'Integrity And Faith': Mike Pence Commends Convicted Jan. 6 Rioter Who Refused Pardon
HuffPost
Pamela Hemphill, known as “MAGA Granny” after the riot, explained why the message from the former vice president was "more than worth it."
Former Vice President Mike Pence recently penned a letter to a woman convicted for her role in the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, riot, praising her decision to turn down a presidential pardon from Donald Trump.
Pamela Hemphill, a self-described “ex-MAGA Granny,” took to social media Tuesday to reveal that the former veep declared that her “honorable decision speaks volumes” about her “commitment to the Rule of Law.”
“I am certain that your willingness to accept responsibility has inspired many Americans by your example of integrity and faith,” read the letter dated just one day after Hemphill explained why she refused the pardon on CNN.
Earlier this month, Hemphill — who spent two months in a federal prison and remains on probation for a misdemeanor count of demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building — told CNN’s Pamela Brown that she didn’t want to be part of Trump’s “narrative,” saying that accepting a pardon would be a “slap” in the face to Capitol police officers and the rule of law.
“The cost of continuing to lie or be dishonest with yourself, it’s not worth it. It’s not worth — anything they want to do to me, it’s OK. I’m not worried about nothing,” she explained at the time.
