Pence's older brother retiring as Cummins executive

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by DonViejo (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: Fox 59

One of Vice President Mike Pence’s older brothers is retiring as an executive with southern Indiana-based engine maker Cummins Inc.

Sixty-year-old Ed Pence is the vice president of strategic initiatives for Cummins and says his final day will be at the end of January. He’s worked since 1981 for the company that’s headquartered in his hometown of Columbus.

Pence says he’s willing to help both his vice presidential brother and older brother Greg Pence who’s running for Indiana’s 6th District congressional seat that Mike Pence once held.

The article neglects to mention that Cummins Inc. is controlled by the Russian state-owned heavy machinery concern Kamaz.

I'm sure this having recently come to light had nothing to do with his retirement.

I remember the good old days when Republicans were suspicious of Kerry because he spoke French.

And now, it's as if the Russians had taken over our federal government.

What? Not a joke???? You're kidding.

My favorite little absurdity from the freedom fry era, was hearing that Bush voters would boycott French wine (remember that?).

The only way a boycott from Bush voters could have possibly worked, is if the French had made pork rinds, cheap whisky and moonshine.

... "Is Cummins VP Pence’s Motive for Ignoring Cummings’ Warning Re Flynn? Cummins Literally Moves Russia, Including Military; Partners With KAMAZ Owned By Russian Gov Owned-Sanctioned Entities Rostec & Sberbank"

"VP Pence’s brother Ed appears deeply dependent upon Russia for some time – from 2005 as VP and General Manager of the Heavy Duty Engine Business of Cummins and starting in Feb 1, 2013 as VP and General Manager of the High Horsepower Engine Business of Cummins. Pence became Governor of Indiana in Jan. 2013. Cummins VP Pence appears the probable reason that US VP Pence ignored Congressman Cummings warnings about Flynn and Russia. It provides motive."

Many links at this site, SEC, Bloomberg, etc...

Maybe he's getting ready to leave the country with all that ill gotten cash.
This whole cabal is corrupt, they've been doing business with Russia for years.

The consensus of Forum Hosts agrees this retirement is not important news of national interest. Additionally, Fox is not a reputable mainstream news website/blog.
