Pence will no longer speak at Koch brothers-hosted summit

The Associated Press, The Miami Herald

"SNIP..........


RICHMOND, VIRGINIA
Vice President Mike Pence will no longer be speaking at a Saturday event hosted by a group backed by the conservative Koch (kohk) brothers.

Pence had been scheduled to address Americans for Prosperity in Richmond, Virginia. He has canceled in order to join President Donald Trump at Camp David Friday to discuss South Asia policy.

Pence is also returning early from a weeklong trip to Latin America in order to attend the Camp David meeting.

Americans for Prosperity is the flagship organization of the political network backed by industrialist billionaires Charles and David Koch. Pence had been scheduled to address a group of "grassroots volunteers."

I bet. More likely Twitler will be given the choice of doing as he is told or resigning due to an unspecified physical ailment.
