U.S. Vice President Mike Pence will reportedly attend the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.
A loyal lieutenant to President Donald Trump, Pence was criticized by the president over his role counting Electoral College votes in Congress and was one of the people trapped inside the U.S. Capitol when Trump supporters stormed the building as the votes were being tallied.
Sources have been quoted as saying, "While the vice president and his family were in a bunker in the Capitol, the president did not reach out to check on his safety nor did he condemn those who said the VP should be executed."
Video shows rioters shouting, "Hang Pence!"
"We strongly condemn all calls to violence, including those against any member of this administration," said White House spokesman Judd Deere.
Other sources say ?Pence and Trump have not spoken since the riots unfolded.
