From the article:

"Raskin suspects the vice president's Secret Service agents were reporting to Trump's agents, and the plan was to take Pence away from the Capitol to corrupt the certification process as part of the insurrection.

"[Pence then] uttered what I think are the six most chilling words of this entire thing I've seen so far: 'I'm not getting in that car,'" Raskin said. "He knew exactly what this inside coup they had planned for was going to do." "

From that quote it can either be read as Pence knew he was in physical danger, OR he knew that if he allowed himself to be driven away, the motherfuckers were going to overturn the election.

It can be read either way. But either way, it's still damning.
