Newsmax host and staunch Trump defender Greg Kelly whined on Wednesday about former Vice President Mike Pence saying he would consider testifying before the House Jan. 6 committee if asked to do so.

Pence, according to Kelly, shouldn’t appear, in part because the committee said “not a word” about Ashli Babbitt, the pro-Trump rioter who was shot and killed by a Capitol police officer (who was later cleared of any wrongdoing) while attempting to breach the Speaker’s Lobby on Jan. 6.

“This guy—forgive me—is wooden and weird and not ready, just not ready,” Kelly said of the former vice president. “And how dare he entertain going to this crazy, undemocratic Jan. 6 committee, which didn’t even ask [about or] raise her name: Ashli Babbitt. Not a word about Ashli Babbitt.”
