"I think once you become, you know, second lady, life changed a lot for us. In fact, during the transition, we rented a home near D.C. And I remember walking in that home the first day -- and Secret Service had put a butcher block paper, you know, all over the windows -- and you couldn't even see outside," she said.
"Well, the Secret Service are phenomenal men and women," she replied. "And they made it clear to us right away that, you know, there might be a point where we would need to move to a different location. "Responding to a muffled roar in the distance, my wife closed the drapes over the large windows facing outside to the north, as our lead Secret Service agent returned to make one more urgent plea for us to leave," he continued. "I pointed my finger at his chest and said, 'You're not hearing me. I'm not leaving.'"
Karen and Charlotte Pence stayed at the Capitol until the early morning hours of Jan. 7, 2021, when the gavel finally fell, and President Joe Biden's victory was affirmed. Noting this fact, Pence has called himself "truly blessed."When he launched his campaign for president in June, Pence said it came after prayer and deep reflection with his family -- and two and half years after Trump "demanded" he choose him over the Constitution.
