican political strategies that Pence and dozens of other U.S. governors devised to fight former President Barack Obama and an executive order of his concerning immigration.

If the justices take the case, the court also could redefine the bounds of open, public communication for Indiana's executive office.

What's Mike Pence hiding in his emails?*

The case stems from a public records request made in December 2014 by Indianapolis attorney William Groth, a Democrat, who was gathering information about the former Republican governor's use of outside counsel for the immigration litigation and its cost to Indiana taxpayers.

1. Well, who wants to see the Trump - Pence deal to bribe Carrier with Ind. state funds? We all do.

[MontanaMama]

2. Release his damned emails!!!

Why should his be any different from HRC's. Talk about a double standard.

Make no mistake. Pence is as evil as the rest of this administration. Nail him first. Then 45.

[calimary]

6. Hear hear!

And Here, NOW!!!

[madokie]

13. Yup

get rid of pence first then maybe just maybe dRumpF will pick someone to take his place that isn't quiet so odorous. I'm really not so sure that the pool he has to pick from he can find that person though
Worth a shot though

[OnDoutside]

3. Is there a deadline when we can expect a decision ?

[shrike]

4. I hope Mein Pence is quaking in his boots.

[Gamecock Lefty]

5. I agree with MontanaMama!

Pence first then 45!

The only redeeming thing about 45 (if there is any) is that I don't think he believes anything he says. Pence, on the other hand, cloaked in the flag and carrying a Bible - get him first!!!

8. Perhaps if it can be proven that Trump used the Russians then we could throw the whole

election out

[Angry Dragon]

7. maybe we could ask the Russians to hack it

[gordianot]

10. They probably already have it.

I doubt there is much said in private that is worse than what he says in public.

9. Come on, justice.

[mahina]

11. Annoying is an understatement! Jaysus. It bamped Bob Dylan and The Band singing "Forever Young"

I'll read it later, when Bob and all are done healing my soul. You may want some too,

Appreciate the link though, speakers off.
